Could we really see Brough, Jeffries, Newton, Obst and Latu all make a starting 17? I just can't see it.
we could but i hope we dont! hope kear makes a decision between obst and latu and doesn't try fiiting players in. as much as latu can do a job short term in theback row i dont want it to be something we do unless we have no genuine back row options. i must admit i wouldn't fancy the decison but thats how he earns his corn.
as for the team lot pick themselves but i would be going with a big bench, many above look too lightweight for me. i would expect a lot to be up the middle with the conditions and the fact its the first game. i'd assume we will try play percentages, keep our sets tight and kick well for field position. as such we want some beef on there imo
