Looking forward to a Saturday night match but unfortunately going out for my mates birthday! Damn him.

Only change is Ah Van for Wade so it seems Vatuvei is fit to play.

He played there twice last year and played a total of 15 games for us. He has been tested before and succeeded. I am guessing Kirk is still injured which is a pitty. Would have been nice to see what he was capable of.

Good to see Ah Van was available. What a mess that could have been...

 

[boldy]

Whats happened to Villa these days? Is he still playing for the sharks?

 

[Sanchez]

hes in esl now

 

[AliN]

With the Sharks playing on Monday night, plus a few of their team in the City/Country match Thursday night, plus their coach telling it like it is, we must go in as favourites.

Let's hope their no complacency because of that.

 

[Sanchez]

hopefully cleary will stamp that out

 

[douglasallen91]

hes in esl now

at harlequins and can;t make their top team!

 

[Fast Eddie]

He's gone downhill.

But then again most players who play in good teams do after a while.

Good teams make decent players look great.

 

[Sanchez]

two late changes reported today on radio sport

j ro in for georgey gatis and louie anderson in for corey lawrie

 

[Jesbass]

Did they say why Gatis and Lawrie are out, Sanchez? Injury?

 

[MKEB...]

So much for the idea of working to earn your place.

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

FFS
J Ro comes into a winning team

 

[Martli]

I wonder how they're going to use J ro?

Put him in the centres and chuck mannering in the 2nd row? f**k that!

 

[MKEB...]

As much as I like Louie... Bets on what minute he gives away his first penalty? Anyone? Anyone?
