Swap Payto for Fulton

And your spot on.

Younger legs

 

[steve-o]

no dwyer? id have him instead of MM

 

[hammertime]

well they should keep Tuqiri on the left side with Lawrence cause we had so much success on that side this year

I disagree. I think we need to have a pace man in both sets of our outside backs. Put Lote on the Right side with Ashford.

Plus, we had many more tries scored when Tui was there.

 

[system]

I am not fussed which side Lote and TNT play as long as they are both on the paddock. Both know how to position themselves for optimum service and it creates a genuine threat across the park

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

yeh who cares anyway! they are both great finishers

 

[Joel Helmes]

Pretty Simple really -

1\. McKinnon
2\. Tuqiri
3\. Lawrence
4\. Ayshford
5\. Tuiaki
6\. Marshall
7\. Lui
8\. Gibbs
9\. Farah
10\. Galloway
11\. Dwyer
12\. Ellis
13\. Heighnington

14\. Moltzen
15\. Payten
16\. Fifita
17\. Moors

That there is a potential Premiership winning team.

how old is brown and how old is mckinnon? mckinnon to me looks as though he's on his last legs. time will tell. and what about moltzen? - is mckinnon better than moltzen at fullback?

Wade McKinnon is 29, Moltzen 22, Brown 23, I guess McKinnon is a specialist fullback, but we haven't seen him put in much game time have we, time will tell :exclamation:

 

[Captain_Awesome]

Tuiaki NEEDS to be on the left. He has an amazing right arm fend, which he cannot replicate on his left side. Tuqiri will be just as effective on the right, Tuiaki will not

 

[Spartan117]

It will be a dream come true if their both on the wing.

Dont care about sides

[fergiefurr]

The team seems pretty settled to me. Positions up for grabs are:

Fullback
Halfback
3 benchspots

Whoever gets the halfback spot could decide the fullback spot

If tuiaki is fit then that's both Wing spots gone. If not then the right wing position becomes available.

The forwards will be (in no particular order) Gibbs, farah, Galloway, Ellis, payten, heighington, Fulton. Taking up the 6 starting spots and 1 bench spot.

 

[hybrid_tiger]

I'm pretty sure McKinnon will be the fullback. If Lui remains, I can see Sheens picking him @ #7 and perhaps Moltzen @ #14?

 

[tigeress]

I notice that Beau RYAN is not in any of your teams for 2011 !

 

[Guest]

I notice that Beau RYAN is not in any of your teams for 2011 !

Why would he be? If Tuiaki is fit it's a no-brainer he will get a wing spot. Ryan's best hope is to snag a spot on the bench or bide his time until injury strikes.
