Starting Pack 2010.

[boo_boo]

8. Asotasi
9. Luke
10. Ross
11. Stuart
12. Taylor
13. Crocker

Bench
14. Pettybourne
15. Burgess.

With the embarrassment of riches we have in the forwards John Lang is going to have a hard time fitting everyone in but this is how i see the forward pack for 2010 & we still have Jason Clarke, Beau Falloon & Ben Lowe to consider.

Tyrell?

And why is Roy starting boo, wtf?!!

The Edmeister and Slammin Sam- surely they must start.

As i said Dave an embarrassment of riches to choose from & i think we might see Tyrell in a utility role.

5/8th?!!

Roy is sinking faster than the Titanic. That slide has to be arrested urgently. He needs a rest or something.

I wouldn't leave Pettybourne out of the starting 13.
Crockers busted and i think we should start the year with him on the bench.

 

[boo_boo]

slamminsam, you favour Luke in the F/R ?

 

[Galeforce]

Roy , Taylor and Burgess, i would not expect them to be starting team together . They are game breakers and need to be part of rotation which will keep constant pressure on our competition.
Taylor off , Burgess on etc . same with Roy , though i expect Roy to be the starter of the three.

I see none of these three as workhorses .

Ross , Stuart , Eddie , Geddes , Ben Lowe , Crocker ( if he can last ) will and need to be the workhorses.

I think it is important to think of the future, Pettybourne must start and be reminded that he is picked in front of all the "stars" and then put a long term contract in front of him.

I think Taylor will play centre to start the year so he gets a run

 

[coach]

I will be surprised if Ben Ross starts. In fact I am not expecting much from him this year. Woulkd not surprise meif he retires sometime during the season.

The starting pack should be Asotasi, Luke, Stuart, Burgess, Taylor and Crocker.

Thats 4 forwards who have played international football. If Taylor keeps up his form of the past season we could soon have a pack of 5 test players

Insight, wisdom, let it be so.

Taylor should play inside Vaivai at second row on the left side with Merrit outside them. Vaivai is the future. Reminds me of Jennings.

I like your pettybourne idea. We need to wrap him up long term. But crocker is like steel and should start if anything to boost the others around him and toughen them up. Good decisions to have to make. In the past we didn't have this type of quality player giving us headaches.
