Will someone make way for BMM?

Bell deserves to hold his spot and we all know Sheens likes a back on the bench so Simona is safe. Will it be Cashy or Moors to make way?

Moors will drop off for BMM

I would like to see four forwards on the bench so Simona would be the one to drop off the bench.

My bench;

Bell
BMM
Moors
Cashmere
 
End of the day it probably wont matter. As whoever is the 17th man, whether its Cashmere or Moors, is only going to play 8 minutes.

Id pick Moors, as Cashmere gives a token penalty a game.
 
Moors will more than likely make way. Cashmere gets through more work in defence, and given the Tigers trouble with defending this year, I'd rather roll with a guy who will make 20 tackles and only miss 1 as opposed to a forward who will only make 4 or 5 hitups before being subbed off.

x2 , i agree we need to go into this with 4 forwards . They have some big forwards to contain .
Don't see the value in Simona warming the bench for 80 minutes.
 
Moors has shown me nothing …covering for injuries at best.Don't know what the hype is all about.

moors, koro and simona… i dont think we can carry ALL or even 2of them in the same team in the finals. they don't have enough experience to play do or die games and this is the ONLY reason i would play cashmere in front of moors at this stage.

if only a couple of them would've played some matches earlier in the year..

Lawrence will be back for the finals if we make it so Simona will make way, same goes for Moors when BMM returns.
 
Will be good to see BMM return, but I hope its not Moors who goes for him. He has started to look good over the past few weeks.

To be fair with Koroibete, he's the only one who has played with intent for the whole 80 minutes particularly in the last two games. Why? Because he is playing for his spot.

That's going to be the problem with this club next year. We're going to have a good amount of depth and a coach who won't be willing to keep under performing players honest by dropping them.

to me, it's not just about putting in an 80 minute performance, it's about handling pressure..it's crazy to expect a 4/5 game 20 yo guy to handle pressure and even crazier to select him in the heat of finals over a veteran such as lote.

it would've been different if marika had played 20 odd games with us this season.

so if we made the finals and koro was playing well you would automatically drop him for lote just because he's more experienced?…

if we're talking about a fully fit lote, then maybe. if the finals were tomorrow, i would pick lote over marika.
 
People question Marika's age and experience and that is fair. But seriously, I cringe every time I see Utai and Lote hit the ball up 10m out from our own tryline. Was it the Newcastle game where Lote dropped the ball in our own quater? They both do it often enough to make me uncomfortable.

So why have them there over Marika. Sure he will drop a ball or get caught out of position occasionally but at least he is young and can learn from his mistakes. I would rather Marika and his pace in the squad lifting the spirits of the guys around him. I bet even Benji has lifted his game, excited about getting good clean ball to Marika in space so we can see what he can do.

He could be the X-Factor that our team needs!
 
Could not agree any more with you Tigersmurf well said mate.

We need an injection of youth and pace in our side. Marshall must be rubbing his hands to give Marika the ball in space. Moltzen showed last week what pace and running off Marshall can produce

Lote has been great but has played 2 seasons too long.

Utai would be great off the bench as an impact forward.
 
Everyone has a different capacity to handle pressure. Koro hasn't done anything to suggest he wouldn't handle it. Quite the opposite in fact. The bloke has come from a village in Fiji with no roads to a foreign country where he doesn't speak the language or have any friends yet he has adapted and killed in in NYC then killed it in first grade.

Koro dropped the ball 10 out on Saturday night.
