f**king excellent.

 

[shadowboxer]

What a time the World Cup is.
Not

 

[Craigshark]

Report I read was calf for Uele and broken leg for the hammer

 

[Frenzy.]

Won't be surprised if TPP has an achilles injury. Although he went out of picture all he was doing was ambling down field after a kick and you could just see he went down like he'd been shot.

I deliberately made the effort not to know the score in the Poms v Samoans game. Ive just watched the replay and sheeze talk about a bit of a let down.

I was hoping that the big palokahs would bash piss and pick handles out of the saxon's but alas it twas not to be.

There is going to be some big scores during this event.

 

[Special K]

6 weeks for BHU. Not the worst. Anyone who goes to the WC would not train until Jan anyway.

I wish he got some big match experience but hey could be worse.

 

[Ozzi_78]

So not fractured then?

 

[Tucky]

So not fractured then?

Correct. Calf injury

Fullback for Italy is Luke Polselli - did he used to play for us in the 20’s maybe? Name sounds so familiar

 

[Special K]

Correct. Player of the year in 2018 I believe. Also Luke Pickard is in the Italy squad if anyone remembers him from those lean 20s years.

Question from the floor without notice:

Of the 13 other teams competing in this year's World Cup (i.e not Australia, NZ or England), how many players actually reside and play in the countries they are representing?

 

[Quigs]

Eight hundred and thirty seven with twenty six sharing residency bi annually.

You can lock that in Eddie

None from Samoa, Cook Islands or Tonga. A fair few from PNG.
The rest from the Northern Hemisphere would most likely play in the ESL and Championship.

Only turned 18 a week ago, the RLWC will be great for his development. Like to see him play some FB at some point
