AUCKLAND NINES SIDE.

Will the defending champions be once again using a mixture of experience and less experienced players in Auckland in 2017.

My 18 players are:

Will Smith

Bevan French

Kirsome Auvaa

George Jennings

Corey Norman

Jamil Fogarty

Cameron King

Vai Toutai

Semi Radradra

Tepai Moreua

Kenny Edwards

Cody Nelson

Alex Twal

Kaysa Pritchard

Daniel Alvaro

Penne Terrepo

Nathan Brown 

James Hasson

I don't know if David Gower is still with us. I would have included him instead of Hasson.

What is your side?

  • Greenturd took the prize money away. Does it mean he took the title as well.

  • Title was taken away by NRL
  • No Hock?
    • Not yet.......should be here by round 1 though.
  • They still won the final game though. In their minds they are defending champions.

  • I stil find it laughable that they stripped the title due to salary cap rorting when the roosters have had Brad Fittler and Braith Anasata play,the Rabbitohs had Matt King and Manly tried to get Beaver to play. It's a Mickey Mouse pre season comp and I hope we send a bare minimum, bare bones team.We won't be risking injury and everyone will be primed for round 1. In the end no one gives a shit who won the nines.
    • Good point. How much were they paId and was this added to the salary cap?
  • I wouldn't be taking Norman. Too valuable to the side and our only recognized half.

    Take Fogarty and Robson.
    • We took Norman last year and things were fine. 

      He was the player of the tournament last year and if we're to have any chance of winning the Nines comp again, we need him to play. 

    • Totally agree Chief, i'd actually throw Fogarty in the deep end for the 9s and not use Corey.
