NRL Late Mail Round 16: Fa’alogo fears allayed, Curran bench worry

I've finally re-emerged in the Playbook starting side after missing through high-grade holidays and wow, what a fortnight I've missed. The Wi-Fi was sketchy in Thailand and every time I was able to check the app, it seemed I had at least one less green tick in my team. But the all inclusive poolside cocktails softened the blow somewhat and after two weeks R&R I'm ready to run it back for the second major bye round. Big thanks to Lakey, Tim and the Playbook crew for keeping things rolling while I was away #NextManUp All the updates across the round will come via @scplaybook1 on X/Twitter and Instagram, as well as myself @ASt
