Ridiculous depth!
 
Yeah I can't complain after a win like that but I thought Pato deserved to play.

Some tough selection decisions coming up for us, but it's a great problem to have :slight_smile:
 
Seems like a long time since we could claim we had proper depth.
Last year proved we had depth when the young fellas took their chances and caused some great upsets…this year proves it is standup calibre.

Oh yeah, what happened to Patterson tonight? Was he dropped or injured?

I don't know about dropped as that seems harsh but Fulton was favoured over him this week though with suspensions I suspect we'll see him back in the team. Buchanan may also get his first fun for the year.

He was 18th man and as such he didn't get a run. Was on standby for Ava I believe. Unlucky but the top 17 sure did the job.

I reckon Buchanan is probably about 5th down the line now of available forwards outside the top 17 and as far as props I'd say Nathan Brown has gone past him.

100%. There's an X factor about this team that is bloody exciting. We totally outmuscled the supposed best forward pack in the comp. Galloway and Woods starting then Taupau, Gavet, Sue and Ava coming off the bench is the best forward pack we've had ever.

Kudos to Potter for his coaching, great style of football to watch.

I like what I've seen over the last two weeks and if we can back it up I will like it even better.

To me Siro should get a starting spot. I think he will be a target for us out wide. Halatau is also to come back and Patterson and BMM could slot in somewhere as well.

Who would you drop though ?
