I don't see why Witt has been dropped TBH. He must have a bad attitude or something. Maybe he is a lazy trainer. or perhaps it's just because we are looking to offload him for next year?
Either way it's mysterious to me. Just before his injury Witt was starting to pull out some of his brilliant individual plays, and I see no reason why Rovelli is back at 7 and Fien being used at 6. It boggles my mind. I thought the bald freak was gone for good - or at least being used solely as a ball-running 6/9... which I am reasonably happy with.
Anyway it's great to see Fai starting in the centres, the guy's a f*cking monster out wide. If i had to mark him I'd probably feign a serious injury early in the game and watch from safety.
Fai and Kirk, and Tate and Solomona, form two very fast and strong centre/wing combos. We should be a big threat out wide.
Also good to see Matulino retained yet again.
So yeah hopefully Ropati drops into oblivion for a couple of weeks and we use the same rotation of Rovelli and Witt as against the Tigers.
