Mateo was 18th man and warmed up with the team.
Lets hope that the loss adds all the 'tapped' players back into the pool for next week 🙂

Just not sure why you play career NSW Cup players over City/Country quality players and previous NZ Internationals? Something doesn't add up? John also appears to have been dropped from NSW Cup?
Surely Barrett knows what he's doing, and he'll pick quality over known next week I hope.

Titans v Knights may have us skyrocket to 14th 
Ash Taylor should guide the Titans to victory over a rookie Knights side

Look at the nsw cup thread. None of the first graders played that well. BJ played ok and Mateo must have dropped the ball 5 times in the first half alone.

Confirmation @SSFCRABBITOHS both Adam Reynolds (jaw - indefinite) & John Sutton (pectoral - four months) will be sidelined. @7NewsSydney
We play the Rabbids on the 31st March - need all the help that Karma can shove our way

Quite a few media outlets had it reported as an ankle "injury" for Mateo. Given he played NSW Cup then that sounds fishy, so not sure what went on then to be honest. They may not have wanted to risk him and the extra day gave him a chance to play, or maybe he just got overlooked for Vave.

Sea Eagles write up said he was one of their best, and scored 2 tries. Ah well. Hopefully the best team gets picked this week.

Big blow @RaidersCanberra: Blake Austin out for up to 8 WEEKS with knee injury. Aiden Sezer 1-2 with fractured eye socket. @7NewsSydney
Round 1 was carnage , and not only on the scoreboard at Brookvale.
And that probably puts an end to Blake Austins hopes for a Blues jumper as well.

Players are too big and the game is too fast for the human body.
Reynolds must have broken his jaw the tackle before he noticed, as his face barely hit the thigh of the opposition already on the ground - really weird injury.😕

Drags v Scumos about to start - Go Benji

There is no A.I. Just better computers
We got out of it pretty well, only lost on the scoreboard ( no biggie due to a new team)
If we are 1/3 or 2/5 with no injuries we will be going well.

Your right the game is becoming tougher. So many heavy collisions each game. Im sure if i took one tackle from a first grade match id be out for the year. Goin be alot of injjuries this year and a war of attrition for every team.

Drags getting screwed by the Refs big time - 68mins knock on call even had Brandy spewing 😡
Refs walked the Scumos in 18-16

Agree. Triple M commentators said 4 dud calls against the Dragons.

Why can't the Bunker make a call on knock ons?
It so obviously went backwards, that they could overule it in a second
