Looks good to me. Injury might manipulate that a little, but if May & Luai are back- that's the team.

we can't have jock and latu in the bench, Seyfarth comes in for latu fainu if you were doing that

 

[Odessa]

First time today Seyfart played more then 20 minutes he was playing on average 15

You don't think Latu can play in the middle for 15 minutes he's defence is great

And with the 6 man bench if we lose a forward to injury we are covered

 

[Odessa]

we can't have jock and latu in the bench, Seyfarth comes in for latu fainu if you were doing that

And I was thinking Jock could give API a rest

 

[upthetigers]

Good team @Odessa 👍

 

[Tweed_Tiger]

Think the only way jock stays in the team when luai returns is if you moved AD out of the halves.

 

[ShanghaiCharlie]

I'd give Latu some game time in Reggies, maybe Seyfarts too and Hope. They need game time.
Prefer an specialist outside back like Skelton on the bench

 

[Tito Santana]

I think Sam F will be out due to his knee so don’t be surprised to see Bunty come into the 19 with Sione moving into the second row for his brother.

I think that's the team mate, although I'd give Jock a chance and rest AD if his groin isn't up to kicking.

A couple of little things with AD cost us a shot at 60, running when the backline move is on and throwing cutouts when turuva can't run.... would have loked to see KPP used more on those shifts, and Herb too in the 2nd half. I love how he's playing overall and don't think Benji drops him.

Pole and May (less halfback play though lol) both had their best game of the year by far. Sione hopefully ok, barely sighted?

Jock or Latu could drop out to get 80 minutes in cup.

If Sam is out I’d bring Sukkar in.
Sounds like he’s killing it in cup and I reckon Sione is to important in our forward rotation

 

[JB9918]

For me all comes down to if AD can take all the kicking duties. If yes, he plays halfback & Jock to the bench. If not see below. I think AD doesn't kick, to manage the groin this early in the season.

A few positions pending based on injuries & returning players.

Good thing we have depth.

Name the team on Tuesday #1 to #22.

Best case for me is, this 1 hour before kick off.

1. Bula
2. Turuva/Tavana
3. Herbert
4. Taylan/Makasini
5. Makasini/Tavana/L Lualilli
6. Luai
14. Madden
8. Terrell
9. Korosaui
13. Twal
11. Samuela/Sione/Sukkar
12. Peare-Paul
7. Doueihi

10. Pole
15. Sione/Sukkar
16. Hunt
17. Bunty
18. Luke Lualilli/Toa
19. Latu - To play halfback in Cup
20. Seyfarth - To play front row in Cup
21. Forward
22. Back

Skelton definitely back to Cup

 

[weststigerman]

Very difficult team list this week.

Taylan, Luai, Tino, Laulilii all potentially back. Injury clouds on Turuva and Sam Fainu.

I don’t have an answer but it will be interesting.

I think Jocks kicking game is worth 8 points a game and I don't see Luai or AD ever having the same control it's a big risk leaving him out of the 17




I think the balance of the team Jock mite end up being the 7 because we have strike all over the park now and don't need a flash player at 7 we just need a guy who can direct and has a great kicking game and that's it

The strike players
Api
Bula
The May's
Turuva
KPP
The Fainu's
Luai

We don't need anymore a few years ago we mite have 1 and now everyone almost can make something out of nowhere

Tino got special permission to play first grade so if other players are available he mite not be allowed to play

Did Sione play today?

 

[rihannafan1]

Came off at halftime. Dunno why. Thar's why Pole, Royce and Seyfarth all.played longer minutes

Did Sione play today?

 

[rihannafan1]

If Sam is out I’d bring Sukkar in.

Yeah I agree. Sukkar's time now. Sam is a huuuuge loss though.

Seyfarth is likely to be suspended as he's on report for the fifth time in the past year (seriously, was on report four times last season).

 

[Halbrowne61]

Does anyone know what’s going on with Afoa, Luai said he was the standout in pre season but hasn’t been sighted as yet ?
Or have I missed something.

Sukkar should get a go if he keeps his form up. Easy to change him and Seyfarth.
