Since the thread is calling for my team, not the one I'm expecting to get picked, I'll go with this:
1\. Tedesco
2\. Nofoaluma
3\. Chee Kam
4\. Simona
5\. Heleta
6\. Moses
7\. Brooks
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Seumanufagai
11\. Sue
12\. Fine
13\. Taylor
14\. Lawrence
15\. Felise
16\. Aloiai
17\. Liddle
It's been made pretty clear that Cherrington isn't considered a hooking option any more, Rowdy needs a rest and I think Tim Grant has been outplayed by our other three props.
Ava, Woodsy and JJ are all capable of playing big minutes, and the Panthers don't exactly have the biggest props going around so I don't think it'll cost us. New defensive combinations may cause trouble but they're all professionals right?
Sue has to be told to find the opposition half and hit him as hard as he can as often as he can. Watching the Raiders game, Tapine was an absolute monster and he isn't built all to differently to Sue. Don't understand Aloiai's minutes at the moment so I'd rather he come off the bench to provide impact, he can play up the guts if the props are struggling (or Sue, whichever of the two feels like it). Taylor came to us because he wanted to play at 13 in first grade, so let's bloody pick him there before we lose him.
I like Frozone but he and Moses just can't be trusted next to each other, Chee Kam in almost on defence alone. I think Nofo definitely struggles defensively but he's playing catch up 90% of the time and his runs are too valuable to lose.
From what I've seen Heleta is basically Nofo but a bit better under the high ball, he'd definitely help out with yardage with only three props.
Halatau to 'rest' for concussion and a specialist hooker (or two) to be picked.
