[QUOTE="Kooly87, post: 3110423, member: 9326"] Is the Bench honestly something that can be helped at this stage? If Glenn is fit, it'll be: Macca Flegler Kennedy Isaako If Glenn isn't passed fit, presumably TPJ shifts to an edge, Flegler starts, and then another middle would need to come in, presumably Hopoate. The Bench in the first scenario is fine considering we're already down two regular middle Forwards in Lodge and Offa. The Bench in the second scenario is obviously worse, but when you take 3 regular, big bodied middle Forwards (TPJ shifts to an edge) off most clubs I'd say most Benches would start to look pretty thin. I also really don't see the fuss about playing Isaako and not having another Forward given the makeup of our Forward Pack. Currently you have Haas who can play huge (60-65) minutes and only needs a player to cover at most 20 minutes for him - so Kennedy ticks that box fine. TPJ needs a little more rest (maybe 50-55 minutes) so Flegler can cover his additional minutes. Both edge Backrowers in Glenn and Fifita both play 80 minutes, so no issue there. Then you have Carrigan at Lock who has a massive motor and can probably punch out a full game or close to it (65-80 minutes) with Flegler making up any small difference. Basically it makes an additional Forward on the Bench obsolete and probably means its far more prudent for us to carry a spare Outside Back as coverage if we can. Isaako may not be ideal, but the strategy to only run two Forwards on the Bench isn't really a problem as I see it. [/QUOTE]
