TEAM LIST Round 2 vs. Raiders

[AmericanHistoryX]

Hopefully both of them.

 

[Dino]

Benji might be planning for Sezar to have a similar role to the one he had at the bunnies.

Coming off the bench to play lock and settle the team down with his experience

 

[rozelle_rudy]

Sezer at 14 suggests 2 things:
1. Simpkin out of favour and possibly about to be released
2. Sullivan to relieve Api, with Sezer going in at 7

Olam missing first game of season suggests due diligence on his fitness before signing may have been botched.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Benji was not happy with that role. Trust me. Dino

 

[bbobb]

They’d be better off targeting Sullivan’s edge, where the Dragons were successful.

I hope we have a plan.

Yep - Galvin looked much more effective in defence than Bud. I think Bud will need a minder. I would not be surprised to see Sezer start with Bud moving back to the bench. I think Galvin has locked one of the halves spots up.

Will be very interesting to see what happens when Latu Fainu is fully fit

 

[Betterdays22]

Hopefully both of them.

Thinking more defensively AHX. There will be a lot of traffic going both Faatape and Galvin's way I imagine.

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

Love the call on Galvin starting! Gotta show the faith and what a way to do it! I'm sure Benji has a plan A and B in mind.

Plan A, get out the Rosary beads; Plan B, close your eyes

I think it’s definitely injury related in regards to Sezer. Benji noted all pre season how key an organising half is & how Sezer will be crucial to our attack & how we play in general.

With no Simpkin on the bench, perhaps Sullivan will go to DH to rest Api, Sezer to the 7 role

3 things. We don't know.

Why would Sezer be in the 17 if injured?

We can confirm this theory 4.30 pm Saturday.

 

[Tom Shines]

What’s wrong with Olam?

Cant back up after a three week break …

 

[rozelle_rudy]

Toa and Tupou. I dont know. Someone help me. Are they good?

Not really, no.
Tupou is fast in the open, but poor handling skills.

To'a is meh.

 

[Joelcainenumber1fan]

the seyfarth hate is just getting dumb he was one of the best forwards in the nz trial

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Great question.

 

[Vicious]

Do we have a get out clause if he plays less than 50% of our games ?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Cool. If was Canberra. Target the back line. Rozelle Rudy

 

[rozelle_rudy]

To be honest. Canberra dont look too much better

They were dominant against Knights, who are a much better side than us.

From the moment they first mentioned the possibility of him coming here … I knew he was going to be a dud …
