Your team / predicted team for Storm

[ElleryHanley]

It’ll be Will Smith especially losing so much experience in Api & Brooks.

Simpkin hooker, Da Silva bench.

Smith also provides additional hooker coverage if required with T’oa moving into 5/8 & Kepaoa centre.

Will Smith has been TERRIBLE in State Cup.

Terrible as in....really, really, terrible.

No way could he be picked.

time to go back to the grinding brand of football off the back of our pack and kick well. To'a at 6 is mainly to do with defence. Laurie defending in the line will be a disaster. Matamua seems to have finally kicked the door down, would reward him with a promotion to firsts. same goes for Reilly, anything would be better than Talau after last week.

1. Bula
2. Nofoaluma
3. Naden
4. Reilly
5. Tupou
6. To'a
7. Wakeham
8. Pole
9. Simpkin
10. Klemmer
11. Papali'i
12. Bateman
13. Matamua

14. Da Silva
15. Twal
16. James
17. Kepaoa

Pole is arguably player that made the biggest impact of all of our forward. While Twal has improved this season, he has no/minimal impact on the game, however, he could be good in defence.
IMHO, Twal must start, and than be replaced with Pole when we need his impact.

agreed on Pole, but starting Twal and Klemmer against Melbourne could kill us off before Pole even gets on. probably best to stagger them. for this week I think it's best he starts.
