Maybe Ricky will pick Albert Hopoate to play against us. That would be hilarious.

It's only a game ...
He played in last week's trial, so may get another run this week (maybe marking Saab)

Albert is list to play on the wing.
The faiders are near full strength. Should be a cracking game.
Probably has a lot to prove...

Must be giving Tutufua a pity run, leaving Vaega out for him makes no sense.

It seems Des is honing down his squad for Round One. All bases are covered in this week's 25 man team. The only likely additions for Round One would be Harper & Davey (if available). Similarly, it appears the players left out this week won't be considered for Round One, i.e.
- Alec Tuitavake
- Alfred Smalley
- Fletcher Myers
- Gordon Chan Kum Tong
- Jacob Sykes
- Jamie Humphreys
- Josh Aloiai
- Morgan Boyle
- Raymond Tuaimalo Vaega
- Viliami Fifita
- Zac Fulton
Well, if it‘s still raining up here on the Coast tomorrow night as it is now, and has been for the last few hours, the boys are going to need snorkels for when they’re tackled, as there’s every chance that they’ll drown otherwise.
I’ve got say that, if it is raining like this tomorrow, then forgive me, but I might sight disgression as the better part of valour, and give it a miss as it’s only a trail game and watch it on TV.
Hopefully, that won’t see me banished from the Silvertails site.

Koula has the athleticism and physicality to dance with the big boys and the pace to leave them for dead
Really solid 17 I dont think much will change before round 1.
Im interested to see this running game Croker has supposedly developed in the off season.

Let’s all have a chew!
What’s the point in playing Tom and our main guys in a game like this in the wet? Play a mix of firsts and others. No idea why we’d risk injuries to the stars in wet conditions.

I think the NRL have started placing more importance on pre-season trials, as over the past couple of years they've gone from poorly covered & commentated games to full coverage by Fox (& Kayo) with the season proper commentators calling them.
No doubt the NRL see them as money making opportunities & have told the clubs they have to field their superstars for at least half a game to fulfill financial obligations?

Yep, but he played in last week's trial so would he not be eligible for this one as well?
No I heard the players asked Dessie to play after last seasons slow start.
And all clubs are playing most of their guns, it is important to fine tune things and blow away rust

Couldn't agree more. Surely both Vega and Tuitavake deserve another trial chance after last week against a stronger side this time. Hope someone is in their ears of these guys keeping them close to the club.
I suspect Dessie is wanting to get his Round One combinations right.

Is Koula playing?
