Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3259865, member: 9052"] Don't really see the point in moving Haas to lock... he's already the big minute forward so it's not really changing anything. I don't think it really changes anything to just put Flegler at 13 and bring Asiata onto the bench as a direct replacement. 1 Isaako 2 Oates 3 Herbie 4 Arthars 5 Coates 6 Milf 7 Gamble 8 Lodge 9 Turpin 10 Haas 11 Riki 12 TPJ (C) 13 Flegler 14 Levi 15 Asiata 16 Bullemor 17 Kennedy I'm making minimal changes to the team. We've played well over the last few weeks so the players should be rewarded and allowed to build up some consistency. There's also a lot of players still getting used to the consistency of playing in the same positions and with the same players week in and week out. I'm sure there will be calls to drop Coates and Levi, move Herbie to fullback, bring in Piakura, etc. but that is ridiculously reactive when the team is playing decent football that would otherwise beat most of the bottom 8. Leave Piakura in ISC to continue to develop. We need a middle forward so it wouldn't make sense to bring a second rower in for the middle that we lost. This is the opportunity to see if Asiata can make it. Flegler out there with Lodge and Haas to start and then sub him off for Asiata before he becomes a liability. Returns later on as part of the prop rotation. Hopefully Asiata can build up to be the starting lock by the end of the year, because to be honest I'm not all that keen to see us finishing games with Flegler in the middle rotation. It would need to be a massive turn of form for me to have trust in Flegler to not **** up in the dying minutes of the game. [/QUOTE]
