You're right - the dispensations would make it a waste of a marquee slot, and if Merrin goes we've got a chance to make good use of it.

I think he only did it the once and that was against you. Tale was Luke and McShane were huge fans of Connor Magregor and had a bet who ever scored first would do the Magregor swagger

Blimey. Have you just come out of a coma and are catching up?

Slightly OT, but good luck to Aibigail Irozuru in the world athletics champs tonight. A brief retirement following a tear then a rupture of the same Achilles hasn't stopped her from qualifying for the women's long jump final, an event that I suspect must test such an injury to a greater degree than anything Gale's likely to encounter in rugby league. Other than bad luck, of course.

No just got internet back. LOL
