TBF that or something similar happened to lots of players for the whole game and several players were serial offenders. Anyone have any stats on who dropped it or had it ripped the most?

I meant Manu in defence! He disrupted numerous rucks and was great to see him being so physical again.

Would love to see a back 3 of May and Veainu on the wings with Holmes at fullback. Seems harsh on Thompstone who has been in great form this season but I guess it shows the competition we have in the back 3. I swear Veainu said he preferred playing right wing.

I guess the rest of the backline picks itself with Harrison, Toomua and Owen on the bench as they cover the most positions.

May has put a picture of a swimming pool on his instagram this morning so guessing he’s out. Veianu in for him leaving Holmes at fullback not a bad replacement
