Team v Broncos

I'm sure you're right.
But starting injured players in key positions is a risky manoeuvre

Did Metcalf start injured? He actually took first shot (for Ford's try) so I assumed he was fine at that stage.

If he came into the game injured then yea, absolutely agree that's a terrible decision. But I think he was fine initially.

Yeah, he didn't get the cook till midway through the game

Taine in but not IN is interesting. Smoke and mirrors and he's really still injured, or just behind BIG ED KOSI in the pecking order?

ok so
Capewell in 2nd row
Halasima to bench
Niukore seemingly ok
same for Metcalf
Berry back
Tuaupiki available but Kosi preferred
Graham Taufa not required- yay

I would prefer Metcalf to have a week off to get right and TMM replaces him and Healey at 14
Niukore did not look good and I wouldn't be surprised if he is replaced by Afoa
I would prefer Tuaupiki for Kosi but Kosi did play well one game and is bigger

I reckon he comes in late. If he's in the 23, surely it means he's fit enough to be considered.

Kosi did play well in Cup. Scored a couple, defended well...
