Official Thomas Hazelton

[MrDravid]

Need to start a rumour that Sharks are looking at NAS, Hass and Fifita all at once

What do you reckon the chances of Fifita opting in on his contract for '25 with the Titans being the basket case they are?

 

[BurgoShark]

For the Olam try? Blayke and Jack I'm still trying to understand so won't touch.

Api being so bloody tiny didn't help the big fella but yeah lazy effort just sticking out the arm.

Yeah.

Tom lay on them and they couldn't get up. Was a comedy of errors.

Knowing we've got Hunt, BHU, Finucane & Rudolph all out possibly injured I wonder whether that might give Hazelton one of his 1st chances to be a starting prop with probably Tapuha his (Hazeltons) general place on the bench? He's been a top prop for us since he started playing with us so there has to be sometime he gets a chance to start unless everyone thinks he's better as an impact player for us?

 

[Sir Chadley]

If all those guys are out, he’s obviously starting.

Borderline don’t have a choice haha

Jack the only other option really

 

[sharkboy18]

You'd like to think so, hope so anyway.

 

[Sir Chadley]

You'd like to think so, hope so anyway.

Besides Kaufusi who else would you start if Hunt, Finucane and Rudolf are all out?

 

[sharkboy18]

Hazelton is 99% probably the only option I'd say but if you look at it, Williams is pretty experienced & strong you might consider him just for the 1 game. Move Talakai to the backrow aswell in place of Williams having Iro starting for 1 game for Talakai. Nikora is out for 1 more game too.

 

[Gumby]

Time to give the bit nut a start.

 

[Sparkles]

Tommy is getting 40 minutes now, whereas Tuku was gassed after 10. If Tuku starts to match that it will be interesting, and a good problem to have.

Could happen... I'm amazed every game at the energy level The Nut has through longer and longer minutes

 

[Thresher]

Would to sse him versus Horsburgh

Such a good read. He steps up big time in this game I reckon.

 

[Walley_01]

Did he come off at all?

 

[BurgoShark]

Did he come off at all?

Yeah. Came off 5 before half time and then back on 10 in to second half. Went off with 13 to go.

Love this bloke. Well and truly deserves a spot in the 17 next year.

Nah there's no way you could move this bloke.

Honestly those who are injured should be the ones working their way back in. Hazelton should not be losing his jumper at all.

 

[Blue_Eyes84]

Fast becoming a leader in the team

 

[BrickMan]

This bloke is a deadset liability in defence

This bloke is a deadset liability in defence

Couple of weeks playing minutes way above his normal role. Works his ass off but needs to go back to 30-35 minutes. Will judge him off those games.
