I hope Averillo is a late inclusion. It would be a baptism of fire against the big Parra wingers but Chrichton is horrible and at least Averillo has speed and attacking ability.
Well he is still listed on the extended bench, so he might get a call up.

That's what I thought the plan was initially. It doesn't make sense to start Averillo in the trials, he plays pretty well and then is dropped for Chrichton who's done nothing to impress..

We'll see if it was just a smokescreen to take pressure off him or not.

What does everyone think the forward rotations and minutes will look like with CHN dropped?

I can't see Stimson lasting 80 with how out of shape he's looked thus far.

Britt or RFM will probably replace him on the edge. Hopefully Renouf can get 35 minutes plus.

Makes sense. I hope he doesn't play Tolman 70 minutes and Napa and Elliott 55 plus as none of the three provide the impact RFM and Renouf provide and with CHN out and Stimson in, we have an even more of a one dimensional and slow starting pack.

Pay legit picked the most one dimensional pack possible.

Averillo won’t be playing
Spoke to his sister at Oztag
He’s 18th man and will warm up as per normal 18th man duties
thanks for that.

Hope she is lying to you... lol

It’ll do us a world of good if we can keep them
out for the first 20. If parra put a few try’s on us in the first 20 it could get ugly. I believe though and can’t wait to see the boys come out do the blocks. Let’s go NAPA.

I was underwhelmed with Napa's 2019 season. Lets hope he fires up this year and helped by the other front rowers.

If we get the $350k from forans compensation and as expected Okenbur gets delisted, both their monies combined would be a decent enough figure to throw at a decent goal-kicking winger who is in and out of first grade ATM like
Jamayne Isaako

We should be well in the market for someone mid-year when you factor in we would have had space before Foran and Smith got injured or this latest scandal.

But I think Isaako is pretty average and inconsistent and would hope we could secure someone better. Plus with Bird getting injured, he's likely to stay put.
