I wonder how many extra people Buddy will draw through the gate.
I reckon his absence cost the attendance 10,000 last week (and the weather cost another 10k).

I can't believe they'd play him if there was any chance of the heel getting sore again. Our forward line has been going OK without him - not that we won't be better for having him back in, but it's not exactly panic stations. It's still the midfield that most needs to lift to improve all around performance.
Maybe we rushed him back to take advantage of the blocking rule.
Saturday. 6:30pm.
Late change. IN Towers. OUT Buddy
To please Clarko--> Umpires :15. Mathew Nicholls,18. Ray Chamberlain, (and 33. Brent Wallace)
What a couple of lovely surprises!!
We've lost it at selection, forward line can't possibly function with Buddy and Ronke!
We missed a bullet with no Stevic adjudicating the new interpretation, Reg would have given away a dozen frees! Good thing is we get to see the new interpretation in action so can see how it will be dealt with. No more blue murder for our backs, but also reckon Rance will no longer be CHB of the century!
How hard is it to predict the team changes each week? No one predicted the backflip on Buddy but I am also really surprised that Towers is one of the guys omitted. He was down a bit last week but he has been really good in all his other games and provides at least an alternative in the ruck. I really liked McCartin's game last week but would think that Towers offers more than him right now.
Buddy back , really ... what a legend !
It�s bizzarre, but I was looking forward to one more week watching the kids go round playing like lunatics without the omnipresence of the superstar.
