I’ve been firmly in the “keep Talakai in the centres” camp for a while, but I feel like it might be necessary to temporarily move him over a spot into the second row, just until Nikora is back on deck. I hate fiddling with a settled spot in the team to try to put a bandaid over another part of the team, especially since Sifa’s been one of our form players so far, but it should be ok for a week or two to help out in an injury crisis.
I was completely onboard with Williams filling in at backrow last week, just felt we missed him in the middle and when he finally moved there, he had a bigger impact on the game, plus with who we have out, he’s required back there in the middle now.
Good excuse to see what Iro can do as well.
1. Kennedy
2. Katoa
3. Ramien
4. Iro
5. Mulitalo
6. Trindall
7. Hynes
8. Kaufusi
9. Brailey
10. Hazelton
11. Talakai
12. Wilton
13. McInnes (c) (is he being charged?)
14. Tuku
15. Williams
16. BHU (Apparently he’s good to go?)
17. Burns
If we dont want to do that you could maybe bring Berrell onto the bench and maybe shoehorn him into a running lock role or alternative dummy half for 20 mins or something. Or you could take the punt on Bradbury, but it sounds like he might need a bit more cooking in reserves.
I dunno just throwing those ideas out there and seeing what sticks.
