Who would be your Auckland Nines 18?

Most clubs don"t pick their top sides but players who could best benefit plus give the side some competitiveness .

For mine would be:

Robinson,French Foloua,Radradra,Lavaka Moss,Kelly, Tadkarangi.Sefa,Gower,Pauli,Terrepo,Alvaro,King,Edwards,Twal,

Pritchard,O,Brien.

Obviously we don't want top guns injured but still need some experience.

What is your thoughts?

    I wouldn't play any of our best 20 players we don't want to risk any injuries
  • Foran, Watmough, Scott. Over $2 million on display there Ronald.

  • Semi is a must.

    How can we have an Eels 9s side without the Fijian Flyer!

    He has stood up for us this year and deserves the C next to his name for the Nines.

    • I like you have included nelson . I'm with you on your selection.
  • 1. Gordon (I'd at least play him)

    2. Radradra (He's made for the Nines)

    3. Folau (At the moment, he will be our new centre, providing Hoppa leaves)

    4. Morgan 

    5. Robinson

    6. French

    7. Moss

    8. Twal

    9. King (Or De Gois)

    10. Alvaro

    11. Ma'u

    16. Pauli

    17. Seffa

    Don't risk Foran or Scott, or any player that has had major off season surgery (Watmough, Wicks, Taka, Peats).

  • I won't be playing Foran or Edwards! We lost him all season because of the 9's need him to be fit for the year.
  • As much as I'd like to see Bill Moss involved with the Eels, I don't think a spot in the Nines squad would be the right fit for him.
  • Follow Bennett's lead and pick as many Wenty/u20s players as possible.
  • LMAO hey what do you expect from the asylum?
