Crichton debuted on To'o side. Both have a good pass so Crichton won't let To'o down or anything.

The main thing will be how Ivan is getting them defending at training and both are talented enough to do whatever they're prepared for which I'd guess is Burton on the left as it's similar to 5/8 for us but it's a guess.

It isn’t letting down but you want combinations. The right centre is the weak link. Surely we have a player that can slot straight in without disrupting the rest of the team

can he switch from right centre to left 5/8th easily though? Crichton and Kikau are going well together so they should stay left

You’d say the next 10 rounds or so is when we will start to rest guys anyway. The last 5 rounds would be where you ramp up for the semis. By that time you would see guys mixed around and can pick the best 17

I’d swap Crichton to the right personally.

Not sure about this whole resting players thing. Unless we’re leading the comp comfortably I wouldn’t be resting anyone important.

It’s a pretty small change.

The alternative is playing Naden at right centre, when he’s played all his footy in FG on the left. So either way there’s some unfamiliarity.
