    nah, he's been egging it on all day, i think he's trying a clever ploy whereby he gets us doing it for everyone so we all get sick of it and stop, it's worked a treat on me, i can tell you that much.

    There was a news piece on tv the other night where the Tits coach said he believes Arrow will play rep in the nect couple of years. He also said Latu has improved his fitness and looking to play his best football. The way the story was, it seems Arrow is highly rated and I see him playing big minutes whilst players like Latu come on as impact.

    Here's hoping!

    The thing that shits me about Arrow is that it feels like the same storyline I didn't buy into last year about Wallace. And that ended up being the wrong choice...

    Arrow was also highly rated by the Broncs but we have a stacked second row and have props like milf playing half. So had to offload him. I reckon he’s one of those players who will be an absolute workhorse. His stints with the Broncs - although minimal - showed some great improvement.

    Definitely seems like the coach really rates Arrow. Arrow and Wallace could be the big front row workhorses and it makes sense for Latu to come off the bench for 30. I think it's worth the extra 70K to get Arrow over Latu, especially if he gets DPP.

    Yep, definitely has an attacking game in him-I think his Premiership games maybe it wasn't so evident, but I remember a couple of trials when he was at the Broncs and he was always looking for an offload.

    Jrrow with DPP will be perfect on my 14-17 bench... good cover for Dlvaro and Modge

    Yeah he is loving Arrow and those concerned about his size. Looks a big enough boy to me, and this was still when at Brisbane, not training the house down!

    Rochow getting the nod with Eisenhuth on the bench is interesting and I don't quite beleive it yet.  Nofo named too.

    Sriffin playing hooker is tempting but how long would Levi stay out for if he does get cut?

    The bench looks good for Fifi, should play his 55 odd minutes like usual.

    If Murray still gets the 13 gig after playing no trials then you gotta punt on him I think.

    Where's Whare, Peachy named in centres?

    Nicholls worth a punt, but that bench is horrible. Gurgess could get good minutes too.
