I like the team but this concerns me. Eisnhuth has been really poor in our losses and he looks slow. I can't see him playing on the edge.

You could be right but I see no evidence based on his performances so far.

Yeh I think it's a fair concern you have.

My belief in Eisenhuth playing right edge is a little old school. He isn't the modern day power edge backrower, he is the old school John Cartwright style. But we know in league, old quickly becomes new again. I think he has a natural ability and sense to hit the right line. This is backed up by a few line breaks and tries this year running off a half. I also believe, his big frame, right arm off load makes the defence think twice, something we desperately need. If he can show he handles the defense as good as Rochow, then i think he is a great 80 minute right side backrower.

Rochow had a few good games in him, but I think they,re played out; and it’s time for him to go.
Problem is that we may not be any better with McQueen,

I'm hoping badly that Packer and JReynolds are back fit. Both need to start, Benji to reserves, he's got to pull his head in.

Drop Nofo for MWZ, for defence alone. Drop Rochow for McQueen, give him a go, can't be worse. With Packer back in for Grant, obviously start Packer.

Retain MCK, he made some mistakes, but along with Fonua looked our most likely tonight.

It's clear that we need better players, more strike power and Packer alone back in defence won't solve everything so I'm hoping the other changes can get us out of this groove.

You're kidding Milky! You're going to shovel Thompson to the wing for Tui? Thompson has been a revelation at the back this year and Lolohea has been unfit/ injured/ out of form all year. I'm not even sure if he's available. It's interesting how fans get fixated with the worth of a player while pillorying another player unmercifully.

We also had two players in the sin bin for 20 minutes, 40% possession and were hamstrung by Benji's poor kicking and decision making. How is moving one of our best attacking weapons to the wing and promoting a player who is helplessly out of form going to help us?
