Only thing is you don't want to bring those kids up to early, both need defensive work. Pezet at least can be placeholder for a few wins. Yoh can win games with Pezet.
I would not be surprised to see no changes other than Hopgood of course.
Samrani for Kelly I think is most likely if there is one.
Ryles will not drop Pezet anytime soon, but come round 10 or so if Twidle and or Lorenzo continue to improve they could come in. Issue is once Volkman is back Twidle goes back to 1, I wish he would stay in halves.
I have never been a fan of 2 Hooker system, unless your starting Hooker can play in middle, like Riddell and Marsh could do. Smith can play big minutes and have Papali'i fill in for 10-15 while being there as a Utility works fine. You can still have Da Silva at 19 as worst case scenario Smith goes down early.
But the team will be the same with maybe Samrani on Wing and Tuilagi for Hopgood.
Guymer is a younger version of what de Belin is here for. Cleaning up the middle with 2nd and 3rd man in attempts, get through work and do your share in attack. Guymer can definately do that.
Watching the other games of the round parra seem to be the only club that don't have a heap of quality young backs. I don't think there is a backline in the comp that you wouldnt prefer to parras backline.

"Yep agree. Though clubs like Canberra and Brisbane do it and did well, i just do not like it. I don't mind doing what BA did in between 2020-2022, where he would have Mahoney play 80 each week but then around Round 8-10 he would bring in like…"
"Ok it is a Saturday night and im bored. I'll have a turn, pick the team i would pick, nor that anyone cares. Hopgood suspended in mind too.

"Well put it this way, Brisbane are under way more pressure than us. Brisbane being in a one team town, the biggest fan base in the comp, reigning premiers, Haas leaving for Souths and Reynolds retiring despite saying a month prior he was keen to…"

Guymer has to be 13 he doesn't miss a tackle and Moretti on the bench plus Samani to the wing Russell to centre

Walker, Paulo, Tuivati, Papalii, Brown, Guymer. I'd give Latu a place in the 6 somewhere too if possible.

Kelma, Kelly and Da Silva need to start in NSW Cup for 3-5 weeks and get some rhythm and form.
Watching the other games of the round parra seem to be the only club that don't have a heap of quality young backs. I don't think there is a backline in the comp that you wouldnt prefer to parras backline.
Probably just the titans
