The only problem is see with Wagon in the pack is that he doesnt give us the kind of go forward we need. Sure great defender but really his hitups are weak and he doesn't make many of them. Against sides like the Roosters, Bulldogs, Panthers etc we need all 6 starting forwards digging in and gaining good field position. I can't see Wagon doing that. But i still think he is good enough for the starting 13.

Tahu only came here for 2 reasons, the money and the chance to play centre.

Wagon will defend and take the workload off Hindy and Morrison. This will allow Wagon to defend the middle of the ruck with both other backrowers defending and attacking on the fridges of the ruck. If this is SMiths plan than we might well see the old Hindy.

its frustrating though cause wagon does have the ability to be an awsome ball runner, but he just doesnt run up enough or with any aggression/speed

I know what you mean. He seems to have lost a couple cylinders. But he needs to be in the team.

I take it from that side that god must be either Robinson, Wagon or Afamsaga?

Great side Pazza :clap:

I think the best part about the side i named is that it is defencively sound. Apart from Tahu and Grothe i dont see any defencive weaknesses. They can be forgiven since they are such great attacking players.
