What did he hold back? They were near full strength.
I thought they'd win comfortably, but after watching them on Friday I don't think their list is up to scratch.
They had nothing up forward except for Eddie.
If they succumb like that to the mid-range Lions (without Black, Leuenberger, Staker), then they've got a long season ahead.

Betts (broken jaw) Hampson (appendicitis)

not playing this weekeend

Rowe likely to make his debut in my opinion.

I thought Rowe would have been in the mix for next week anyhow. Even though the guy is a Ruck he looks to be a natural forward. He looks better than Casboult anyway. Hampson out makes hima shoe. Betts broken jaw??

With an overrated hack maxwell as captain, I wouldn't be potting other clubs' skippers.
Did anyone else notice how crook Kouda looked?

Correct. Betts out will be a big loss. We had a 'b' grade team in last year in round 15 I think it was and won. I have tickets to this match and will thoroughly enjoy the 90,000 plus crowd/atmosphere win lose or draw.
