Surely we can find a spot for Felise in the 17? To me him & Ava were the main reason for the comeback in the second half. Very strong carries

 

[supercoach]

No surprises, but I certainly would have the 9 and 16 the other way around and I would have JAC on the wing

 

[MightyMaggy]

JJ should be in the top 17 and NOT the number 18! I cannot believe he is rated behind Lovett.

I agree, but how many tries must Kev let in before the accountability and performance they speak of kicks in. :bash

You can, get rid of Halatau and bring him in. :astonished:

Apples and oranges, or front and back rowers. Felise is one, whilst Lovett is the other.

Felise over Lovett everyday of the week, also ahead of Aloiai as well!
Another joke selection for the scarecrow, rankin again and please number 16…

Who actually picks our team?

(1) The coach?
(2) Some committee?
(3) Pascoe?
(4) O'Neill?
(5) Our salary cap advisor?

You know Felise & Lovett play different positions, yeah? I like Felise, but it's been made pretty clear we are trying to bring him on slowly.

Depends on the result

The side isn't even that bad.

I wouldn't mind seeing Felise given the nod over Halatau or Lovett. We need a backrower on the bench to give Aloiai (& hopefully Rowdy) a spell. Given Halatau also plays hooker that probably makes him more valuable to the team than Lovett.

Something out of left field, I also wouldn't mind seeing Sue back in the 2nd row rotation, dropping both Lovvett & Halatau to make room for Felise & Liddle on the bench.

No matter what the final make-up of the team is ET has to play lock. We're much more dynamic with him there. Bet he's up for a big game this weekend coming up against his old team!!

Only change I would make is JAC for Rankin. Bench is good.

Dene - 9 Farah -16 - "best for the team"
It's not gelling.
Dene didn't start last week when we had no hooker starts this week when we have Farah back.
Hope he is onto something ..

 

[Fade_To_Black]

Halatau? Oh great…....must be short odds on him coming off injured again and leaving us a man down for a hour. Farah to 9, Chee Kam to 16 and Dene to watch on from the grandstand would be a much better (and reliable) way to go.

It is called mind altering drugs.

Buckets is kidding keeping Farah on the bench for Halatau.

Also im questioning why Buckets has kept Rankin despite not kicking goals ahead of JAC

Gotta feel for Jt!!

In all seriousness i can live with Farah being in the bench as it worked against a pretty poor Souths. Not sure i would be sticking with it, but if you win games with it im not totally against it.

 

[Mac_tiger]

Aside from JAC/Rankin this is the side that beat Souths. Go well boys!
