[quote="Frank Zappa":1sacjrvf]Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.[/quote:1sacjrvf] [quote="The_Enforcer":1sacjrvf]Most idiotic post ever goes to Grimmy..... The way to restart should be an arm wrestle between a designated player from each side.[/quote:1sacjrvf]:



I'd run with Sam off the bench when he is back fit. He can come into the halves with Leuluai moving to hooker to give Powell/McIlorum a rest. Escare is doing too well at FB to risk moving him IMO. It also sends the right message to the fringe players in relation to selecting based on performance rather than reputation. Using Sam as a halfback also prepares us for if/when NRL/RU come knocking for Williams.

Honestly,one game on the bench for Tomkins and after that Escare will be "rested" don't know why its just a gut feeling the way it'll pan out.

As I said! (For once)! A simple decision. Sam and MM simply have to be given a chance to prove themselves.

No, Sam may have to target No7 and he could be
a star in that position. I remember the difference he
made when he came into the side at 6.
Thomas Leuluai will continue his influence at 9 but
he is getting near retirement I think. So there is a
future for Sam Powell.
