    Going by the bit of footage on the Rugby Club tonight I would be more than happy to see a straight swap of Mitchell for Turner.

    Turner already has the Tah taint. There is nothing we can do for him now. Call for the priest.

    I missed that one - He's looking good?

    Drew's best option would be to stay here. Everywhere else is full of pretty decent wingers, and he's got a starting spot here. I think it would be in his best interests to stay at the force

    A kick in this game is like a rather nasty alcoholic shooter, only as good as it's chaser...

    Watched the Tahs Brumbies tonight with a Fijian, he raised the point but I agree, Tuqiri is getting too slow for the Wing.
    He was caught out several times be Gerrard (not known for his pace) and AAC (who I felt had a very good match).
    We discussed whether he is starting to carry too much muscle after so long as a pro or if he is trying to do too much (ie cover for others).
    Either way I felt he got pantsed tonight, despite all the excuses the Fox boys came up with.

    IMHO Robyn, purely from the highlights, I thought he was back to his debut year best, followed by a pretty solid display again tonight.

    Commentators were right about the wingers not seeing much ball though Burgs.....Lachie missed out because they didn't pass it past Tahu (WTF was that all about?) Lote was more about him spending most of the game playing at 13, or 12, or 7.....you get the picture!

    That's fine for the attack, but, unless it's right in front of you, Wingers shouldn't be off their Wing looking for defensive work.
    But the real issue I am raising is that I reckon he has lost a yard in the last twelve months.
