Quote ="PAUL M"The only issue with your props is a lack of impact, King or Thacks would be in for me ahead of Maloney.
Also if starting with Lee at hoker is working well then I don't see the point of benching Berro, why not let him start the game at centre instead. Horne would come off the bench. We could bring on Horne at centre, move Berro to hooker and then take off Lee.
The other thing is whether or not to play Luauki at prop or backrow, he could be used in tandem with Manu playing either side of the ruck. Lots of options there tbh no matter which way we go.'"
Lauaki would be the impact prop for me with Manu as the impact 2nd row. 1 impact prop from 4 with the correct game plan should be more than enough, i'd rather we had Dowes and Cusack as grafters, Lauaki as impact and Radders as an offloading prop which he can do. Gives lots of variation in play that way.
Agree about giving Berro a run at centre, its where he was a true international for Oz and where he built his reputation.
