considering all the crap manly had to go through to get approval to play fainu in first grade the nrl have just given this kid the ok to make his debut ( i don't hold anything against this kid or the knights in regards to giving him his first game in the 'big time' but the fact it was such an issue for us is where my issue lies)

NRL | Knights apply to the NRL for dispensation so that young hooker Tom Starling can debut against St George Illawarra on Saturday

Blame that flog Barrett for his 30 man squad selection.
He did go into the season with only 1, yes that's right, only 1, recognised hooker.
 
And , outside of Hastings , one kicker in general play in the top 30, ,DCE.

And he did that knowing his hooker, five eight and fullback couldn’t kick.

Hastings was also in mediation with the club over his misdemeanours well before the cutoff date for the thirty to be announced and as Barrett told Rothfield in his bitch session he let Green go on a promise from Moylans manager, also well before the March 1 cutoff.

So one hooker and one kicker in the 30.

If it wasn’t so sad it would be hilarious.
