Does that seem right?

 

[Tupac Shakur]

Sonny-Bill at 5/8? You have got to be kidding me. He is so damaging in the backrow it's not funny. He needs to be hitting it up not passing.

 

[Dogaholic]

I think Mathew Utai will be in the team. Lolesi's injury might cost him a place in the team

 

[thickos]

I can't see Wiki at lock. SBW to 13, Wiki to 11 and one of the Panther boys to the bench.

He could play as a running 5/8 like Shaun timmins for NSW.

 

[Tupac Shakur]

He could but that's what NZ has done in the past and it hasn't worked for them. If he starts in the forwards he is going to be more dangerous to Australia and England compared to playing 5/8.

 

[Johns Magic]

When is Marshall back?

Also, Hopefully Thurston chooses to play for them

 

[thuganomics]

Marshall wont be back, but he will be halfback for the NZ team when fit.

 

[Mighty Tiger]

When is Marshall back?

Also, Hopefully Thurston chooses to play for them

Marshall won't be back until next year

Thurston has already announced he wants to play for QLD SOO I think about 2yrs ago

The kids got talent but thats going a bit far at this stage

he's not even a halfback for the tigers he's a 5/8th (and even then he's only played very few starting games)

 

[Johns Magic]

1. Webb
2. Vainikolo(if available)/Lolesi
3. Whatuira/Carmont
4. Vagana
5. Utai
6. Tony
7. Thurston [-o< /Paul/Ropati
8. N.Cayless
9. L.Anderson

11. Puletua
12. Wiki
13. SBW

14. Gaulavao
15. J.Cayless
16. Asotasi
17. Kidwell

That's if Pritchard is still injured

 

[choc_soldier]

Not sure if Pritchard will be fit in time - still has the knee injury. But being named must suggest something.

Great impact off the bench if he is picked.

 

[Not so silent Bob]

When the hell did Motu Tony come into the equation?

Isn't he playing for Toowoomba?

 

[choc_soldier]

I can't see Wiki at lock. SBW to 13, Wiki to 11 and one of the Panther boys to the bench.

Which one would you drop?

If it was to happen, I think it would be Galuvao.

 

[Johns Magic]

When the hell did Motu Tony come into the equation?

Isn't he playing for Toowoomba?

:roll:

 

[girvie]

Alex Chan should be on the bench.

 

[Johns Magic]

Alex Chan should be on the bench.

Maybe.

There is so much depth in the NZ pack

 

[choc_soldier]

If Jason Wrigley didn't do his knee, he could have been a chance too.

Good prospect for next year maybe.

 

[shiznit]

When is Marshall back?

Also, Hopefully Thurston chooses to play for them

Marshall won't be back until next year

Thurston has already announced he wants to play for QLD SOO I think about 2yrs ago

He actually might end up playing for NZ. because Darren Lockyer will be ahead of him in both QLD and AUS. why not, i dont blame him.

 

[Martli]

For the Nt Harbour Test probably something like:

1. Tony/Webb
2. Utai
3. Vagana
4. Whatuira
5. Meli
6. Thurston if not then prob Perenara
7. *Sigh* Tomas Leleui
8. Rauhihi
9. L. Anderson
10. N or J Cayless
11. Wiki
12. Galavou/Puletua
13. V. Anderson/Kidwell

14. Williams
15. Galavou/Puletua/Chan
16. N or J Cayless/Asotasi/ Pelea'asena
17. Tony/Webb

And there's still the likes of Lauiti'iti, Paul, Vanikolo, hape etc. that should be able to play after the nth harbour test.
