Completely agree, we have no depth, we'd be replacing like-for-like pretty much.I'm not an Elliot fan, but at the end of the day those isp boys arnt stepping up
Team not travelling good, but unfortunately no one is knocking the door down
And I can't see to many upgrades by dropping our fg players!
Nu brown might offer more in attack then jmk, maybe just maybe
Might not either, so I can't see anyone getting dropped
Agree with most of what you said.I would not do multiple changes or drop multiple players, as I believe everyone put in good effort, it was the organisation of the attack that was the problem. This problem stems from poor service from the 9, as we all saw the metres how forwards churned out meaning they laid a good platform.
Drop lichaa, put JMK in 9, then put cleeland or Lewis in 6. This will, I am sure, give better service and allow Foran to control the game better. As, with lichaa, we can see him barking out commands all the time, when it should be Foran.
Then bring in To'omaga on the bench instead of holland wasting a space. Have Jackson move to lock.
Defensively, I think we played really well. These changes I think will allow more organised attacked, and have key players (JMK, Jackson) playing in positions that might be better for them. Example, JMK is a good player, I just think he does not have enough experience in the 6 to give Foran the space he needs to organise a good attack. For example, with Frawley (I know a lot of you here dont like him) he got 1 try assist and 1 try against rooster and storm, with him our attack looked great (Imo) because he has a lot of experience there. However, his defence is a problem, otherwise I would slot him back into the 6, with JMK at 9 I think is a nice combo.
Tell me what you think
Fualalo,Montoya,jmk,Hopoate,If you could only make one change for next week, who would you leave out?
Nope I hate lichaa more and Elliot at least has a proper dig*Waits for the Elliott haters to come forward...
I'm expecting an avalanche

Thats the side I want to see but we wont...
I was originally torn on Martin or Fine, however Asepeli has impressed me a few times over the last 2 weeks, would make a good stop gap solution until we get more cap space.
As for the bench, Renouf and Ogden have done enough to warrant a shot.
I like that but I’d swap jmk and brown around1 mbye

I’m liking that as an alternative to what is happening at the moment. Love to get rid of Hoppa so maybe Holland to centre Smith to wing as another option. But neither of those are world beaters either. Something had to change.Lichaa because thats where the problems begin...
