What I don’t get is why on earth when we are versing a team that is bound for disaster and pretty much wooden spoon contenders especially only into the 3rd round, why we wouldn’t blood more youth this would be the best opportunity I reckon not to mention from what I’ve picked up from over the first two rounds the team should look more like this
1.
Berry. Yeah I know weird option but give this kid space and he can run he’s been stifled sitting there out in centre, teams also would of trained for
Walsh over the pre season so would probably benefit changing him putting him into 5/8
2.
Ratuva. Young, skillful, athletically talented, is Fijian and everyone knows how good these wingers plays these days, e.g Sivo, Uate, Radradra, think you get the jest
3. Arthurs. Solid has great defence and can turn a game on a head if given a chance just off first glance
4.
Aitken. Experiment over is not a second rower can not bend the line as he can at Centre
5.
Pompey can play both sides at the wing, last time he played left wing was R5
2020 against the Cowboys we came out winners 37-26 and he did score a try so definitely can play both sides of the wing not to sure if
Ratuva can play left wing
6.
Walsh needs to be moved from Fullback, everyone figured he’s game over the off season
7.
Chanel Harris-Tavita for now till
Johnson returns
8.
Lodge like him or hate him we need him besides that spewing incident on weekend I expect him to be fully fit this week or next and I heard he has been training the house down besides the covid hiccup
9.
Egan, no back up needed this fella can play 80 and if he somehow can’t manage to play 80 I’d put
Tevaga there and bring
Curran to lock and maybe play
Katoa/
Ben Murdoch-Masila or
Sironen as backup 2RF
10.
Afoa this fella never gets the credit he deserves but is a man on a mission I have him being a premier forward in years to come has all the makings of a great forward
11.
Curran do I really need to say much 😍
12.
Pene everyone pretty much saw what
Pene can do over the first two rounds and this man can play and should be starting everyday of the week
13.
Tevaga need him playing in the middle he is a fine lock and will fix a lot of problems up in the middle
14.
Sironen/
Katoa/
Ben Murdoch-Masila back up 2RF
15.
Addin Fonua-Blake I see him,
Addin Fonua-Blake as a bench player don’t get me wrong great player but we could really use him to inject energy off the bench plus being captain he may be able to rev the blokes up on the bench
16.
Murchie needs to man up stop playing as a second rower off the bench has the body to be a prop
17. PPR considering this is against the Tigers why Brown hasn’t blooded Pride Patterson &
Ratuva is beyond me we are playing a team currently worthy of playing u20s atm 🤣well that’s just my assessment over the first two rounds
