Will someone make way for BMM?

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!

Koro dropped the ball 10 out on Saturday night.

Marika did drop the ball 10 out, I actually thought it went backwards from my spot in the stand but if you drop the ball now the refs usually call knock on.

Marika's pace for mine also helped our side pin St George back last week on a number of occasions. Both Lote and Utai do not have anywhere near his pace. Speed is one of the best assets an outside back can have. I also think one of Moltzen tries was due to the fact that Soward and Nightingale would not move in because they were worried about Marika on the wing. I would not be dropping Marika for the finals if we make it, his pace could be what we need.

On the topic since BMM can fill in at a pinch in the centres I would drop Simona for him.
