Though wasn't aware there was a  situation in Lebenon around games being played.

"The Herald understands the Eels and Tigers were not particularly keen on Moses and Twal turning out given the workload the pair have carried for their respective clubs through the first half of the season".

"At the age of 35, Farah could certainly do with a week off.But he will be in the thick of things when the Cedars line up against Fiji and hopes others will do the same when the next opportunity arises".

Well if the reports are true that they’ve only played one domestic game in 2 years cos of administrative issues then its hardly surprising

Administrative issues?

Have they got enough blokes to make two teams, to kick it off?

Or is it all phoney-baloney? (where have I heard that saying before?)
