Shit, has smith been named at fullback already? I thought the teams got announced at 4pm? The guy is terrible at taking kicks
I reckon he will be named there but hopefully BA does The Old Switcharoo and has The Hoff play there game day.

One thing I am critical of with BA is the players never being named in the position they will play. I mean f**k me, its not like it fools anyone or messes with clubs game plans.

It just f**ks with my OCD, and I hate that.

I like the look of that squad.

Personally am happy to see Gennings get a run and also Kaysa coming back in.
Rumours are TRex had a good game on Sunday for Wenty so let's see if he still has it.

EDIT: Our injury list seems to be growing somewhat with the following unavailable for selection.
- Taka
- French
- Gutho
- Hayne
- Evans

On form we lose nothing with Evans,Taka replaced by Terepo and KE. T rex takes Matagi spot.
Smith for Bevan isnt a huge downgrade
Hayne been rubbish so hopefully GJennings takes his chance.

I like this team.
The bench will worry the opposition. Happy to give Beau another chance but gee Niakuore or Goeer must be close.

I’m going to think the worst and have Hayne and French both out this week.

1. Smith
2. Gennings
3. Jennings
4. Auvau
5. Hoffman
6. Norman
7. Moses
8. Brown
9. Kaysa
10. Mannah
11. Mau
12. Tepai
13. Scott

14. Alvaro
15. Trex
16. Terepo
17. Edwards (King if injured)

I would play Brown at prop, the way he has been used seems like he is just going to be a battering ram. Have him start with Scott also in the middle and I think we have a really strong middle!
Kaysa comes back for his mongrel and enthusiasm he shows, for mine he was starting to make the hooker role his own before injury last year.
I’d bring Trex and Terepo into the side, Two guys that with a 20-25 stint just running hard can really get us on the front foot.
For mine it’s time to give Evans a week at Wenty to wake him up, he has showed nothing the first few weeks yet earnt a starting spot last week.
Time for a couple of changes BA
And the prize goes to Joely who correctly named the squad.
Didnt' get the starting positions right but well done mate.

Looks like Smith will be fullback with no backs named 14 through 21. I'm honestly dissapointed by that. I think its a big mistake not having Smith on the bench to cover for Kaysa and any backline injurys. My preference also would be for Gower and Marata to replace TRex and Beau.
A bit like Frichard last year who got preference over Marata and showed sweet FA. Im tipping the same with TRex.
Looks like everyone has hurdled Matagi and Vae.
