Wallace and Prince were always going to get their last hurrah's, let's just focus on the "last" part and celebrate it together.

NRL website has named Maranta, but news.com.au has named Kahu.

* Broncos site has Maranta. Doh!

Should have Oates in the under 20's IMO, at least they have something to play for.

Not really.

He's still eligible for the finals.

Will Wallace do a lap around the field after the game?

Yes really, one side is fighting to be at their best when going into the finals and could really do with a player of Oate's quality, the other will probably at best win in a scrappy affair, but I'm expecting another subpar performance that will mean little in the end and could easily hit a new season low with nothing to play for.

It wouldn't make a huge difference and the first grade team requires him because of how low their backline stocks are.

Could also argue it'd be a bigger mental boost to have him exclusively during the finals as opposed to on the eve.

Actually it'll be interesting to see how the fans respond to him if he does do a final lap.

Similar to this I'm guessing..



As long as Griffin doesn't pull players off the field when they put us in a position to win (Parker, McCullough last week) we should be alright.

Isn't he a half that's being turned into a hooker, like Hunt was?

He plays 6 with Strasser at 7. He doesn't play hooker.

He's not up to NRL yet, his form was good the last quarter of the year.

If Wallace does a lap of honor he deserves to be applauded of the field as he has given his all for us.

Be interesting to get Mr Fourex's insight :001_tt2:

Cullen has played hooker through out the year. However, he's been starring in the halves for the Dolphins.

I wouldn't have been against giving him a go off the bench as a reward for his form. It wouldn't make much difference in the scheme of things and would have been a pretty bad way to farewell Wallace but as a fan I want players to be held accountable for last week's performance.
