Select the Auckland 9s Squad

[subsbligh]

Surely there's a jersey there for Hodgo as a gimmick

 

[mitch222]

My squad would be

Andrew McCullough (c)
Carlin Anderson
Jai Arrow
Joe Boyce
Greg Eden
Herman Ese'ese
Salesi Funaki
Alex Glenn
Lachlan Maranta
Francis Molo
Anthony Milford
Kodi Nikorima
Joe Ofahengaue
Tom Opacic
James Roberts
Caleb Timu
Aaron Whitchurch
Darren Nicholls

Remember that there needs to be 12 of our top 25 and atleast one marquee player (which in my case would be Milford)

I guess these days we wouldn't care about him doing his hammy so I would be all for it

 

[Morkel]

What are the on-field "positions", or are they kind of irrelevant? Do you have a hooker, maybe a left, middle & right forward, two halves, left & right outside back, and a fullback?

 

[Super Freak]

Let's get Lockyer.

Tell him to use his famous left foot kick and see if anyone can beat Roberts in a race for the ball.

Hooker

Five Eighth/Fullback

Yeah there you go. Or one half, two forwards and two centres who can also be a middle forward?

Ahh, I see what you did there. Play the Auckland 10's while everyone else is playing 9's and you're guaranteed an overlap!

Nice Suicide Squad promotion in there!

 

[Wolfie]

I'm Predicting Boyd, Thaiday, Glenn and Milf will all be in the Nines squad. No Nikorima though.

Based on?

 

[Wolfie]

I have a gut feeling :takdir:

Not too sure about Glenn though!

 

[Mitch06]

Kodi will rip it up this year!

 

[Marty Deutschmann]

I think both milf and kodi will kill it
Better than lest year. I think they were out of their depth (milf was)
But now. .
He's ready. Plus bennett will get his halves to both work on their kicking game over the pre.
Especially their long kicking game. (Placement kicks, hunt has no issue with clearing kicks or medium placement kicks)
It'll be a part of hunts next stage of development. He'll have learnt a lot from the grand final loss. His tactics of trying to wind down the clock with still 20 to go was a mistake. Against any team... let alone a qld team featuring Thurston.
From now on it'll be, don't change what has worked all year, continue applying pressure and trying to score points from any part of the field
