Thursday game. Not a big fan of that but this is a really big game and one which we are usually up for.
Luciano will surely be back. Too bad for Big Ben who played his best game for us by far. I wonder if Flanno will be tempted to leave Luciano out. I wasn't really impressed by Tuipulotu. Haven't looked at the stats but I think he didn't get involved much and I wasn't happy mid-way thorough the second half the Warriors put a regulation half chip half bomb into the in goal and instead of just catching it, he tried to bat it dead but missed. Luckily it didn't amount to anything but I was wondering WTF he thought he was doing. Is Finau ready to step up? We really need him to be able. With a fast winger, Sloan at fullback and Lomax in the centres, our chronic lack of speed in the backline will be largely addressed.
On the flip side, the Rorters will be desperate for a win. Another loss will see them losing touch with the top of 4 if not the top 8.
