Your team vs Bulldogs

[upthetigers]

S.Fainu should be kept in the backrow
ICE should go back to the bench
The other Fainu Sione should be brought on the bench replacing Seyfarth
L.Fainu to #6

I would be dropping Twal before Seyfarth. I also thought Paps was good against the broncos. Yes we were limited in attack but look at the teams we have faced.

I think our winger Solomon had a go but failed to mark up
I think Bateman looks and is built and is a capable center

Putting Bateman into the backs also allows more size and impact in the forwards

Matamua is bog average , I can’t see a top 17 spot for him unless we are very week for back up , if this is the case we need to go buy a big robust , aggressive front rower for the bench .
imdont mind the idea of Bateman in the centres with Olam as it opens up another spot for a big body and adds solid defence plus he can move and step ok , may even cross the stripe

Api
Uto
Paps

Pole

Latu
Sam Fainu
Twal
Seyfarth

However would like to see bench used more. In particular Latu to come on and play 13 and Pole moves into prop rotation for longer periods in game. Also I don’t mind if Paps gets some rest time for Samuela during the game as part of the bench rotations if injuries etc allow it.
Our biggest issue is that Api looks smashed at the moment.

I like Bateman to the centres.

I’d actually like to see Sione Fainu and Latu Fainu in for Simpkin and Matamua.

Albeit I am a big fan of Alaimalo, I thought he deserves another run. He took some pretty tough carries. However as one other Forumer noted he went off with a HIA so may not be a chance.
