Sad reading this thread, we are basically relying on some ISP talent stepping up.
Here is my team. If we go with the same line up we will finish 13th again.
I would reinvent the back line.
My radical change would be
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck to centre and
Hiku to full back.
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck to transition to centre and get better one on one match ups.
Hiku's best position is full back and I think he is a better ball playing full back than
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck in terms of distributing and hitting the line and creating overlaps for wingers. Nearly every game
Hiku started at fullback for the warriors we won. My backline may leak tries but we will score plenty 1990s Warriors style.
1)
Hiku
2) That Fijian young cu** - Kirwan played for the ABs at 19. Get the cu** in the team.
3)
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck - Like I said, fuck being sensible, sensible got us 13th. Lets try some shit if we can't recruit externally.
4)
Fusitua - probably shit at reading defence but try it for 5 games.
5)
Maumalo
6)
Chanel Harris-Tavita/
Nikorima
7) Green
8) Passi - Bruce hates him but there is no one else and he isn't a liability.
9) Re-sign Luke - I have no idea why we dont want him. Our reasons for letting people go sound capricious.
10)
Lisone (Yes starting. Yes really - he is our only prop who smashes into the line).
11) Vuna - Get his priest to talk him into returning, Getting him back would be my number one priority. cu** can play centre too which means we don't have to carry a back utility on the bench. He is our only hope of having a mobile 2nd row.
12)
Harris
13)
Jazz - the pack leader. Yes he is. You know he is.
14)
Nikorima/
Chanel Harris-Tavita
15) LAM - terrific bench prop
16)
Afoa - terrific bench prop
17)
Curran/
Frei/Some Young forward - whoever it is will only get 8 minutes per game so who cares.
