Hope he has a sensational game.
Same here. We don't seem to do milestone games too well. The notable exception in my memory is Simmo's 250th. Hopefully today can be the start of a better tradition.

The old Ruckmen's Rain injury!

I've never heard that phrase. For us, one less headache, and one less tall to worry about.

Won't be raining (much if at all) today.

Yet they replaced 200cm x 110kg ruckmen with a 185cm x 85kg forward.

So the ONLY reason that Tippett COULD have been left out was because of the rain....that wasn't expected. :o
Perhaps....now stay with me here...perhaps they replaced him because he was carrying an injury and didn't come up. Shocking i know, but very much possible.
He was listed as an out (hip).
EDIT: my emergencies list was incorrect.

Anyway....in replaceing him they had 3 choices on who they could choose as it has to be from your emergencies.
Those 3 choices to replace him were...
1. 187x85 Newman
2. 186x74 Hewitt
3. 181x71 Cunningham
Guess which one they chose.
Conspiracy theory much?!
If Tippett was injured, and you knew it, why would you name three medium / smalls as emergencies?

Maybe they don't have a backup for his position worthy of a spot on the list.
If Rowe was injured and a late out today....who could we pick to replace him like for like?
