BENCH Liddle Blore Amone
 
Wow! After today's effort... where do you start?

I'd probably keep Dane Laurie and Luciano Leilua, but after that, I'm stumped.

To be fair, it's probably not as bad as that. I'm sure there are other players who can hold their place in our team, but right at the moment it's difficult to be positive about it.

I didn't even bother to watch the last 15 minutes and don't even know what the final score was. Just went out and did some work in the garden.

I think clubs have Laurie worked out already .....multiples in defence ...simple

I think he needs to mix it up more ...get wider and try and get 1 on 1
 
whole backline needs an overhaul, that includes Nofo. hopefully Gebbie comes good. Talau deserves time at right centre which his actual position. M'Bye as a stop gap on the left and Liddle back on the bench.

we need a no frills halfback with a good kicking game that leads the side around. Brooks is looking less likely to fill that void by the week. unsure if Hastings is the answer, but who really knows at this point.

we desperately need a 13 in the mould of a Radley, B. Smith, Murray, etc. Tuki could provide that but I think he's still a while off. Musgrove needs a month in reserve grade. promote Amone. put Joffa and Stef back to the bench and bring Blore into firsts. Garner deserves to be starting and his decision making is far better than Ofahengaue's on an edge. Mikaele needs to realise that hes a wrecking ball, keep him in cup.

Talau has actually been a tweener for years. If anything he probably just needs to play reggies in the backrow and fill out and make that his position.
