So who replaces Tonga

So if Hoppa joins Hayne in NSW squad, that's 3 outside backs needed. Thoughts on how our backline might look?

  • we're fucked...complete inexperience in our 1-5 now average age 21

  • Tautai and Morgan
  • Good one Brett, that actually looks better than what i had in mind

  • Sio
    Faraimo/Goodall
    Folou
    Morgan/Toutai
    Radrada
    Norman
    Sandow
  • Going to hurt now.  Three classy players gone from side.  Hope it is not Penrith mark 2

  • I would probably use Edwards over Manu.

  • 1 Sio 2 Semi 3 Morgan 4 Vai 5 Faraimo

  • may be 1 hunt 2 sio 3 morgan 4 vai 5 semi

    • As much as I was an advocate of Hunt coming straight into the fullback spot for the Penrith game and earlier on in the year when Hayne was going to be out, I don't think that should be the case anymore. Sio is our next best fullback at the club.

    • Why is Sio too small for fullback?

      I haven't checked his Bio but I am sure he is larger than; Moylan; Perrett; Slater; Barba; Milford; Minichello; Tomkins & Gordon. Those are all starting fullbacks in the NRL and most are highly regarded. It is not a valid argument that Sio is too small to be a fullback.
