Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I'd have Paps and Olakau'atu on the edges, Bateman as Lock. Fainu will end up in the front row eventually but whilst he's young he plays well on the edge.

8. Klem
10. Stef
11. Paps
12. Olakau'atu
13. Bateman

14. Twal
15. Blore
16. Pole/Fainu/Matamua/Seyfarth
17. ?

Not a bad pack. Still need a strike centre though...

Could be the Kao Weeks chat that came up a few months back.
All makes reasonable sense but let’s not forget Bateman didn’t really fire in the lock position when tried there earlier in the year. I think it remains somewhat of an issue for us.
Without creating a firestorm could Sezer be possibly thought of in that role ( a la Hastings at 13).
Just a thought ?

I wonder if Bateman would be more of a success at 13 if he wasn't made to play 80? Even Cam Murray doesn't play 80 minutes.
 
We've had that many assistants that almost all of the experienced ones have already been at WT. Pretty sure Georgallis and Sandercock were here in the past.

I hope one of them can teach our team how to attack in the red zone.
Both were. I liked Sandercock, seemed a pretty sharp attacking coach from memory (although I think he was one of JT’s assistants so…..)
