I haven't seen Josh play Digicel Cup. I think he was straight up named as 18th men.

And yes Morea Morea has been playing at 6 for the Vipers lately and is playing very well too.
I thought last week he would have come in for Sani Wabo but instead Aiton gave Douglas David a debut at fullback.

thats a bad move for me as he should be playing digicel cup to bring his match fitness levels back up.

has he played halves before. Maybe junior levels?

I think it's a risk for Josh as well. I hope Aiton isn't panicking and risking another injury for him.
Maybe Morea Morea could play half at this level too.

So Judah Rimbu returns for the Hunters this weekend but fans are not happy that it has come at the expense of Gairo Voro. Last weekend Voro scored a try and laid on two assists and even made the Hostplus Cups Team of the week.

Rimbu is going to start at hooker and Finley Glare has been moved from hooker to 5/8 to replace Voro.
Many fans thought that Jamie Mavoko would be the one dropped but he keeps his place at halfback.

Josh Lau has been named on the bench in the number 14 role.

Did things not workout for him at Castleford?

He played around 10 games for Castleford and was MOM vs Huddersfield, I think.
But reading between the lines I think Cas suddenly needed to find a bigger middle forward urgently and they already had 3 other hookers on the books.
Letting go of Rimbu means a quota spot also becomes available so they can now recruit a big Prop with NRL experience.

And in another development announced to today the PNG Hunters and Capras are swapping players.

The SP PNG Hunters and the Rockhampton Capras have agreed to a player swap involving Hostplus Cup players Khaiya Waiembi and Morea Morea.

The decision was made to provide both players with increased game time and development opportunities within the Hostplus Cup competition.

Thanks mate, look forward to seeing him play for the hunters again. He's a really exciting player.
