Just on Donaldson - every decent team/squad needs that type of player, committed, hard working and lets be fair not a huge drain on the salary cap, we've had these type of players throughout the recent success, he's been a real find IMO and hope he gets back sooner rather than later.

Both Lui and Hurrell looked well over weight - sad to see professional sportsmen allowed to get that big

Hurrell as always seemed to me to carry too much weight around belly.

What is still wrong with Crosby - surely he has had enough time to recover - two years must be enough?

I see this a lot "not a huge drain on the SC" he's a 1st Team regular his wage eill reflect that.
Admirable work rate but id rather see Walters or another younger forward given the chance.

They never really mention him anymore do they?

They probably made him redundant but no one told him + he just keeps turning up. No one has the heart to tell him they cancelled his contract

As for the game. I have already convinced mesen Saints will hammer us. So anything different is a positive I guess.

Hurrell told a mutual friend that he'd put 10kg on during lockdown. Maybe a bit tongue in cheek but when I saw him on Sunday it didn't look far off

I know he drives people mad with his handling issues but hes our biggest threat when he does hold onto it.
