Because Sharks fans think our centres are **** for some reason. Even Talakai who you could argue is just a stop gap solution has had an incredible season and been one of our best and most consistent players over the year.

Yea ok he prob isn't a long term centre but FMD what a player he has become, leaving him where he is for the time being isn't going to be a terrible thing but it's good if we are looking and considering other options too

I reckon Ronnie could go fairly well at centre, he is big enough, fast and strong enough and has decent ball skills but he is killing it on the wing now and wingers are key players these days. I would prefer it's Ronnie competiting for high balls and handling kick returns. His finishing ain't shabby either.

Ronnie could be ok at fullback, like a better Matt Wright but I would stick Dykes, Miller or even Hynes there before Ronnie
Congratulations on your shortest post of the year mate.

It is not just the centres but the whole team is ****. I wonder how the comments would be if came not second but second from last.

Well, put it this way, if he was in any danger of missing the start of the season, I reckon something would of come out about it. In this case, hopefully its a case of no news is good news.
Yeah, it did look relatively minor but still could have done so and been a 6-8 week out.
Fingers crossed for the no news is good news.

Must be a Grade 3 I'm guessing
Could be 2, MCL is an injury clubs would often prefer 3 over 2 as a complete rupture is a pretty quick easy surgical fix with a similar recovery time. Recovery time less affected by players rehab of it

He’s posting photos travelling Europe so it shouldn’t be too bad
Unless he had surgery in the day or two after it happened (and even then I’m not sure what the turnaround would be) probs grade 2 and legs brace then

I know some fans get a bit nervous when Ronaldo goes into niggle mode but I think he helped turn the tide yesterday.

Twice we'd had a player rag-dolled over the sideline and the doggies were really trying to bully us.

Ronaldo decided to get in their face and bring the situation to a head. After that things seemed to settle down and the dogs lost their bite.
