Very true. They both put in a great effort today. Unfortunately Ropati's hammy probably means he will be out for a couple of weeks, maybe longer if Inu goes well.

Is it a bye? Both players were named in the centres at the start of the match. I think this week will be a close run thing. I know JBro spent a good portion of the match at fullback, but I still be curious with the players' scorecards.

I know JBro went off injured, but wouldn't we just average out the minutes played? Can we please get an official ruling on this?

What is it, when JBro covers at fullback, that he doesn't suck any more???

Sweet as dude, I will run them down tomorrow out of interest. I don't think Ropati played 60 minutes, which is the baseline for comparing. And he played almost exclusively at fullback; ie he didn't make (or miss) ANY tackles haha. Actually does anyone know what minute he came off? I can't find a minutes played stat.

That's cool, mate. Yeah, I think JBro came off around 10mins after half time, because I remember woohooing around that time.

But no, JBro had a good game today. But I think Henry had an even better game.

In that case....

Of course it's a bloody bye. Fullback and centre is apples and oranges.

A good defensive fullback doesn't need to tackle!? Right time to dump Locke forever and bring in the Fish, all this tackle making nonsense is not on.
