Quick hands. Just got off the phone with someone very much in the know at Hawkesbury, and they are still affiliated with Penrith, but have been trying very hard to return to their roots at Parra. There are obviously a number of "speed bumps", including SJRU. They haven't been happy with what has...
Don't disregard Parra, who should pick up the points (5) against Wests and after only going down by 2 points in the last minutes against Easts in round one, should reverse the result at home in the last round.
