Good team @Earl
Like Tuilagi in 2nd row and LL off bench for impact.
No Tamou either.

I'm really interested to see what they do with Doueihi.
If we don't sign a new centre - it might force madges hand to play him in the centres.
I agree he should be captain next year, but its not great having a captain who hasn't nailed down his position in the team.

Why not. Something different.

Agree
While we need to build a core nucleus.
We also need to change some of the team up, given our performances this year.

Consistency. That’s the team I’d go with if everyone stays on deck. If there’s changes during the off-season then maybe adjustments to be made.

Forgot Joe Offenhague.
Swap with Alex Seyfarth.

I reckon Gildart will spend most of the season in reserves. We will upgrade in the centres or AJ Kepaoa will take the spot in my opinion. Gotta laugh about Garner at centre lol, Sheens is certainly back.

 

[earl]

No Tamou either.

I don't see him making our top team. He will be there for back-up.

 

[earl]

Alex Seyfarth.

I reckon Seyfarth is one of the guys we should build around. To me he is a big mobile prop that has an impact.

 

[frullens]

I agree - but hour they make the call early
I think he could be great to teach the young guys in reserves.

AD is interesting isn't he. I'm only playing him at centre to fit everyone in. He'll kill it there though.

Alex Seyfarth.

I love the energy he brings - which this team desperately need. I found it hard to fit him in to 17 but would love him in there

He is a prop and they get burned out all the time so he'll get game time. He shouldn't be guaranteed a spot though so he loses the captaincy and plays reserves until he is required.

I think he's one of our best players, but just don't know where best to play him, to balance the team.

He would see the ball more at centre with Hastings rather than mybe in halves.

But he's probably out best player - and centres these days are toilers and don't get much ball not the glamorous position it used to be.

I think he is one of the guys we need out there. I rate him higher than Tamou, Mikaele and even Twal. He has more impact than all of those excluding maybe Mikaele but Mikaele has too many mistakes.

 

[frullens]

Alex Seyfarth.

I reckon Seyfarth is one of the guys we should build around.

I see two main groups to build around.

Core young group - 23yo and under:
LAURIE - 22yo
TALAU - 21yo
UTE - 21yo
SIMPKIN - 19yo
BLORE - 21yo
DOUEIHI - 23yo
SIMPKINS - 19yo
TUILAGI - 22yo
SEYFARTH - 22yo

Core group - 23-26yo
TWAL - 25yo
BROOKS - 26yo
HASTINGS - 25yo
LIDDLE - 25yo
MUSGROVE- 25yo
LEILUA - 25yo
GILDART - 25yo

Ogden slides straight into the side for either TT Kep or Gildart

Dillon as backup for FB and Scolari to replace nuffieluma at some stage ?

Been hearing about those kids for years.
Hopefully it works out for them.


I like it my brah.
Ogden looks a special talent.

How old are these 2? I would have thought it’s a bit early for them to be playing NRL?

If they're good enough, they're old enough.
