      I'd imagine tepai will spend some time there along with scott and terepo.

      I think he was playing middle for Wenty but could be wrong

      Interesting, I didn't think he had it in him to play in the middle. Seems like an edge player from what I saw of him at his best playing to for manly. Maybe he has modified his game.

      Williams future is in the gutz. Play hard run hard get a quick play the ball. The odd offload. That's what we need from him no less.

      He is a big unit at 118 kg, could be a master stroke if he is fit.

      He needs to run just wide of the middle, thats where he will do the most damage. I guess we will see how he goes in the middle.

    not a bad backline considering, and a bit of size with Williams and Terepo
