No way is Philips in front of Perret, the guy is terrible under the highball. Perret is our most in-form back this year.

Bmoz
Rona
Morris
Hoppa
Perret

That is a solid defensive backline.

I've been a big critic of Perrett for 2 years now, however I'm starting to believe Lafai was the problem, Perrett has been our best back all year, he cannot be dropped!

B Morris is coming back from major Knee problems having missed 3/4 of the season, I don't think they'll risk him a FB this year...

I cannot split Holland and Hoppa... If we don't have Holland we will miss his goal kicking.

It will, and we will have no kicker again unfortunately. Been loving the 6 point every time.
He has defended well also.

We need to sign Ethan Lowe for goal kicking. I like Holland and see a lot of improvement in him, but he's not in our best 5 backs until the Morris boys retire.

Think your all wrong
1. Hoppa
2. Rona
3. Jmoz
4. Holland
5. B Moz

Both Phillips and Perrett miss out with the emergence of Holland. Goal Kicking is crucial
Yeah _G-Dog_ I'd go for this line up. To me it looks like the best we could put

Yeah _G-Dog_, if they're all fit I think you've put together the best combination we could field. IMO they will fire up in both attack and defence.

The only problem I see is Des Hasler and Sam Perrett. The would be harder to separate than Siamese twins.

The big issue is goal kicking, and Holland's place.

Last year RTS played a roaming winger role, and Bennet has Oates running lines in-field like a fullback and second rower.

I think we could put Morris on the wing, and allow him to play a roaming role like this.

I can't see Des doing this though, and i also can't see him dropping Perret.

In my Opinion, Holland needs to be there. And id go with

1 - Hoppa
2 - Rona
3 - Holland
4 - Jmoz
5 -Bmoz

These Morris guys play so well together.

Perrett has been outstanding this year, but unfortunatley we need a Goal kicker of his calibre. He is not bad at all anyway. With this backline I think we could improve our cjances. Speed, Defense and all good under the highball.

Jeez someone said PERRET is our best back lol if that's true we are bloody struggling. He wouldn't make any other first grade side.

Perrett - Career best form so won't be dropped.
JMoz - won't be dropped
Rona - won't be dropped.
Hoppa - won't be dropped if available.

The only spot available is the one that Holland/Phillips/Stanley is in, and that spot gets filled by BMoz when fully fit.

Rona is becoming useless on the wing. Jmoz doesn't pass the ball

dont know what to do with holland but we need a goal kicker.

Id like both Mozzes on the same side and Rona with Perrett on the other with Hopoate at the back. Perrett might go fine at centre. Or do you have a mozz on each side so you always have a very good defender on each side? Hmmm

Def Hopoate at the back, and when Hop is out Perrett at FB and Phillips on the wing.

Thats no disrepect for Holland though, he has shown promise and has a long way to go. He has only played single digits FG games. His goal kicking is welcome for sure, but apart from goals he isnt yet better than the others.

lets hope MBye has been practicing goalkicking a lot. Holland will be in and out of the side all year with one injury or another no doubt.

1. Bmozzle
2. Rona
3. Jmozzle
4. Hopoate
5. Seasoned Veteran Perret

OR to ease Brett back shift him to the wing and Perret goes to fullback.

OR when Brett comes back give Perret and Hoppa sundays off

Sunday Backline :p

1. Phillips/Abbey
2. Rona
3. Jmoz
4. Holland
5. Bmoz

I would keep Holland. Great kicker with plenty of heart, just what the team needs!

It needs to happen. The twins need to be side by side again. Bmoz has been out too long to come into FB and Perret is simply too safe and in form to drop. Id have Hoppa at FB but with his absenses on Sundays, believe he can't just slot in and out of FB. Holland is also a hard toss up because of his kicking skills.
