I think Lawerence will miss a week and Sirro looks a bit dusty Also wouldn't surprise me if Woods misses another week but should be good

I fully agree with forevertiger.I was also impressed with game in the centres against the titans adding more versatility.
 
For me Nofo is a class ahead of Rowdy. Not only can he break the line, he can then run 90m. He contests the high balls well in attack.
Completely out of context, but as long as we're talking potential centres: damn I love Naiqama. Really good in all aspects of his game (except from being a bit short under the high ball lol).
 
I like Willow's team. Lovett is the ideal bench player as he can cover centre if required and his general play has been terrific for a first year nrl player. Way ahead of Santi imo.
 
Naqaima would be much better at centre not only in attack but in defense as well. Would way rather his strong defense at centre and have nofoaluma under the high ball. Those two could form an awesome combo

I don't think Lawrence will be suspended and if he is I wouldn't be putting Nofo in yet, even if he is okay. He didn't do a lot yesterday in NSW Cup so I'd rather he have a couple more games there at least before returning to First Grade.

I'm also confident Sirro will be right after seeing him at NSW Cup yesterday.

100% agree with this team. I don't think Lawrence is bad or anything but Naiqama is just killing it at the moment and I think he would make an outstanding centre. If Nofo is fit, definitely needs to be back on the right wing. Nofo is everything you need in a winger and more!

Not a typo.

Nofo in my opinion would make a great centre. He just seems to have that ability to break a tackle better than Simona because of his power. He generally beats the first man when he scoots from dummy half and is much harder to stop and eats metres.

I remember a try he scored in the middle of the field off a scrum where he beat about 4 guys to the try line. He's got that Hurrell type of player about him, but better defence and ability in the air.

Simona is probably faster and has better footwork and relies on that a lot to beat his man. I think swapping them around might benefit them both. I know Nofo is very good in the air, but I just get the feeling he would be able to beat his man more often than Simona in a one on one situation and would then be able to set up his outside man with more space. Simona could then have more room to move and beat his man with speed and footwork.

Simona also had a couple of blinders on the wing in previous years.

Naqaima has to stay in the team, offers more in attack than Lawrence who even though hasn't gone too bad this year, just doesn't offer as much in attack. Kev also is pretty safe with the high ball and solid in defence. Sadly I think the transition to the back row is inevitable for Rowdy. He hits and runs hard but in terms of lateral movement and footwork it just doesn't seem to be there.

Naiqama pending form could hold the spot until Seve steps up which I have no doubt he will.

Simona is a good centre and Nofo a good winger. It's just my thoughts and wouldn't mind seeing it to see how it goes if they swapped.
