Great White
There will be more than 17 deserving players available by the look of it.
Assuming Gallen and Taga are back as reported.
No matter what, I would not leave Capewell out. I would even go as far as saying he needs decent minutes.
1 - Barba
2 - Feki
3 - Bird
4 - Leutele
5 - Holmes
6 - Maloney
7 - Townsend
8 - Fifita
9 - Ennis
10 - Prior
11 -
12 -
13 - Gallen (c)
14 -
15 -
16 -
17 -
Of those 6 open spots the pool to choose from: Graham, Lewis, Bukuya, Capewell, Heighington, Sene-Lefayo, Tagataese, Beale.
I reckon you can reduce that down by immediately making a choice between JSL and Taga. I would go Taga because they are both mediocre but Taga can make a bust.
Then it is down to Taga vs Beale and comes down to strategy. 4 forwards vs 3 and a back.
Because a fourth forward would just take minutes away from Prior, Fifita and Capewell, I would pick Beale. Even if Chad isn't hooked you could have Bird play in the middle when Beale comes.
My final lineup:
1 - Barba
2 - Feki
3 - Bird
4 - Leutele
5 - Holmes
6 - Maloney
7 - Townsend
8 - Fifita
9 - Ennis
10 - Prior
11 - Lewis
12 - Graham
13 - Gallen (c)
14 - Bukuya
15 - Capewell
16 - Heighington
17 - Beale
I would be interested in others thoughts. Particularly if reasoning is given.
