It was painful watching the replay.

Wasn't directly addressed to u so my bad, but he's clearly the best option at full-back currently and I don't see him being a safe choice as a negative thing, he's also proved himself as an attacking threat in multiple test matches last year including against the All Blacks. Wright is a better...

Kellaway ran some great lines in attack. Where the fuck is this hate coming from. Not sure if you all are aware but our full-back range isn't that big!

Yes

Well then Carter better learn how to kick if he's going to start with Tate, no other player in that backline kicks. Mind you, Hodge had kicking duty over Carter for the rebels and from what i saw was pretty consistent.

Are you assuming Carter is going to start or play off the bench in the World Cup?

Feel free to provide another alternative bud but as far as I'm aware you can't.

Right because the other plays had a stellar performance against SA. Whether you like it or not, his utility is something that IMO forces him into the 33. Excluding Kellaway (assuming he is starting) what other player can do what Hodge does? You COULD argue Petia BUT if our 10 or 12 gets injured...

He's consistently alright in the centers, reliable at full-back. Okay at wing. Not sure about fly-half but i would expect a pretty ordinary but consistent playstyle.

Rodwell, I think. I actually don't mind him playing at 10, he's incredibly talented and gets the ball a lot more than at full-back. Farr-Jones has been able to hold his own at full-back as well.

McEwen and Ata have been injured for the past 2 games, and Humphries has been dropped to 2nds.

I Hope Newington prove me wrong but can't see them beating Shore after recent performances. With a full-strength team, I'd tip new over shore though. I haven't seen the team list yet but if it's the same as last week then i'm still going to tip Shore.

what's that mate?

Joeys + 7 Kings +20 Shore +3

If Eddie has mentioned him as a utility player why are you assuming he hasn't been training in both the backrow and the backline? + He is definitely capable of playing against lower-tier nations.

It's baffling how these journalists continue to ask the same generic questions. They could not pretend to seem interested

Marky Mark (Nawaqanitawase) still has that creativity with him, you can see it in his play.

I'd actually swap Petia and Kellaway, i think Kellaway offers more in defense at 13 than Petia, and Petia will provide a more electric attack at full-back than Kellaway.

No chance Newington beat Shore at Northbridge this weekend. There will be a low Newington attendance, and they will continue to rely on individual talent (which we all know will not win games). Harsh reality but it's the truth.
