How about in light of the previous time these two teams met that Lawrence starts at 6\. Halatua starts in the back row and moses to the bench. Probably get burnt here but thoughts guys.
 
Maybe not a great idea benching Moses, probably sends the wrong message. Especially when Brooks is performing just as badly, if not worse. And yeah no one to kick unless we brought Rankin back. We did go alright with Lawrence in there last time, but being a necessity it could've changed the team dynamic where they all needed to step up as a result. Don't know if that would work again.

Who's going to kick the extras?

Good point but Simona can have a crack.

With his knee and ankle the way it is …with our luck Simona's leg would fall off...so we'll just have to score 15 TRY's against Souff's...
 
I am a fan of Lawrence and he has done well in the second row, which is where he should stay. To slow off the mark for me at 5/8.

No chance. He's one of the least threatening attacking players in the entire competition.

Put Rankin at 6, he's better than he looks at wing, and deserves o fair go where he s more suited.
 
Brilliant Lawrence is superb kicker, his short & long kicking, as well as goal kicking is clearly superior to Moses, not to mention his superb footwork and silky hands :bash
Sheens is live and well :blush:

Sheens, like Taylor, ran Lawrence in the halves by neccesity, he didn't bench the first choice 5/8th to do it. There was no plan A.

Too many cooks spoil the broth…...I just think we're better off with only 1 halfback out there trying to control a game. Its worked for South's with keirey from the bench
 
Dropping Moses to the bench makes sense against a big pack like Souths,but Id replace hin at 6 with ET who definitely has mall ball skills than Lawrence and can defend too.Bring Moses on with 25 mins to go eacj half.
 
Lawrence VS Inglis

Moses vs Keary - off the bench

It could work but I wouldn't do it.
Cheers for the suggestion
 
Moses and Brooks have been identified as our future so after letting all there rivals walk out the door we have no choice but to continue to play them week in and week out in the hope that they are getting closer each week to becoming NRL quality halves. Basically we have very little choice after investing so much time,effort and money into the dynamic duo
