Who plays left centre and other selections

Posted by Wile E. Coyote on July 8, 2017 at 10:15pm
Josh Hoffman, Frank Pritchard and Manu a Mau? Should be back for the Tigers gameKirsome Auvaa is also availableWould like to see the back line stay as is but would consider Hoffman or Auvaa to replace Takarangi at left centreKenny is doing a good job at right edge-Would be inclined to leave as is.Vave did s great job starting prop.If Mannah is right he should start but if still injured needs to be restedAlvaro is not a starting prop.Would start withVave and Tepai (back in middle until Mannah or Terepo fit)as his defence is better than MatagiThen bench isSmithMatagiPritchard (move to middle - too slow for edge)Nuikore (really not impressed with Alvaro lately but maybe he should be in)

    I would drop smith put in Nuikore
    And leave the rest of the side as is

      Agree..

      Kenny can go to hooker if needed due to injuries..

        Kenny at hooker ? No thanks that's a recipe for total disaster.

      Parra have tried that and been burnt to many times, we need a genuine utility on bench and Smith fits the bill Can guarantee first game we put all forwards on bench again injuries will hit as they did in earlier games this year.

    I tend to agree with fake didget at least until we have a couple more big boppers back in Peni and Frank, then we would have to look at who starts in the forwards to give us the impact we need up the middle? Then, if you are like me and see our backline as potentially the equal to any other club...wait until our pack starts to dominate through the middle, then we will see how good our backline really is with the extra space that will be created for our halves and Gutho!

    Go you Mighty Eels!

      Great point
      Our halves are doing a great job considering
    • fake midget pseudoachondroplasia > Rowdy Roddy July 8, 2017 at 11:52pm
      Rowdy i hope you not calling me a didget but I'm looking forward to peni coming back into side also. He improved his handling and started deliver on his potential before his injury. Easily our most damaging forward in early rounds.
      I really think this is mannahs last year though after all his HIA and being ruled out couple times similar to IDG.
      Next year I belive Evans or Alvaro can step up and get starting roles as they won't be used to break game open, but do tough runs and try get quick play the ball just like mannah whole making opposition defence work.

      Frank Pritchard is too slow in my opinion and can't play big minutes.
    • alexeel17 > alexeel17 July 8, 2017 at 11:20pm
      Good to have the experience in the side and we need size in the middle
