I really think Latu has looked good at lock when he fills that role after the sting has gone out of the game.
But I don’t think moving Twal from the middle will strengthen our team overall, I think he has been our best this year and playing at lock.

It’s not a permanent move , he would fill that gap that we have now with samula out , and we have to get latu into the game , he’s a ball player , very good defender, and has good pace to worry the opposition.
Agree
Twal needs to stay as a middle.

Just in the middle rotation if no injuries or HIAs ...
20 mins - Pole off, Sione on
30 mins - May off, Latu on (Latu at lock, Twal at prop)
50 mins - Twal off, May on
60-65 mins - Sione off, Twal on
60 mins - Latu off, Hunt on
70 mins - Hunt off, Seyfarth on
70-80 mins - Api off, Latu on
70-80 mins - May off, Pole on
Latu 40 mins
Api 70 mins
May 50 mins
Twal 70 mins
Pole 30 mins
Hunt 10 mins
Seyfarth 10 mins
We're lucky to have 3 workhorses in Api, May & Twal so it's hard to give a .lot of impact mins to Hunt & Seyfarth.

Don't underestimate the fact that our 2 backrowers in KPP and Samuela can easily pump out 80mins of high impact, high quality play. This allows us to rotate the middles more often.
See I don’t rate Seyfarth as an impact replacement, i think he is only there to cover for Twal and T .May if they get injured and can’t return.
My impact players are
Pole
Sione
Hunt

I meant impact for Seyfarth is getting on and just working his ass off!

He does play a role that many do not appreciate.
