Lock - who and why?

[pjayz]

I reckon, round One will see:
8. Jake
9. Api/Parcell
10. Myles
11. Burther/Brown
12. Symonds
13. Kapow

I hear Burther is big...

Kapow because he plays lock and he goes Kapow.

 

[Hitman]

11. Lewis Brown
12. Martin Taupau
13. Jamie Buhrer

Jamie Buhrer with the 13 because I feel the Lock should be able to roam and have a pass in his game - similar to how Glenn Stewart played for us.

8. Jake
9. Parcell
10. Myles
11. Buhrer
12. Mateo
13. Taupau

Gifty was a different type of player though. The lock is generally in the middle of the field with the props and you 11 & 12 are edge players. Gifty would be lock but play predominantly right side. So basically your edge players need to have that passing game and be good hole runners.

I would have Kapow and Mateo change each other out as they both provide X factor and more so draw the defence towards them. If one or both are having a good game you can drop game time for Brown or Buhrer.

Add 4 props of Myles, Jake, BJ and Starling and we are set.

The last bench spot can be flexible for Hooker/prop/second rower
