So he more or less said Navarette is getting a run, I wonder who drops out. Sutton, Tautai and Isa would seem most at risk. I've not been a fan of Joel but thought he looked dominant defensively v Wire.

Escare
Davies Farrell Gilly Burgess
Williams Tomkins
Flower Tommy Nararette
TT Joel
Lockers
-----------------
Powell Bateman Clubb Sutton
Creative team!
Always wanted to see Faz tried at centre, good size for the position, good hands and seems faster than the likes of Bateman.
Escare to play 80 at fb, Sam to play 80 at SH. Only change positionally is Powell coming in at 9 for Tommy. Keeps consistency in key positions.
Really like to see TT as a SR. Get him running further out wide at smaller men. He's a big athletic lad, I believe this could be his position.
Bateman for Lockers. But, when Lockers returns keep Bateman on. Lockers to come on for another player/forward. Lockers can come on for a prop etc. Between Lockers and Bateman we can cover pretty much everywhere on the pitch bar wing/FB.
Time Joe Burgess had a good run in the team. Time to get fit and back to his best.

Interesting selections, but it's made me realise more than ever that it's time this club acquired a pair of decent centres from somewhere. |

I admit I purposely tried to be creative. But I'd honestly like to see Faz given a run a centre and TT in the SR. |

Do you think Tautai is quick enough to defend at second row, and fit enough to stay on for the amount of time they play? I don't, and would look at dropping him if Navarette is doing as well as Wane indicates. |

Yes I do. He's an athletic forward. |

He’s either not fit enough or probably more accurate, not pushing himself enough to even hold a spot spelling in the front row at the minute so there’s no way he can be trusted to go in at second row.
There’s a decent enough front rower in there somewhere with Tautai but he’s conned us in his time at the club. He played his socks off in the 2nd half of 2016 to get himself in a spot for a new deal and ever since that was signed in the early stages of last year, he’s dropped off a cliff and gone back to his form of year one at the club.
It’s become boring waiting for him to put a shift in again. |
