This is a game that will need an ultra professional effort from us to win. Maybe not the most brilliant, but the team has to turn up and keep it together. Especially in the first 10 minutes. We don't need the big clutch play.

I'm worried about Luai. His aggressive style of play is great for origin or in a world class side that gets the rub of the green from refs and can absorb penalties better than we can right now. Please no high shots, sin bins, or obstructions. Don't try and change the game charging a kicker 55m out from our tryline with the game in the balance, just after a fantastic defensive effort. I'm surprised by his lack of awareness at times.

This is a game about making less mistakes than the warriors, building pressure, just executing when the chances come.

Most of our worst performances this year have come from screw ups or sin bins in the first 8 minutes or penalties that change the match situation. (Either the Penalty, or the counter punch from not concentrating after them). If we are chasing more than 6 points after 10 minutes, or someone is sin binned we are done for.
 
All I know is I want AD to most of our kicking in play, especially when we are in our own half.
 
Isn’t it good that a big percentage of supporters are giving us a chance against a top 4 team at their home ground and country at this time of the year.
Shows to me how much the team has improved this year.

My Team Changes,
Luia & API back in
Hope & Luaalilii drop out
Bird on Bench with
Seyfarth
Fainu
Murray
 
I’m thinking if he comes in it will be for To’a at right centre with AD moving back to his usual left centre in place of Luke. Whilst we’re a chance of finals, experience is important and Naden’s knee seems to be a lot better in Cup in recent weeks too. Plus he was 18th man yesterday so he is close to a recall.
Don’t think left centre suits AD, the way he runs and passes right much better imo.

This is the best team we can field giving Bula's injury. Will be a good test coming off the back of an unexpected but well fought win. Payback for round 4.

Mite be the best team we can field even if Bula fit..Tureva was outstanding last week.totally .committed ran hard and defended superbly.
Im preparing for life after Bula...his manager Grub Moses is already shopping him around,so we know what comes next.Only thing in our favor is our contractual offer is $800k..not many gonna match that
Happy to see more of Tureva at fb atm
Once thery sign with Moses WTS can draw a line under them
 
Cant believe Toa is Named

Hopefully its not serious as he has been in good form...

Or perhaps a late inclusion of Taylan May
 
Only change I would make is Sukkar to the bench .He only ran for 29m last game despite being on for 80 mins .Seems he might have shirked some of the tough runs .Tackled well though .
I would put Sione in the starting side .Can always interchange when he starts to get gassed. Start Strong !

I'd rather start with the player that does the tackling and bring runners on later.
