RD9-13: Big Hurdle

[magpie guy]

I wouldn't have Halatau & Austin in the same 17. One or the other.

I'd put Sironen at 6, Fulton in back row, Austin on the bench. When Austin comes on, Siro moves into the back row, so its essentially the same as having 4 forwards on the bench.

I can definitely see that working MU...I question why you would bring on Austin later in the game rather than bringing Siro in as a straight backrow replacement.

I can see the value in using Siro early on as another forward both in attack and defence so a fresh Austin can carve up the tiring opposition but wondering if that was your thinking?

I'm against changing the halves mid game.

1 from 2 ladies and gentlemen. Just one more game to go and we are over the big hurdle with a well deserved bye.

If all goes well and there are no injuries in Origin or Broncos game, we will have one of the strongest teams we've had all year available for Rd13 against the Knights.
