Anyone think when

8 Woods
10 Seumanufagai

13 Aloiai

14 Sue
15 Grant..

No weakness 25min-60min mark with that rotation…

Agree, I think Grant needs to start off the bench to tighten up the middle during the 20-60 min mark. Don't mind whether Sue, Ava or Aloiai take the starting prop & lock spots. Siro might also be another option starting at lock which would open up the other 2nd row spot for Fine/MCK…but prob won't happen.
 
I really think Woods should transition into lock at some point, just like Merrin, Jake T etc. Would add some starch to our pack.

Agree - I'm worried that Ava is the one that TT has mentioned as the player who is leaving. He has really come on this year - hits the line hard and has good work rate in defense.

I would like to see our lock offloading more than what Sue is currently doing. Woods can offload. And at prop, this has been taken out of his game his season.
 
What we cant have is Aloaia and Ava on the field at the same time.

That is the combination that hurts, both run hard and hit hard, but a little immobile and neither work hard enough from marker, it is that combination that we lose it through the middle on.

We should aim to have 2 of Woods, Grant and Sue on the field at most times in the middle.

Yeah, two of the three is paramount if available. Also Ava is getting much better at finding his stomach this year.which balances his poorish movement.
