I would drop Russell far too slow and not strong enough, give Tago a go in the centres. Not sure who gets the winger spot maybe Lumelume, Harper or Cini? Guymer to start for Ofa - showed up our forwards the other night so give him the start. Doorey for Lane. Moretti for Greig.

  Just not sure on changing combinations every week could possibly swap tago and Russell but I'll give them some time to gel. Starting the experienced forwards and Guymer off bench with his energy prob my idea but he could easily start to. Asi and Greig had good games at cup level so I've got them in to

I watched the Reggie's highlights and Harper defensive reads were as bad as Russel at times. But other than Harper are only other options are Asi, Cini, Loizou and Lumelume who all have worse defensive issues. Dunster and Martin may return in cup this week or next week.

  Surely cini or loizure could do a job on the wing? Russell needs to go to Reggies no more chances. Baz will probably go lumelume.

    Loizou first game in cup in a long time. Has been playing RM.

I don't think Barrett will name Greig, Makatoa was named over him for Christ sakes that shows the confidence levels in him. I'm hoping Ofahiki Ogden is back.
