Bit harsh on the wording when you consider the Rebels let Maddocks leave while contracted.

I wonder if it is Newsome or Nawaqanitawase to the bench. I'd be curious if the later pulled up 100 percent this week after that awkward landing. Was happy to see him up and walking after the game because that really didn't looked good at the time.
I'm also curious when we'll get to see Lasila.

Did not see that side.
Tepai already dropped.
Mr can't tackle Newsome in the defensive role of 13.
Hunt kept but Foketi to the bench?

If I were the rebels I would run at that backline all day

WTF?I have no idea what the logic is in some of those decisions, thankfully I will be out Friday night watching old mans music and will skirt through the "highlights" when/if I can stomach it

Hodge and To'omua need to pass concussion protocols today, To'omua past the test during the match but was ruled out by video footage.
Could be some very good match ups in the back lines. Don't think the Tahs have much advantage in the forwards either. Front rows should be even enough. Second rows even enough and depending on selections back rows could be the same. Rebels need to pick a more balanced back row rather than going for large bodies.

Sounds crazy to be happy for your two more senior Wallabies to sit out, but forcing a start from Deegan and a more natural player at 13 might be the tonic we need. Hopefully Lomani's service is crisper this week, he's been guilty of the Genia two-step recently, despite having a ripper pass.

Haven't seen Newsome play at OC which is commonly thought of as one of the more difficult positions defensively to play.
Based on his two outings so far this season would imagine the amount of traffic coming through the 13 defensive channel might rival the M1 on a Friday afternoon.

Penney: Newsome, when I said tackle everything that comes your way I didn't mean your own team mates."
Newsome: Well it's not like I can tackle the opposition, they are scary."

That's the thing with following a fourth rate competition, no actual media interest or accountability. If this was an AFL team there'd be 10 different media outlets covering it!
