One of his less interesting Vlogs....I felt like the guys were training in slow motion, having said, that I'm sure he had to stage a bit of it, and they probably told him which parts he can film.
A bit of talk about Naden and Doueihi fighting it out for a centre spot, presuming Olam gets the other spot.
So does that mean Skelton and Turuva get the wing positions?
There does appear to be genuine competition for spots in the backline with Staines, To’a, and Lualilii all thereabouts too.
Halves are settled.
Starting props, I reckon, are May and Klemmer. Hunt, Twal, and Fainu to fight it out for off the bench (along with Pole if he is used more at prop this year).
Second-row appears to be Fainu and Seyfarth, although Bird might end up on that right edge and that means starting with a Matamua, Pole or Kit Laulilii in the 13.
I reckon Bird will start at 13 though as he is the most experienced and qualified link man for Luai and Galvin.
Looking forward to the trials…although having the football back is stressful too 😂

We are desperate for Matamua to do something, far too weak in the backrow.

If he can play that link role and hold his own defensively so many issues are solved. Pole goes to prop rotation and Bird on the right edge etc.

Been re watching games from the first half of last year (desperate I know) and Staines just can’t be in the first choice team. The rugby winger that has just left after 1 season out performed him.

Another player that came to the club and has struggled to play good consistent football.
Maybe that changes this year.

He had the same issue at Penrith though.

Just heard on the arvo news that Luai is having scans for a leg injury and may not be ready for Round 1.
Please don't burst the HOPE bubble before the season even starts. 🙏

Sounds like it's just a minor thing. I'm not worried at this point.

Had scans last week, nothing major by the sounds of it.

Club confident he will be fine for round 1. Even heard comments he will be ok for first trial.
