You need a utility on the bench these days, even just for injuries sake. Maguire probably isn't up to playing 80 minutes a match anyway.
1. Hayne
2. Burt
3. Morgan
4. Reddy
5. Hicks
6. Morts (sigh)
7. Robson
8. Mannah
9. Maguire
10. Allgood
11. Hindy
12. Smith
13. Horo
14. Keating
15. Lasalo
16. Shacks
17. Moimoi
One hooker would be doable for us.
It'd involve shuffling Hayne (or someone like Reddy) to 5/8 in the case of an injury to that hooker, though.
The team actually has a good bit of flexibility and utility in it to allow a four-forward bench, especially with the likes of Smith (experience) and Lasalo or Horo (youth) capable of filling in as a centre in a pinch.
The big question, however, is if Maguire was up to it. Only he and Kearney would have a good idea on that, I'd say.
