TEAM LIST Round 14 vs. Dragons

Team List
I don't want to be over dramatic but I've lost some respect for Benji picking Naden. After the way he has let us down his last 2 performances, to come back in after suspension when Feledy performed well is really shocking. Not only is it a bad decision, it shows really poor leadership.

Look forward to seeing Lobb and Sione. Hopefully Matamua actually starts this time.
I think we are down on troops king 🤴

True feelings on Naden sit with a new contract in England organised courtesy of Richo...I don't think he's there out of choice.
 
I see Feledy as a much better option at 14 then Naden. He covers injuries outwide, but I also could see him play a little cameo in the middle. He is built low to the ground, is really physically strong and obviously would be very mobile. The more I think about it the more I think Benji has missed a trick here. Feledy could turn out to be a handy 14 covering centre, backrow, lock and possibly even hooker at a pinch if he trained for it. He may even make a career out of a role like this.
I think Naden is there as Api cover as strange as that sounds. Bud would fill in at hooker with Naden in the halves. If an outside back goes down, he’ll cover. But plan likely for Api to play 80 so Naden probably just warms the pine.
 
I understand some of the hate on naden but at least the guy has some ticker.
It would have been nice if he showed it when opposing Bradman Best instead of crapping himself every time BB ran the ball.
Up until then I was still hopeful Naden would mature and use his size and speed to his advantage, but that game showed his true colours in my opinion.

Probably considered to be a left side only player.

Just a guess.
Exactly. And Naden still selected, as I thought, if only on the bench but that can change. I think Charlie will get steamrolled!
We can win, but only if Saints don’t turn up mentally, if they do another loss imo. Our line up is pretty poor when you examine it.
