Would take both Isaako and TPJ in a heartbeat.
Isaako at fullback would allow Laurie to move to 5/8 (which looks to be his best position - he plays his best footy up in the line). And TPJ would easily be our best forward.
4 sin bins in tonight's game. A but of a worry for what's to come. What happens when a game is 13 on 10, or descends into what's basically a 9s game. Especially when it's mostly for innocuous stuff. I can see it causing problems this round.
I see Hastings as being a good #14.
But I think in the halves we need somebody with a bit more attacking flair. Doueihi and Johnson has the potential to be a very good combination.
Yep, between the poor options, the poor kicking game and the poor direction and leadership I'm not sure what he's supposed to be offering. Even his running game has been crap lately.
