  I heard rumours that Eric Grothe is keen on going to Japanese Rugby, so this team is based on him going there.
  
  Still not 100% sure if we're going to keep both Robson and Kingston. Anyone got any news on this?
  
  1. Jarryd Hayne
  2. Krisnan Inu
  3. Timana Tahu
  4. Joel Reddy
  5. Luke Burt
  6. Daniel Mortimer
  7. Jeff Robson
  8. Nathan Cayless (c)
  9. Matthew Keating
  10. Justin Poore
  11. Nathan Hindmarsh
  12. Ben Smith
  13. Feleti Mateo
  
  14. Kevin Kingston / Kris Keating
  15. Fuifui Moimoi
  16. Shane Shackleton
  17. Tim Mannah
  
  This is, IMO, the best possible 17. I believe Mortimer and Robson are our future long-term halves. I'm a fan of Robson's structural and organisational ability which I believe is continuing to develop, along with his solid defence.
  
  The lethal 07 Inu-Tahu combination needs to be realised again, and I'm a big fan of bringing Moimoi off the bench has a massive impact player. As far as I'm concerned, the only reason why he wasn't used like this in 2009 was because we had nobody good enough to fill the void for the first 20 minutes up-front and win the initial and crucial battles. Anderson tried this with Mannah for several rounds by starting him and putting Moimoi on the bench but it didn't work. I feel that with a NSW Origin prop there in Poore, this can be done, and Moimoi's true strengths can be realised as he'll cannonball over the tired forwards in the latter stages of each half.
