Would you take Talakai or Nikora for the bench spot if Wade and Teig are starting ?
While it would be nice to think that with reduced minutes Nikora could come on, go hard and do more in attack Talakai has a bit more utility I feel and also brings his own style of brute force impact. I think hes a better player with a future at our club. Nikora I am not confident in either of those things.
I would go with Talakai as he is a strong middle and can also cover second row in a pinch. He crapped all over Nikoras performance on the weekend despite getting less practice in trials ect.
