Hhave they got a few injuries or is this their best?

French is out so Gutho goes to fullback and Takairangi goes to 5/8, bringing Auva'a in at centre. In the forward pack they've brought Nathan Brown in at lock meaning Beau Scott to bench (it's usually 11\. Ma'u 12\. Scott 13\. Moeroa). Kenny Edwards and Frank Pritchard are either injured or out of favour because they're not even in the 21.

Their best (imo) is:

1\. French
2\. Radradra
3\. Jennings
4\. Takairangi
5\. Hoffman
6\. Gutherson
7\. Norman
8\. Mannah
9\. K. Pritchard
10\. Brown
11\. Ma'u
12\. Scott
13\. Moeroa

14\. Vave
15\. Matagi
16\. F. Pritchard
17\. Edwards

Bit of Sheesns going on there. One bloke out and a full backline shuffle.
Looks a beatable side, strong backrow.
 
If we're fair dinkum we'll beat them. No excuses regarding recovery time from the Cowboys match, and the message from Cleary just needs to be the same as last week.
 
A tough side but not a lot of creativity.
They're very fit and hard-working, so we'll need to show the same intensity as last week to get a result.
Our fitness still worries me.

You are correct our fitness is still a huge issue i have no idea what happened during the off season (too much weights training maybe) but certainly little conditioning we are way behind the 8 ball in this.I have no doubts Cleary has been focusing on this since he arrived

Isaac De Gois would have to fit into their top 17 if fully fit in my opinion

Yeah true but I think he'll retire due to ongoing concussion issues so I don't really regard him as an option. Parra basically have to choose from Pritchard or King, neither of whom are genuine 80 minute options. They'll definitely be in the market for a hooker for 2018.
 
I don't think that's a bad side to be honest. As some have said they are beatable but it won't be a walk in the park.
