An EPS you say? Like everyone else has? Ground breaking

Wow - thanks RR - maybe I was just trying to be helpful as there seemed to be some level of confusion.
Do I say anywhere that the concept was ground-breaking?

However, one aspect of the WF set-up is that the WF Academy players are integrated into as many of the on-field training sessions as possible.

Both Lomani & Sorovi back in the side for Fiji this Saturday as well as Stacey Ili starting for Manu Samoa. Well done to Jordy for getting another test clearly put in purely because he is the best scrumming 2 we have, don't think he might feature much in the RC but worth taking to Europe come the end of the year tour.

i assume Jordan has also improved his throwing, thats why he has been included after being initially left out. if he can throw better, scrum as he does and work rate around the ground improves he is clearly one of the best two or three hookers in the country

Yeah didnt have the greatest season coming back from inj & others may have pushed in front of him, However got his chance now & from our point of view really hopes he takes it.
I certainly dont want to bash this kid from the capital he just needs a couple of off seasons of steak & weights. he'll be right.

The club posted on insta happy b day to Rhys Van Nek so you would think that he prob would be around next yr. Bit of depth in the front row for us next season. Hopefully they all can stay fit!

Carter Gordon, RHP, Gibbon, Vaihu & Kemeny are all turning out for the Bulldogs today against Sunnybank. Good game to watch to see our future.


Just caught the mini on stan, personally not all over the hospital cup but it looked like the combinations from our boys in the back line worked really well. Gordon & Viahu were very very dangerous & Vuldogo managed to bag him self 4 tries!

Down side it looked like Josh Kemeny got inj & replaced after the 2nd try. Wouldn't mind seeing more of Richie Skelton 9 tries in his last 6 games from no.8 they said on the telecast.

Yeah I watch most Wests games for the Rebels boys and he has been good the big fella I wouldn’t mind giving him a shot

Skelton has been in great form.

But the development of the Vaihu brothers has caught my eye. Really exciting talents. Strong, excellent on their feet. Glen should be nailing down a super rugby spot next year.

I rate Jordie, and he deserved the start, Lonergan needs to improve his scrummaging but I think all the other Hookers were injured the kid from Perth and McInerney was knocked out in training.

Gordon looks to be developing really nicely for Wests. Such an assured player, doesn't look to make any mistakes. Beyond his passing and vision, he can really lay a shot on. Nice to see for a flyhalf. I'm very keen to see him next season. Can't believe the Reds gave him up so easily.

Vaihu is looking good too.

Watched the whole game yesterday, I know its club rugby & these boys should be dominate at this level but all Rebels players were the best on the park y day & Richard Skelton. Vudogo has 7 tries in 3 games! Viahu broke the line with ease Gordan attacked when he needed to attack made ground with his boot when he needed to. RHP played 6 but was a threat at line out & Hosea was brilliant, Matt Gibbon scrummed like he had several years of super rugby under his belt & lastly our best player was Josh Canham off the bench for bond. Kept them in the game purely by himself.

Yes, pulled a Wallabies by disregarding the Red card and dominating. Canham has no right being that good, he looks like the nerdy teenager that sells you popcorn at the cinema.
