Yes,
I enjoyed last years event.

I have actually booked Monday off work to recover from the sleep dep

Agreed but different reasons.

If they were playing in the Auckland 9's they would be destroyed so waste of time.

If the SL/RFL had the gumption there would be the equivalent happening on these shores or say Catalans/ Barcelona for the weather.

Yes

Some clubs have rested their international players (e.g. Melbourne, North Queensland,) but NZ Warriors haven't, and Manly is using its star halves, as is Sydney Roosters.

The Storm didn't take it too seriously last year as i recall.

I will be in attendance......

No.

Party pooper!

This is a context in which the speed and footwork of the sublime Shaun Johnson, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, and Anthony Milford, plus Daly Cherry-Evans, and Mitchell Pearce, and the blistering pace of David Mead, Marika Koriobete, Tim Simona, and James Roberts, will come to the fore.

Dazzling tries from the maestros. It is a mistake to miss out on these games.

I have a gun and a shovel if you need somewhere to lie down for a while.....

Definitely watching as much of this as I can. Last year's tournament was brilliant, hoping for more of the same.

I'll be watching as much as I can, when I can.

NZW were the stand-out team last year but the unfancied NQC did the business when it mattered and the difference from them was their intensity in defence. Probably fairly open this time and any team could win that takes it seriously.
