Looks like the new regulations is going to make recruitment trickier for all clubs.
Against that backdrop, retaining Michaels makes sense.
Don't need Rankin, we've got an upgrade in Connor.

Miloudi just scored a double for the reserves on debut, including the winner.

Whoever was disappointed that we kept Talanoa, is a bonafide idiot. Beast today, and even more important with Mahe going.

I think all questions over Talanoa have been due to his injury record not ability. Everybody knows how talented he is.

Carlos, Tuli and Fonua were all immense. Tuli and Fonua are like two extra forwards. Carlos is a constant threat with his footwork. Superb.
Crazy thing is, under the new regulations, we wouldn't be able to bring them in now.

Nice to see the Wembley dream team of Fonua and Michaels reunited!
Michaels did nothing wrong yet again, and constantly pokes his nose through the line. A must keep on this years form?

We will lose something significant in the team if we don;t replace fonua with a similar type of player IMO
