This is the best team to field imo, while waiting for McQueen, Reynolds, Liddle and possibly Aloiai(?) to return from injury/regain match fitness.

Do you have Gamble or Benji playing hooker?

Neither :wink:

Gamble to lock with ET to hooker for 20 minutes.

I really think Gamble can evolve into a great lock. DCE origin type.

He does have the size and ball-playing ability. Sounds good, although we're not IC.

 

[TYGA]

The only change I would make is our left edge. Kev let in the try coming in and MWZ flew in earlier when Teddy dropped a sitter.
They can’t match up with Chambers/Vunivalu/Kaufusi.

Either bring in Milne to centre or MWZ with Nofa on the wing.

Will be interesting to see if Cleary plays horses for courses or sticks to a winning team. Either way Ivan knows what he’s doing so I’m happy with whatever lineup he puts together.

Really like that bench.
After what gamble did in NSW cup I think he should be our utility (big enough and talented to play anywhere in back line).

We missed Nofos starts to the set. We need that extra run every set and even though thompson and mwz did an ok job it wasnt enough at the start of the sets. Naiqama shouldnt be there. Milne didnt do that great on saturday either so not sure what we can do there.

I dont like two hookers in the side. Get Taylor or Gamble to slot in there if needed.

Rochow keeps his spot because of his great performance. Lawrence is solid but not gamebreaking like Ailoia.

This is my side (assuming Lawrence will be picked)

1\. Tui (no one else to take his spot at this time.)
2\. Thompson
3\. Marsters
4\. ? Mwz (might go ok with training)
5\. Nofo
6\. Benji
7\. Brooks
8\. packer.
9\. Goidnet
10\. Eisenhuth
11\. ailoia
12\. Rochow
13\. Taylor

14\. Gamble
15\. Lawrence (he wont get dropped)
16\. Twal
17\. Matulino

Interesting. I can see it but, I'd be careful about moving players around when they're young and early in their careers. I think he needs to build some consistency in his game for awhile. Also, I don't think Aloiai is due back for a couple weeks.

If anyone knows it should be you :laughing:

In - Nofoaluma and Milne
Out - Watene Zelezniak and Naiqama

It's harsh to drop MWZ, but I'd like to see Nofoaluma back. If Aloiai is fit, MCK to centres instead of Milne, with Aloaia on the bench.

I really think it’s too early to gamble on Gamble.
Nofo will have to earn his way back.

MWZ, Kev and Lawrence are all extremely unlucky but I jus couldn't find spots for them. I doubt Lawrence will get dropped because he is the captain but this is the side that I would like to see.
