Good side, but would you rather have J Ro vs Matai or Hurrell vs Matai

slightly OT, we have Benry in the running to play. Can you see Captain Mannering at some stage losing the captaincy to him? From what I have seen, Benry has future skipper written all over him.

Perhaps

Mannering i think will be around for another 5-6 seasons so unless they groom Benry in about 4-5 years who knows. I hate it when the media say potential captain this and that. Elijah Taylor went through that last season and Rapira a couple of seasons ago

I'm picking them to line up like this:

Locke
Tupou
Ropati
Hurrell
Vatuvei
Maloney
Johnson
Packer
Friend
Ta'ai
Mateo
Mannering
Taylor

Brown
Matulino
Lousi
Ben Henry

...as Hurrell has been playing alongside Vatuvei.

Hey guys

good luck this yr, hopefully go 1 better then last yr.

just looking at you bench how do you guys see your forward rotation working? If anyone who knows could please help answer my questions below that would be great.

Taia and Lousi as props replacing packer and matiulino?

Then brown coming on playing 2nd row maybe replacing mateo or will he replace friend?

And do you think taylor will definetly being playing 80 mins at lock?

Fantasy RL?

It's safe to assume one of Lousi or Ta'ai will start as I'm sure we don't want the two rookie props on the field at once.

Brown will be the second row sub, replacing Mateo I believe.

My guess is Taylor to play 80...

But who really knows =)

Yea mainly for fantasy purposes, although I was curious just to know how that bench would work considering the lack of props at first glance and with no replacement hooker like you had last year.

I thought that might be the case with mateo having a rest, i think he plays so much better when he gets that 20 minute breather on the bench and then he can come on and finish the game really strong.

Thanks for having a go at answering....hope you are right and taylor does play 80. He will make 50 tackles a game!

Friend will play 80 minutes, and Lousi and Ta'ai have been converted into props over the offseason.
And yeah I am hoping Taylor makes 50 per game and misses SFA!
