[Oldman]

Can I ask on form how Royce Hunt is making peoples squad for our first game.
I personally think these 4 should easily be in front of him.
May
Sione Fainu
Pole
Afoa

How are you judging on form?
Who else is infront of him with a 6 man bench?

These days you need 4-5 props.

Hunt, Bunty, Pole, May & Sione should cover rotation - Sione can cover prop and backrow.

Hunt or Bunty is a like for like swap so we should avoid having them on at the same time swap them over.

I was looking at the R1 (Vegas) team list. They look the same sort of format as 2025.

Dragons will win

If all players are available for selection except for Latu Fainu, I think it’s a clear cut 21 man squad, that will need to be trimmed to 19.

1. Bula
2.Turuva
3. To’a
4. Taylan May
5. Makasini
6. Luai
7. Doueihi
13. Teal
12. Pearce-Paul
11. Samuela Fainu
10. Afoa
9. Korisau
8. Terrell May

14. Hope or Madden
15. Sione Fainu
16. Pole
17. Hunt
18. Seyfarth
19. Skelton
20. Murray
21. Madden or Hope

** If KPP is unavailable for round 2 I would definately be starting Sione Fainu on the right edge which would mean Seyfarth would definately need to be in the 17 as I don’t think Sione would be ready to play a strong 80mins on an edge so early in the season.

think seyfarth takes Sione Fainu's spot on bench

Like it, big bodies in the pack and NRL quality contingency players for the backs and forwards.
Well balanced and up to Benji to decide if Hunt is up to it.
Bunty showing more minute's A & D than Hunt last year and Indigenous game this year.
Who has trained the best. And who rests Api.
