I still think our best team is...........

[Franko]

We are 2-1 and sitting 2nd on the table. Cannot ask for much more then that. But I see some problems with the team.

We were great against the Roosters, ordinary against the Eels and for a fair part of the Knights game we were ordinary again. If it was not for Wing I have no doubt we would have lost to Newcastle.

I don't believe we are putting the best team on the field. If I was picking the team this is what it would be

1 Wesser
2 Merritt
3 Best
4 Champion
5 Talanoa
6 Wing
7 Sandow
8 Asotasi
9 Luke
10 Greenfield orr Geddes
11 Fa'alogo
12 Stuart
13 Sutton

14 Greenfield or Geddes
15 B Lowe
16 J Lowe
17 ?

As the team stands i would be certainly moving Faalago to the 2nd row, Sutton to lock and Wing to 5/8. I would also be using Jamie Simpson instead of Corrigan. Simpson may have some deffencive problems but he adds a lot more in attack than Corrigan does.

wing
mcpherson
crossman
ben lowe

with wing coming off the bench he doesn't have to do the hard tackling early in the game. he can come on with 10 to go and give luke a extended break at half time then either start both for the second half or bring luke back after 10 and rest a forward and move sutton to lock then you have so many dangerous players on the field for the last half a game as long as we're still in contest can easily put points on the board as was the case last week and hardly seen sandow in the second half he sat back and enjoyed the show
