I love yarts, although this one is 100% based on what we have available (not injured) at the moment . This should, in my opinion, greatly impact our forward durability and variety in games.
8. Jake Trbojevic
9. Manese Fainu
10. Martin Taupau
11. Kelepi Tanginoa
12. Shaun Lane
13. Joel Thompson (reasons below)
14. Trent Hodkinson
15. Addin Fonua-Blake
16. Taniela Paseka
17. Frank Winterstein (depth dies here)
- Variety!!
- More robust and versatile middle, problem with Trbo at lock is that he tires with his workload and is dumbed down in attack as a result, also becoming easy to shift around in defence as he grows fatigued, making our middle very vulnerable late in games as observed. Thompson is tough, experienced, very fit and durable.
- More bench prop impact with Trbo and Taupau, AFB and Paseka now interchanging (stronger and more experienced than Taupau and AFB interchanging with Tanginoa and Paseka)
- We'd have genuine reason to have Frank Winterstein on the bench, as he can give Tanginoa a break when Taupau/Trbo enter their second stints and he begins to tire.
- Tanginoa deserves promotion and his leg speed, late footwork, strength, good defence and decisiveness make him absolutely perfect to be a strong hole running back-rower eg. Frizell, Cordner.
In my opinion this would be a huge improvement, let's see if it truly is flaw-proof with the analysis from you lot
