If we somehow get 2 wins in the next 3 games it will be a major boost to our season with Api and Bula out.

These next 3 games will tell us a lot of this team

Todd Smith... We are no chance. He butchered the Broncos game!

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

This could be Sukkars only chance to secure a decent contract with us or anyone else for next yr, so i expect he will be primed to have a big one.

Same with Hope.

Looking forward to seeing how these guys go, Hope in particular - if he is solid for 3 weeks then I'll be very happy.

I would be very surprised

Sometimes changes in the spine can work in funny ways.

I remember 2006 ish, we seemed to always play better when one of Benji, Robbie or Hodgo was out. This year we looked fine as a team without Luai.

I haven't loved his past performances, but if he just passes well and makes his tackles there are a few guys around him in good enough form for us to jag a win or two.

Only playing with 1 centre. Tough ask. Skelton back is good

Most of that backline has played centre at one point.

I'm hoping Luai doesn't get haunted by the ghost of Farah past and try to do everything himself: that's Doueihi's job!

Turuva is a no brainer at fullback - he's done pretty well there when needed.

Hooker is a big worry. Both because of Api's workmate and also the lack of a quality backup. Pretty sure Sione went to 9 while Api was off on the weekend didn't he?

Hope's main problem... Now, hear me out here... Is that moustache. He'd probably be awesome without it.

What's the deal with Afoa? Why hasn't he played yet (apart from being a new dad)?

And To'a did come back through cup - it's just that no one realised he was playing....

Tony Sukkar IMO is not a 1st grader but is in the run on side yet we have
Sione and big Royce on the bench
Would prefer one of these to start with Sukkar on the bench

Edge backrower is a very different role to what Royce and Sione play. It's more like for like
