Brooks is going to be so much better wearing the 7 jersey 🙄

How many players have to be re-arranged in order to make Brooks look good?

Toa should feel like all his Christmases have come at once.

I agree, To'a is awful, so is JTJ. I would have had Tupou and Brooks in the centres...
Douhie has got what he wanted now playing 6 so he should be happy, using the remaining games as trials gearing up to play 6 for Lebanon in the world cup
This is a good side we need to fit everyone in and moving Joffa to front row is a good move
I think we will beat Penrith with this team, all those players out we have got this
very very confident
I won't comment on the halves merry go round. However I like Simpkin on the bench instead of Liddle. I like both young forwards remaining in the team.
I don't like Kelma. I'd have him out of the 17, Garner starting and ideally Stefano on the bench. If he is not right and needs a rest id have Alex Seyfarth on the bench.
Didn't watch the reserve grade unfortunately so I can't comment on AJ's form. Not sure what he needs to do to make the team at centre.. if we are blooding young guys and giving them first grade experience.. surely AJ gets a few weeks at centre to see what he is made of.

Don’t feel the hate for To’a like many others, just needs more time. JTJ is a waste of time imo, Tupou could easily take his spot.
Keep steering the right path
Positives
Jake Simpkin in place of Liddle
Ken back
Negatives
Halves roundabout
Hastings in teh middle
Moving out best player out of position (Joffa)
Toa in Tupou out
Matamua starting Garner off teh bench
Sick of Tuilagi stinking it up but we are short on forwards
No Stefano - anyone know why? Not sure why Pole wouldn't start and have Matamua off the bench.
Hastings at 13 will be interesting with the tackling workload required. Joe has been very good in that position.
JTJ has been given too many opportunities for mine. When he plays, I feel as though we are playing with a man short, I rarely see him.

I dont think they will have Hastings defending in the middle, but cant get away from the fact its one less big body on the field and more workload for the big guys.
Hastings to lock, Cronk was pushing this last night on 360
