CHANGES FOR ROUND 4

Posted by Big Dave on March 17, 2017 at 10:24pm

Tonight's game was disgraceful. I think the team did a Penrith and starting reading the newspapers on how good they were going.

- Takarangi to the bench and becomes our new utility player as his defence was very poor tonight. George Jennings/Auva'a to replace Taka (Whoever plays better this weekend for Wenty). O'Brien to drop off the bench.

- Robson to hooker if Kaysa is not fit next week. Norman to 7.

- Mau to bench. For a current Test player Ma'u was crap and was the grey man on the park. Frank Pritchard to starting left edge as Frank had a dig tonight and is getting fitter.

- Terepo to replace Alvaro on bench.

My team would look like this next week:

1. French

2. Semi

3. M.Jennings

4. G.Jennings/Auva'a

5. Hoffman

6. Gutherson

7. Norman

8. Mannah

9. K.Pritchard/Robson

10. Matagi

11. F.Pritchard

12. Moeroa

13. Scott

14. Takarangi

15. Ma'u

16. Brown

17. Terepo

If Obrien is chosen over Vave, Terepo, Twal or Tanginoa again , I'll hand my badge in

  I'm with u Chief, not sure what the non use of him tonight was about, but it's a clear indication that he will look elsewhere for someone else next week.
  Although O'Brien doesn't really impress, he is solid. So will be interesting to hear the explanation

  If Vave plays strong this weekend you would think we pick him for the Cronulla game, but Terepo is a bit of a coach favourite. I'd probably prefer Tanginoa over Scott at the moment as Scott's attack is non existent.

  Where is Taka?
Leith Holding March 17, 2017 at 10:31pm

Good chance Moeroa will be out for at least a week for the shoulder charge.

you cant make that assumption about scott for just one game. he is a leader in our pack and is also an important part of our pack. e had a bad game but i do agree his attack is slowing. but id say he isnt in the team for his attack
- Micka > Joshua March 17, 2017 at 10:38pm
  
  Yet he set up one of our two tries.
- Big Dave > Joshua March 17, 2017 at 10:39pm
  
  My observation on Scott's attack is probably from his last dozen or so games. His stats with his attack for some time has been poor. Scott's attack is the worst of all of our forwards (edge or middle).

    agree but as i said he is a key part of our defence and line speed
