True and Round 3, 4 and most of 5 they had Reynolds. Is it premiership hangover or is a case of everyone being more pumped when you play the Premiers?

Don't know mate. Maybe losing Burgess and Teo is hurting them more than people thought it would?

Premiership hangover is players being spent from the year before, and also slacking off because they won it last year.

P.Gallen said something similar to that in his interview on the big sports breakfast this morning.

Everyone figured Stewart would balance out Burgess and he kinda has although he doesn't bend the line as much - but Teo at the back end of last year was on fire he was really hard to handle. They are missing him a lot imo.

I think houma is our only other available prop. We really need to re-assess that area of our squad imo.

To be fair you couldn't plan for both fifitas to go down in the same week

Inglis is their plan A and B atm. We shut him down and we give ourselves a very good chance in winning the game.

Their ruck defence was really sloppy against cowgirls

I'd be starting Arona over Taga, with Bukuya on the bench. Arona was great last year but Flanno seems to have more faith in Taga, which evidence would suggest is missplaced.

If he is reluctant to start Arona at prop then play him at lock and gal at prop, but leave the numbers. From memory Arona played very well at lock at the start of last season.
