Is Issac Luke..

[shiznit]

Great to see. The Kiwis have lacked depth in the key plamaking positions since the year dot.

BUT - Hohaia needs to stay fullback IMO.

i would like to see Kevin Locke given the fullback spot. Hohaia may have to play at Halfback with Fien out injured and Keiran Foran probably the only other Kiwi half in the NRL playing at the moment.

1. Locke
6. Marshall
7. Hohaia
9. Luke

Bench: Heremaia

or maybe

1. Locke
6. Foran/Hohaia
7. Marshall
9. Luke

Bench: Heremaia/Hohaia

Whats with Heremia in the kiwi's?

He still has alot to prove he is good enough for international not just chuck him a jumper after 3 good games, thought we were over those days:roll:

 

[Rovelli]

IMO Isaac just needs to be more consistent week-in, week-out to be recognised as one of the best in the NRL.

 

[Johns Magic]

Yes he is.

Beau Champion is also the world's best centre.

 

[natheel]

\he's definatley coming close to cam smith thats for sure

 

[Johns Magic]

He was terrible in round 1 and has strung three awesome games in a row together. This thread is probably half a season too early considering Cam Smith is currently playing.

Robbie Farah is also showing great form.

 

[thehattrickrabbit]

The whole team was terrible in Round 1, Issac as an individual tried really hard and was probably one of our better players.

Aaron is as likely to be a Kiwi as I am. That is just idiot talk on kiddie forums.

Being a NZ-elegible playmaker is like Stephen Bradbury in a race with only one or two other guys... Only one or two have to fall over before you get the callup.

I'll be on the sideline cheering you on!

WTF? the reason why Heremaia is in the frame is because theres no one else...

who are the other Kiwi Hookers/stopgap dummy halves in the frame besides Luke?
Fein's injured...
Leuluai is in ESL...

so its really between... Hohaia, Halatau, Heremaia & maybe Alex Glenn.

so if Hohaia is played at Fullback or in the halves and your not going to consider Heremaia... it would have to be Halatau... whos only just come back into football... or Alex Glenn who im not even sure if he plays hooker.

 

[Benjitheking]

Masada Iosefa seems to be going well this year and I think Terence Seuseu might be a Kiwi

Bit of baggage with young Terance - doesn't go down well. I agree he's a good player though.

 

[doogiehowser_md]

I stated modern era.

The hooker role has changed alot over the years. A guy like Alan Rushton wouldn't even get a run these days as he was the old tough as teak hooker who used to hook for the ball at scrums.

Richie Swain is easily the best of them all!

WTF? Luke to play 80.........would actually pick Halatau if Luke aint there just because experience.

Dont get all emotional and sh*t but IMO Heremia isnt international material and at 27 is still yet to prove he has what it takes to be a 1st grader week in week out. Has had a good start but the last two games have been average.

I would even play Brown there even though he aint had a game at 9 in a while.

 

[Dirty Hoe]

luke to play 80

you cant be serious with heremaia...a kiwi jumper is worth more than 2 good games in the nrl
just a kick in the teeth for all the former kiwis who have put the jumper on

true that

 

[Drzoidberg]

Would you pick him Skinz?

 

[Dirty Hoe]

Richie Swain is easily the best of them all!

the way the game has evolved...i doubt swain would even get a start in the nrl

 

[Skinner]

Not for the Kiwis mate.
