I doubt it but I hope they bring in Collins for Kane (Jane) Evans also Carter for Guerra would be nice as the team would have a lot more energy and the Knights will throw plenty at us as they would think we are ripe for the picking.

Evans is such a powder puff and I believe probably headed to Eels so why do we persist with him?

Kane Evans is a Fijian international! We don't have any others in the squad apart from Elon Vunakece.
