I say drop Perrett rather than Grose, for Aubusson. Soliola and Aubusson in the centers is the perfect combination for this match, and allows us to play the extra bench player, instead of wasting a spot with Perrett, who has nowhere near the size possible for a winger against the Warriors. I think we should go with a line up like this, provided there is no injuries other than Riley Brown:
Sydney Roosters:
1. Anthony Minichiello
2. Sam Perrett
3. Mitchell Aubusson
4. Sia Soliola
5. Brent Grose
6. Braith Anasta
7. Mitchell Pearce
8. Mark O'Meley (c)
9. James Aubusson
10. David Shillington
11. Nate Myles
12. Setaimata Sa
13. Craig Fitzgibbon
Interchange:
14. Anthony Tupou
15. Lopini Paea
16. Anthony Cherrington
17. Jake Friend
I have made a number of changes from last weeks side. I am starting with James Aubusson, due to Riley Browns injury. I added Jake Friend to the bench, for when Aubusson needs a break. I moved Sa from the centers to the second row, so I could fit Mitchell Aubusson in the side, at center. I have dropped Perrett from the side, in an attempt to keep Grose, because he is bigger, which is what you need against the bigger Warriors outfit. I have taken Lopini Paea and Anthony Tupou from the starting side, and moved them to the bench, to come on after about 20-30 minutes, to provide impact, in Masons impact. I have made O'Meley captain, which is arguable, because Anasta has been playing well with the captaincy. I have dropped Mickey Paea, in order to fit Aubusson and Friend in the squad, and obviously you need to drop two to include two.
I think that is our best possible side at the moment, and next season we will have Mason instead of Shillington, Shackleton instead of Tupou, and Brown instead of Friend. This is the most logical side, with the best possible combinations. Good luck boys, and I hope Freddie and the team name this line up, as it gives us the most chance of victory.
If Roberts is available, include him rather than Grose.
