    Arona was also named in the 18, interchange to be picked from the 5.

    Moga off the wing, finally. Morts gone, Nafe back.....Bwian really is throwing mud.

        Bosden deserves a chance, he looks better than Arona and is probably all round better than Taka.

        Makes no difference anyway we will have no chance if that dud is at fullback.

          I just can't understand Smiths selection policy, last weekend Henry played left centre, this week he is right wing, Moga moves from left wing to centre and then RTS switches from right wing to left, how is the team meant to build any combinations when the same players are playing different positions every week.

          then theres the issue of Mortimer being dropped for Seluini, what was the point of Mortimer playing last week in the first place, he needs to stop changing teams depending on who we are playing, just pick our best combination at let them play.

            If this is indeed the way they lineup I think it's great, Moga is so good at putting his winger away. Aside from playing fullback this is the one position where I'm sure RTS will find open space if it's persisted with.

                I agree Rooster_6 the question I was asking is why they weren't lined up like this last weekend.

                  Mini shouldn't be playing. If it was a rookie that turned in that kind of performance 2 weeks in a row, they'd be turfed.

                    Combinations will be very different next year. I wouldn't read too much into it.


                    I am very interested to see what our outside backs look like next year. We cannot afford to carry a slow fullback or slow winger.

                      Hopefully our back line will consist of something like:

                      Full back - RTS
                      Wingers - Tupou, Henry, Tagive, Rokolati, Oldfield
                      Centres - Moga, SKD

                      By the way, can someone tell me what's happened to Rokolati, is he injured?

                        I think Smithy is experimenting at this point, trying out some combinations and possible bench formations for next season. He also may be trying to keep guys like Morts and Bosden happy by giving them a taste of firsts.

                          I am hoping the same, but I suspect some of those players will be dumped or played out of position in order to accommodate Mini and BJ.

                            I'm taking my nephew to the theatre in the afternoon but I'll be home in time for the broadcast on ABC Grandstand. No matter how bad we are, I can never not listen/watch/attend a game of ours.

                              I wouldn't subject my nephew to a group of overpaid footballers who don't try who harm players that do.
