Rugby League World Cup - Toa Samoa

[Nate DAWG]

Well done to to Tim Lafai and Marty Taupau for making the Samoan train on squad. If Inu and Kasiano dont make the NZ final squad they may be named for Samoa as well.
More players will be added, I expect Steve Matai, Jorge Taufua, Joseph Leilua, Sam Tagataese, Jeff Lima, Roy Asotasi, David Fa'alogo, Ben Te'o, Frank Paul Nuuausala and maybe SBW! Also Roger Tuivasa if not named for NZ!
Canterbury Bulldogs: Tim Lafai, Martin Taupau
Wests Tigers: Ava Seumanafagai, Tim Simona, Masada Iosefa, Sauaso Sue, David Nofoaluma, Eddy Pettybourne
St George Illawarra Dragons: Daniel Vidot, Leeson Ah Mau
New Zealand Warriors: Pita Godinet, Carlos Tuimavave, Suaia Matagi, Mason Lino
Canberra Raiders: Anthony Milford, Sami Sauiluma
North Queensland Cowboys: Antonio Winterstein, Kalifa Faifailoa, Wayne Ulugia
Brisbane Broncos: Dunamis Lui, Lama Tasi
Gold Coast Titans: Mark Ioane
Parramatta Eels: Ben Roberts, Reni Maitua, Ken Sio
Penrith Panthers: Mose Masoe

Decent plauers, TBH. Halves are a bit meh but forwards and backline looks good.

Your spot on with halves, possibly Milford or Godinet at 7 and Reni at 6. Pack should be strong enough to beat France in the group stage.

ben roberts? wouldn't they be better off with say.. a rock?

Just reading the draw on wiki....

I know they want to expand the game internationally, but the group stages really are a farce, and probably unneccessarily complicated.

I think Inu, Kasiano and SBW will be in the Kiwi squad for sure. Samoa and Tonga are starting to build their teams up nicely, a few more years should see them both competing well.

Hope they play better than the game against Tonga at Penriff earlier this year ,... they got hammered....

They might need a few 100 more security guards the next time they meet =P
