Do we know if he has been training in the backrow or centre?

Id love to see a Ramien/Iro centre pairing

With no inside info, I can tell you with full certainty he will be our starting centre in Rd 1 so long as he is available to play.

He's definitely starting at centre, looks like he's dropped a couple of kilos as well.

Yeah definitely looks trimmed down.
Hopefully theyve worked on his lateral defence as well a bit more

Iro will get a chance this year in the centres.

Or Talakai goes back to the 2nd row

I dont see Talakai going into back row.
IF Wilton gets the nod over Wade (which i stll doubt) then Wade would surely be first choice backup 2nd rower

 

[andrew's_sharks]

Injuries, rep duties and suspensions will happen which will give Iro a chance at some point

Love your optimism around rep duties mate

I’m hoping they are wrong.

More than happy for our players to be in consideration but even more happy to see them overlooked.

Talakai won’t play for nsw again imo.

Would have to be on to get selected again

“Centre Siosifa Talakai was damaging on the left edge, causing Canterbury’s defence headaches. He finished the game with 142 metres, four tackle busts, a line break and a try assist. He could not have done it without his backrower, Teig Wilton, who helped create time and space for Talakai. Wilton also scored two tries.”

Hmm could at least score a try next time

 

[HaroldBishop]

He was his usual beast yesterday, love him.

 

[HaroldBishop]

It's funny people still want to move him.
