I know aysh was bad last year but I'd start him ahead of siro to give him a chance, I think he will shine this year under a new coach and some pressure from siro.
I agree with the rest of your team tho.

I really believe that Simona should start the year as centre partner to Lawrence. He has speed, good defence, runs straight and displayed better form than Ayshford did throughout last season. Team selections for 2013 must be based purely on form not sentiment.
 
This would be my line up provided trial form etc

1\. Tedesco
2\. Koro
3\. Lawrence
4\. Ayshford
5\. Tuqiri
6\. Marshall
7\. Miller
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Blair
12\. BMM
13\. Anasta
14\. Sironen
15\. Pettybourne
16\. Gavet
17\. Fulton or Bell depending on game plan.

Want to see lots of the youngsters get gametime but doubt that will happen until midway through the season. Hopefully nofoluma, fotouaki?, sue, and groat.
I personally think sironen is too good to leave out but reckon potter will use Fulton as the utility bench spot. Can't wait for the season to start!
 
1 Tedesco
2 Koroibete
3 Lawrence
4 Ayshford\Simona depending on trial form
5 Utai Tuqiri depending on trial form
6 Marshall
7 Miller
13 Bell
12 Fulton
11 Blair
10 Woods
9 Farah (C)
8 Keefy

14 Anasta
15 BMM
16 Fotuiaki\Thompson (depending on trial form)
17 Pettybourne

Plan would be bring Anasta on after first 20 and put Bell or Blair into front row Gives us size for the full 80 and still keeps Fulton as Benji's minder and playing 80 minutes
 
I think Seumanufagai might be the big smokey. Guy looks like a machine - could be ready to take the next step.
 
What ever team they pick, their will be some good players miss out. Like another poster, I would not mind Simona in place of Aysford. I like the idea of trying to assemble a lighting fast backline and trying to blitz teams but I get the feeling Potter will opt for size with aim to develop a power game in both attack and defense and that has plenty of merit to
 
most of the team seems pretty set, apart from FB where im hoping Teddy will get the nod.
The 2nd row will be questionable depending on how Potter likes his team, Pettybourne or Fulton will both be strong contenders off the bench aswell as BMM if he doesn't start, The options of Bell and Fotuiaki are also handy. But again it depends on the style of team Potter wants to field. Will be interesting to see the trial matches.

"keep us rolling forward'' infers the starting pack will begin the ''rolling forward''
Its very very very light
It dont matter how its shuffled or packaged, were light in the forwards

Agree. The only way to beef up the forward pack is to give some of the up and comers a go:

8\. Galloway
9\. Farah
10\. Woods
11\. Pettybourne
12\. BMM
13\. Anasta

14\. Blair
15\. Seumanufagai
16\. Groat
17\. Naiyaravaro

Plenty of size with that bench (and there are a couple of other options not named) but bugger all experience aside from Blair. That's the problem Potter faces with bench selections, experience-wise we lack big time once a starting forward pack has been named.

I think it shapes to be a year where a few young guys get a go off the bench, provided Potter wants to see improved go forward.

No Fulton? He will be there somewhere

My post was directed purely at size among the forwards, which is why I didn't mention Fulton.
