Message: [QUOTE="Unbreakable, post: 2791986, member: 8290"] I actually like the idea of Ofahengaue in the starting line-up. As it's been mentioned, he's not exactly a big hitter in defence which is probably his biggest weakness, but what he can do is play relatively long stints and make 10+ metres per run, which is precisely what we need from our 3rd forward if the other 2 starters are McGuire & Blair, who are more than capable of doing the dirty work defensively with McCullough at the start of the game. I rate Ofahengaue as a similar prospect to Arrow, I think Jai probably has the advantage of being a better defender, but Ofahengaue is a bigger body who has more experience in the NRL and has been waiting for a proper opportunity a little longer, I'm excited at the prospect honestly, can't wait to see how it pans out if he does start. Another advantage of starting Ofahengaue is that it allows us to play our 2 impact props off the bench in short stints, this is what I would call the "likely" 17 if this comes to fruition. 1.
