Nothing wrong with the concept of the mid year test to grow the game, cant help that flights have been grounded for 2 days due to weather.

They should of been back today. 2 days makes a big difference with a long trip.

I like the concept in theory, if there's a way to structure it more practically then it'll do well.

The idea bouncing around of a mid-season rep break of a few weeks would make offshore test matches more viable, however I expect it'll be some time before any significant changes are made if at all.

If Griffin can't play we are in strife.
I believe Levi is struggling with his back injury again, and Buhrer is probably going to have to play half injured as well if Griff doesn't line up.
 
If we don’t win this, we’re bonkers. That Bulldogs team is horrendously bad. We aren’t too shabby but definitely better and I think the break/having a few players possibly back will jam a rocket up some. I think we should win comfortably.
 
We got Perenara as Ref, God help us

We have a great record under him too, 6 wins in 5 years

Played - 22
