Panthers should go alright. Plenty of pace and creativity through the team. Speed and creativity in each position should allow a well balanced team .
James Roberts, Kevin Naiqama, Dean Whare, Eto Nabouli and Dallin Watene-Zelezniak pffer speed and class to the backs. Josh Mansour would probably be a great guy to have too. He is near impossible to stop one on one, so his lack of pace might no matter if the ball gets spread quickly.
Segeyaro and Soward offer a lot of pace to the spine, if Sowie uses his running game we could carve up like crazy. Then in the forwards we have Peachey and Robinson who are pretty quick. I think McKendry could be a bit of a beast in a game like this too.
At the end of the day every team can field a strong team. Its a matter of what coach comes up with the best tactics for squad selection. Will pace be the biggest asset? One on one strength? Or odds on a good mix of all. But what works could be the team who selects the opposite of the bulk of other teams. If most teams are stacked with speedsters, a team full of big men and tackle breakers could run riot over them and be up to the task defensively.
