This from some tuck shop boss for schools in WA after banning ham in the ruck shop…

“When parents are packing a lunch box and they are having a ham-and-cheese and salad sandwich once a week, that is OK.”

How about you GFY lady…  Fekking bureaucrats… How king before they allow only plant and insect based products to be sold???…

Bout time these egomaniacal fekkers remembered they are here to serve, not rule…

Was it a Muslim or Jewish school?

I don’t imagine they would require Ms. Whatshername to intervene… they are answering to a higher power…

Good news the team list for the first trial is named.

Hutch and Burto in the halves, Sexton on the bench, Hayward and O'Neil on an extended bench.

I can't see the young halves getting many minutes...

Taffee at fullback and likely to be fir first choice round 1.

Overall a fairly strong side....

And I have nearly worked out what "Swifties" are.... :)

I see Harry Hayes is named in the 19 jersey…right up your Harry alley HD???…

I also noticed ‘Maxwell’ King posted on TK… Does  that mean his new moniker is Ghislaine or is it #metoosoon for that???…

On that note.. pretty sure Me Too Soon is an Aussie lady golfer…

OK… I’ll see myself out…try the veal…

Harry is a winger,but I am banking on a Harry led recovery....

Sadly what happened to 3 friends Tom, Dick and Harry is revealed in a Rowan Atkinson sketch.

Maxy King is an essential signing, I am giving him  the keys to Dman's alcohol cabinet...

One of those Swifties is a HD agent, they are trained to deny it, but prolonged exposure to ABBA may crack them ...#Expendable.

I wouldn’t worry about King leaving. He is a cert to sign on for a long time. It would be very beneficial if we could hurry it up though to get him as cheap as possible. 

Pumped for the trial tonight.

Prolonged exposure to ABBA would surely send anyone insane. Country and Western music is a good alternative.... similar results.

First half review. Playing intelligent patient footy, it's good to see. Unfortunate about the last try to storm but you could see that coming, good on them though, it worked.

Hughes was good like I hoped he would be, 

Some young guys got a run and went OK.

Second half was always going to be like that. 

We have some good players to add, Kicks, Critter, Foxy, Kiraz, etc.

Next trial NRL round 1 players should get more minutes. 

Halfback might be hard to split.

I thoroughly enjoyed the game and even though it was a trial I am absolutely convinced we've turned the corner. We'll lose some games but I reckon we'll win more. Great depth and abundance of experience this year. Skelton looked awesome, Xerri too and Faamusili is a beast.

You can tell already O'Neil is a gun player....

Suddenly we have 3-4 good candidates for halfback this time last season we had Flanno and Grub.

We have too many halves which is a great thing. Burton will need to pull his finger out or he will end up being replaced. 

Our young forwards impressed me. Hughes and Todd were machines. And Faumisili and Kautoga owned their spots. Very good against a reserve grade side. Looking forward to seeing them play in the first few rounds. 

Still our lack of strike with so much possession was a worry. Taaffe cost us four try’s. He just needs to make the right decisions. Xeri should play round one with that effort. Although young Clark was as good or better, but clearly needs time. 

I like our style of play and defensive system. Hopefully the boys can do it against real opposition.

Yep I am optimistic.

While it was only a trail and mostly reserve graders in the second half, our young reserve graders looked better than the Storm.

Our forwards looked OK in that game, Hughes was the player I hoped he would be. The others delivered as expected. 

Not sure about Knight a couple of errors, if Patolo/Sutton comes back and plays well Knight needs a good performance  next trail.

The young unknown guys in the backs were good. I don't count Wilson and Skelton as unknown, they also looked good. 

Some slick tries by us, and Wilson should good on the dance floor. Scoring a try like that beating the other dude pointless is great to watch.

Just watched the replay of the game and it was pleasing to see us do well in attack and defence.

I was happy seeing players in motion, deep backline plays but most of all I liked what I saw from Hutch and Taaffe who played eyes up footy instead of premeditated plays.

I also liked what I saw in defence with tacklers releasing and getting back to marker quickly. 

This being a trial meant lots of interchanges and lots of positional changes. We seemed to transition well and didn't miss a beat.

Only low points were seeing Perham tested and seated next to Crichton (I'm concerned CC is saving him) and Liam Knight having a shocker pushing passes and spilling balls.

Other than that, I was impressed.

Xerri did well for his first game back in a long time. Salmon just about cemented the 13 jersey. Curran will be benched. 

It looks like it will be Xerri -Chrichton in the centres with Taaffe at FB and Burton -Hutch in the halves although Sexton played well too and will keep the pressure. 

Competition is hot. I'd ultimately like to see Hutch-Sexton in the halves but I'm sure CC will only do that if he has no choice

I forgot about Perham centre is probably his best position,  more of a depth player this season.

Storm didn't have a full strength forward pack, their 3 best middles didn't play. Out of their first choice spine only Paps played.

That doesn't devalue what we did, at full strength it would be a good contest IMO.  We would certainly do better than previous seasons.

I hope we play against some quality big middles next game, that will be a good test for our defence.
