Sounds like Croft is OK, will obviously miss next week. Edgell to full back, Connor in the halves, unless Miller is ready.

Played a lot better without Smith

Palasiea very impressive, think he did about 70mins

Agreed, at least 50 of which was straight through.

Being on he field a long time, and being effective are not the same thing. Not hugely impressed by what I’ve seen of him so far. I’d remind you that Tetevano usually did quite long stints? That didn’t go so well and Palasia is a similar shape and size I think.

Well he's not got himself stupidly banned yet. The interchange was really messed up today with Croft, Smith and Frawley going off, he did well to play the extended minutes.

I agree but I thought he was quite effective today. Holroyd was also good off the bench and I liked what I saw of Jenkins, he reminds me of Anthony Mullaly but in a good way.

smith left the ground on crutches

Holroyd and Jenkins were our best props today. I really like Tommy, but he needs to do what he does more often.

So is it still Arthur out or...

was it ever arthur out?

Palasia to loose while he's out do we think? Spelled with JOC in game?
