Ideas for changes next week ?

Posted by Eli Stephens on March 16, 2025 at 6:15pm

Team looks very disjointed in attack and all over the place, ideas on changes for next week ?

Ado Carr will be back but I thought Samrani was great on debut so Russell should prob drop out. Hawkins definitely in for Volkman. Guys like Matto Kelma might need to come back in for experience as well.

Will be a rough season buckle up.

  Yes I said it before. Samrani would be a good backrower.

1. Iongi
2. JAC
3. Samrani
4. Penisni (deserved to be dropped but unfortunately we have no real options as Dunster and AMS still need reserve grade)
5. Russel
6. Lomax
7. Brown (just force him to run the show)
8. Joe O
9. Hands
10. Williams
11. Lane
12. Kautoga
13. Hopgood
14. Smith
15. Tuivita
16. Paulo
17. Doorey
Honestly no idea.

  Russell has had more than enough chances. The guy is whatever rating is below poor.
  
  AMS had one go and did OK. Give him another go.

  I like the thinking in the halves. Neither Volkman or DB adding any creativity but unfortunately we need DB in the side, somewhere. I like to see Lomax have a crack as a runnning no.6
  
  Is Penisini's brother available? I think Will needs to be dropped. Defence read is so bad and his lack of speed makes for an easy target.
  
  I have no answer for our edge back rowers. Need to go to market with DB's money.
