@tim there you go

[sparky]

@stargazer That's commitment. Doing a Buck as it's called in the trade.

[Tim]

We better fucking get Papali'i and Tuipulotu.

[African Monkey]

@tim I hope like hell we get Papali'i, otherwise it's all on Adrian Choat with massive shoes to fill. Tuipulotu lets be honest we're not getting him.

[KiwiMurph]

I suspect we won't be getting Papali'i as Coles and Moody are being picked because they badly need gametime.

I would argue Tuipulotu needs more mins

I'm guessing we get him but not Dalton

[Stargazer]

@tim I hope we get to keep Evans for the Bay. Oh, and Brodie being released, of course!

[Canes4life]

@kiwimurph I hope you have both, I don't want any excuses when we come up the Island and give you a right old dusting.

Fox: "Papali'i took a bit of a rib nock in the Harbour game, and we won't risk him."

'We won't recruit rockstars': Dan McKellar keen to develop Brumbies

The Brumbies have already turned their attention to building a squad for the future.

[Canes4life]

@tim Woohooo.

[Chris B.]

@tim Joe Moody will be playing for Canterbury. Who was the other guy Fox said will be available from the 32?

Everyone from the "Nineteen" is available for their M10 Cup teams until their team is knocked out.

[KiwiMurph]

@chris-b Coles for Wellington isn't it.

[Chris B.]

@kiwimurph That makes sense! I was too busy cursing Joe Moody to register it.

[KiwiMurph]

@chris-b I hear you. When Aumua goes off for Wellington Coles will come on. Eek!

Interesting.

A quick google search and I see he has some Maori heritage

[Tim]

@duluth He's a Going nephew, I think?

[Duluth]

@tim That sounds familiar. I know he did a mormon mission so that fits in with the rest of the Goings, Millers etc
