There is no honour in playing for a draw in a trial match.
How are the SA teams doing in their trial matches, Shaun? Didn't the Sharks used to head over to England to play their pre-season games? I wouldn't have thought that this was an option any more given they play the 'original' rules in Europe (not an ELV in sight).
Based upon lineups at the trial Chucky will be the backup half for Henners at least until Clarkie's fit! I'm not sure that will see him gain a spot on the bench though, we have a perfectly able cover in Gits and plenty of players with the utility tag on them who can cover the 10-12 slot. That's more likely to be the pattern.
This will all change if Henners gets the chop though! I don't think Gits will spend stacks of time at 9 unless Mitch is desperate, Chucky might get blooded next week if Henners is on the outer! If he doesn't handle it, expect to see Adam or Rabbit getting a go early!
Chris O'Young, whatcha doing?
Unnamed Sources have indicated that one of the reasons Chris left the Force was because he was fit and ready to go at #9 and kept his fists and mouth to himself off the field yet Yak always got the spot.....I would say Chris knows a little more about Yaks skeletons and drinking issues.
FYI...pics from the game uploaded.. Cheers to Jargan's Mrs for sending them on...
