General Your 2025 team

[JustLikeStartingOver]

Martin is 2nd in the comp in try assists per game, Johnson is 21st. And TMM is far and away the better defender at this stage.

Talk about choosing beggers that we are going to find a better half just lying around, or Chanel will outperform that, and I like CHT, but he is the clear backup IMO.

[Christchurch_Warrior]

I have always wondered whether Berry would make a good fullback. Thoughts?

Would have him over Charnze tbh

 

[Aman 2.0]

Unless Metcalf goes super saiyan 6 next season we are absolutely fucked.

We have no one else.

Controversial topic with Jett Cleary.
Hopefully he is ready but I haven't seen enough to be a good judge

lol - kosi... who is this pseud?

 

[gambler03]

bit of a dream scenario but this would be elite...

1. Stevenson*
2. DWZ
3. CNK
4. Leiataua
5. RTS
6. Metcalf
7. Ilias*

8. Thompson*
9. Clarke
10. Barnett
11. Laban
12. Halasima
13. JFH

14. Egan
15. Niukore
16. Capewell
17. Sifakula

This most likely won't happen., and it annoys me i can't find a spot for Taine, if we couldn't get Ilias or Stevenson I would like to see Taine be our 1 or 7, gives me hughes vibes.

I don't see Dylan Walker returning, at i'm not so sure with Tohu atm, he would take Laban's spot if playing and capewell to start at second row.

Also, thoughts around Clarke to start at 9 take the sting out the opposing pack

 

[Ref]

Revised once again and no dreaming who we might get.

Tuaupiki
Pasikala
Berry
Ali
MGT
Metcalf
TMM
JFH
Egan
Barnett
Sifakula
Halasima
Capewell

Clark
Ale
Niukore
Laban

Reality vs Dreams.

Unfortunately we're stuck with most of the 2024 team. So it's reality for me... so sad..

 

[Bluecat]

My dream team?
1 Someone young, fast, with lots of attacking flair and good defence. Not RTS
2 See 1
3 Berry.
4 Pompey or MGC or Leaiatua. Not RTS
5 See 1
6 See 1
7 See 1
8-17 The usual suspects plus JFH and a sprinkle of the new guys getting game time on rotation. Not RTS

Reality says as per regenerated borg above
1-17 just the usual suspects plus JFH. Including RTS

 

[Noitall]

My team to start the season next year with depth players would be
1. RTS (Tuaupiki, CNK)
2.DWZ (Pasikala)
3.CNK (Berry)
4.Pompey (Leiataua)
5.MGT (Montoya)
6. Metcalf (CHT)
7. TMM (Tuaupiki, Metcalf)
8.JFH (Ale, Sifakula)
9. Egan (Lussick, Roache)
10. Barnett (Tohu, Ford)
11. Capewell (Laban, Halasima)
12. Niukore (Ford, Eddie Ieremia Toeava)
13. Ale (Sifakula, Going)

14. Clark (don’t think Walker will be here?, CHT)
15. Tohu
16. Using these two spots for continuing to blood young guys and give them game time. Rotating Zyon Maiu’u, Sifakula, Halasima, Eddie Ieremia Toeava, TSS,


That team has the depth player or younger players coming through ready to leapfrog their experienced teammates at any time

[run_it_str8_again]

Thats my line of thinking too. We need a genuine 13 and then CHT can play the role that Walker played last year.

Can Ale be a good 13? Or CNK? Or?

 

[MrFrankWhite]

Can Ale be a good 13? Or CNK? Or?

With Clark coming, CHT is probably depth. Also Id rather a 13 that ran hard, tackled hard, has an offload and a quick ptb.

 

[Makasene]

I see the Eels are moving Gutherson to 13.

I suggested some time ago and ask again - why not RTS to 13?

Middle of the field, plenty of ball. Make use of his yardage. It genuinely interests me.
