Round 8 State Cup Team

[Goose]

They look strong.

Id like to see Cherrington playing the bulk of the minutes.

Lamar, Santi and Funaki are very talented depth.

Buchanan is a good state cup front rower but short of nrl level . Andy Fiagatusa is injured but was probably the best player in the playoff defeat last season.They are the grunt up front that is missing at the moment. Agree Funaki and Lamar would be better back in holden cup at this stage

 

[Milky]

Moltzen out Salesi at centre. Bloody hell can't them play him in his preffered position?

Funaki at centre is an interesting move.. I would've thought he'd go with Sita out there.

Is he just named there and playing backrow, with Fine moving into centre?
