I think Arrow should be lock tbh. I like Mcguires work rate, but i think Arrow has the offloads in his game to be a lot more dangerous. I think he has flown under the radar a bit with the form of Herman and Pangai, but i think he has been equally as good, just not as spectacular.

Yeah same boat for me (Although I didn't watch the game last night, the stats sort of indicate that McGuire was playing more as a prop than a lock anyway, 160 metres, 3 passes, 0 offloads.)

I think we need to try something different, Sims isn't really doing enough as a starter for me, he barely cracked 50 metres last night, and it's not the first time he's made little impact. I also think the time has come to introduce TPJ to the starting line-up, Thaiday has been fine as a starter this season, but he's not setting the world on fire, I feel he could have an equal impact if he's in the role that Glenn is in right now (First man off the bench, play ~50 minutes anyway)

8. McGuire
9. McCullough
10. Blair
11. Pangai Jr
12. Gillett
13. Arrow

14. Nikorima
15. Thaiday
16. Ese'ese
17. Sims

Yeah, let's lose the impact TPJ provides by putting him in the starting side.

Right? As if you'd want to put your best 13 players in the starting side.. Why do that when you can have people under performing starting that you can blow an interchange on 20 minutes in?..

I can't see how giving Pangai more minutes and opportunity is going to hurt us as a team, and you could make an argument that Sims is more suited to provide that "aggressive bench prop" role anyway. We're at the stage where it wouldn't hurt to try a thing or two to freshen up the team, if it doesn't work we can always revert the changes, but there's absolutely no doubt in my mind that Pangai needs to be starting sooner rather than later, the only questions he'd have to answer are defensive workload & impact over an extended period.

But I'd rather give him and Arrow an opportunity to at least see if they're up to it, you know? Sometimes all these guys need is a bit of faith shown in them and they'll blossom, look at someone like Jake Trbojevic, he got given an opportunity early in his career to start and play big minutes and he absolutely thrived.. I can only hope we give our stars of the future the same chance, sooner rather than later..

See where your coming from, and I'd be tempted to bench Sims this week, more as a wake up call for him then anything after that piss weak fucking tackle on Reynolds. Ese'Ese would be my starter, but temorarily I'd think as don't think he's ready to spend a season starting.

As for TPJ starting he's been fine in the middle defensively, but him defending on the left is in no way a good idea cosnidering our current issues.

Have Thaiday and Glenn really been "good" defensively on the left though? I haven't got the stats with me, but it feels like they've been very underwhelming at times defensively this year.

If that is indeed the case, bringing in someone else wouldn't be the worst idea, even if he isn't the best defensive player in the world

Hopefully he'll be able to part the opposition defence like he did the Red Sea.

Is Moses really the controlling, game managing half we require ?

He seems a bit erratic to me
