Ok.. so WHO should be our forwards?

[Guest]

Du plessis barely knows the rules of our game and you want him to play firsts?

Anasta is not a backrower, he has great defensive technique but there is no way he will line-up for the tough hit-ups.

He is a running 5/8th who should be running lines off Pearce and Carney.

I still don't think Koops should be in the team as a hooker.

8. Paea
9. Jorbs/Friend/Brunton
10. Ryles
11. Symonds
12. Morbs
13. Myles

14. Jones/Fepuleai/Samuela
15. Guerra
16. JWH
17. FPN

Conn and Kouparitsas would be considered unlucky. Cherrington would struggle to crack into that team too.

I'd prefer Kennedy for Paea or FPN. I'd also like to see a bit more of Brunton before I worry about Friend..

I'd go with:

8. Jason Ryles
9. Jake Friend
10. Jared Wearea-Hargreaves
11. Tom Symonds
12. Mitch Aubusson
13. Nate Myles

14. Frank Paul-Nuuausala
15. Lopini Paea
16. Aiden Guerra
17. Sam Brunton


I quite like that line-up. I like the idea of Ryles and Wearea-Hargreaves weathering the opening exchanges and playing aggressively and then having Paea and Nuuausala coming off the bench as they are great impact players. But I might put Martin Kennedy in for one of Paea or Nuuausala as IMO they are the same type of player. Sam Brunton is the perfect player to bring on who can spark the attack.

Solid in defense and attack for 80 minutes.

Need to see a bit more of Brunton before he is considered ahead of Jaubs. Not convinced on his one-on-one defense especially close to the line. The Raiders didn't really test him.

I can't believe some have not included Conn even on the bench. Having a great season and I admit I didn't expect it when we first signed him.

Lopini hasn't had a good game for two years. Looks ideal for Super League. NRL out of his depth now.

FPN would be an ideal player in the days of unlimited interchange. On for 5 and off for 15 minutes. Too unfit and inconsistent.

Cherri not considered unless we make and he is fit for the semis and then I'd swap him for Kennedy.

Conn HAS to be on the bench.

I think we should see more of Brunton. He looked good while we steamrolled Canberra. Different story if we are under the pump. Still a bit light for my liking.

I hope we don't rush him into first grade, he's going great guns in the 20s. Friend/Jaubs is my ideal hooker combo at least for this year.
