Unless Riccio is a selector that seems fairly meaningless

How are people feeling about Tatola this week? Were the extra mins just a result of Burgess being a late out?
Just trying to work out whether 33 mins against the Storm was the norm or an outlier...

Lee returns from a hamstring injury. Trained most of today’s session at centre #NRL@NRLonNine @9NewsQueensland
Welp nothing to see here then, time to look elsewhere.
Annoying but not particularly surprising. Looks like Alamoti gets to keep sticking around.

I don't know if it means anything but Tatola's dad passed away in the week before he played 33 mins. They wanted to rest him but he was adminant he wanted to play (source was Demetriou interview on ABC Grandstand)

Haven't exactly been seeing banners. Mainly below average scoring?
I love this pride in the jersey !

It would have been big news if he kept the spot.
Its not exactly being dropped, when the guy you subbed in for due to injury, is now recovered from injury

Brenko needs him back on site anyway...there's a couple of slabs to pour this week

I reckon Val's better at sinking slabs than pouring them

I was stunned he was traded in by so many. I love the term 'dropped'. He was filling in for the regular starter due to injury.

Perhaps a lot of casuals?
Yaffs suggests only 58 of the top 1000 did.

I still think that's a significant number based on the bye and the uncertainty. Just a gamble that may not have paid off......yet.
Saying that, if Hammer plays Origin those 58 people may have an extra number in round 13. Not sure how the backs would line up. Tesi to FB I guess.

I swear this game knows my work schedule. Last week, I’m pretty sure it was already, if not nearly time to open when I was on my lunch break @10:45am. There have been many other weeks where I’ve had the day off or started later in the day and it’s just wait, wait…..wait. Just no consistency with these muppets running the show over there.

VTW not in would be very helpful.
Normally the outs I want are all cheap and the Ins I want all cost alot.
This week the outs i want are all pricey and the Ins I want to not be that cheap.
Reynolds Hosking Granville to Luki Edwards/Tatoloa Gun would be handy.

What Is Wayne Thinking? Future SUPERSTAR & Potential Origin Bolter Valynce Te Whare Has Been SENSATIONALLY DROPPED After Scoring Two MINDBLOWING TRIES On Debut.

What blows my mind is that I can still trade a dolphins player to another dolphins player at midday on Monday.

Pretty sure there is place there for VTW, maybe not CTR.
