Auckland 9's (Possible side)

Posted by Raid on January 16, 2017 at 2:34am

Going on past years i recall an 18 man squad will be chosen.If allowed to send any player without a recomended criteria then i think the Eels can take take out again if they're willing to send their across the ditch.Here's what i think our best would look like:B.FrenchS.Radradra ? (K.Auvaa)M.JenningsB.TakairangiJ.HoffmanC.NormanJ.FogartyC.GuthersonG.JenningsW.SmithK.PritchardM.MauT.MoeroaB.ScottK.EdwardsS.VaveF.PritchardC.NelsonIn saying that i highly doubt Arthur will so many of our high profile players.Thoughts?

Think BA will rest Taka from the nines, given he has had a big injury toll, probably want to save him

Ava suspended. Wont risk taka and jennings.

Michael Jennings???
he doesn't get involved when it's 13 on 13.
how's he going to hide in 9's????

I think Gutho and Fog will go. Cannot see Scott going. It'll be a decent side anyway.
Sorry Mac cannot agree about Jennings. He's highly marked in NRL and I thought he did ok last season anyway good debate.

  he's capable of so much more in attack. he needs a big year.

We're not risking that many NRL players no chance. There's definitely going to be many Wentworthville players in that squad.

I don't care who plays in the nines as long no Parramatta player get hurt and we win it again

Hopefully beven norman gutho scott mau all sit it out this year. We send a young team no injuries and get knocked out in the group round.
