I've gotta assume (hope) that if one 2nd rower goes down injuried he is first to fill in the gap. Where Leka and Vaimauga will probably stay as impact bench players. That way there is less shakeup on injury and we keep juniors.
But Laban is the one player I'm dying to see enter the 17. I really don't want to see him look anywhere else. Especially if he is only signed till 2026.
