Our forward pack is absolutely dominating the opposition. The centres and wingers are doing a lot of tough hit ups as well. This is giving the time and room for fainu, Anderson, wright, cust and co to do their creative damage.
The 10 Faatui just keeps cranking out the metres game after game. No frills just big minutes and big work rate. The 8 Tarrant as someone has mentioned is as tough as they come. He is the enforcer and leader of the pack, takes the oppositions biggest hardest shots in attack which takes the pressure of the rest of the team, then gives out his own punishment in defence. The usuall lock 13 and captain Jesse Martin is similar to Tarrant. These 3 guys have a big work ethic and simply wear the opposing pack down.
The best part is that some of these boys still have 1-2 years in the U20's.
The following are 19 and have one more year: 9 Fainu, 8 Tarrant, 11 Andrews, 3 Funa, 14 cust, 20 Polselli, 5 Marbaani, 7 Priest, 13 Olakautu, 17 Tuivati.
18 and two more years: 4 Kiaoa, 2 Smalley, 19 Titmuss, 18 Tepu-Smith, 23 Fenn, 16 Weatherall.
Plenty of young talent coming through, keeping them all is the problem.
