I can't see Frisby on the bench if both Lucas and Genia are fit. My backline would be the one that started the semi but with Taps at 12 and then have a bench of... 20- Lucas 21- Harris 22- F'Sautia (who may replaced Shipperely eventually)

Gilly isn't up to it physically at international level yet. Hooper provides more ball running impact, which is what you'd want off the bench.

Even a return at club rugby would be great for Hynsey, I really hope he plays again.

Sunnybank getting their Super Rugby players back when they are starting to hit form. This week against Easts will be a belter.

Will be interesting to see which Reds players we will see in the coming weeks. Sunnybank: Holmes, Wallace-Harrison Easts: Buttler University: Morahan, Harris (injured?) GPS: Frisby Souths: Robinson Brothers: Shipperely (unless he is being rested for the Wallabies). I think everyone else is...

I wouldn't say Fainga'a just does OK for Queensland. Personally I think he is very underrated and his work often goes unoticed. We know his defensive abilities, but he attacks the ruck like an openside, and is often very affective at it. His attack has also improved (still not very great though...

Read what I said again, I wasnt saying anything about Quirk. My point was that Samo isn't good enough to be in the Reds 22 when everyone is fully fit. Fotu Auelua would of been the better selection.

Yes but before he was injured he was ahead of him. For a good month Samo was running around in Premier Grade. And yes Quirk plays 8 I just think this selection is beyond stupid.

Samo is behind Ed Quirk in the Reds backrow pecking order, how the shit does he get picked. Even a Auelua, Fardy (as a 6) or Jones would of sufficed.

SAMO!? Are they fucking high? And no Shipperely or Holmes..... what a joke.

Bullrush what planet are you on?

That backrow of Kankowski, Daniel and Coetzee along with Alberts is just insane. Their ball skills in attack is the best in the competition.

I actually thought Frisby went alright. But what was Link thinking bring him on an moving Genia to fly half, that was just plain fucking stupid. But The Sharks were the better side by a mile, they deserved to win. I'm backing them to beat the Stormers after that.

Easts have been doing this in recent weeks with Parraka and UJ returning from u20's, coming off the bench just after halftime.

He's played the last two games, check the Highlanders thread if you want his background or whatever.

1. Greg Holmes 2. Saia Fainga'a 3. James Slipper 4. Rob Simmons 5. Adam Wallace-Harrison (vc) 6. Jake Schatz 7. Liam Gill 8. Scott Higginbotham 9. Will Genia (c) 10. Ben Lucas 11. Digby Ioane 12. Mike Harris 13. Anthony Fainga'a 14. Dom Shipperley 15. Luke Morahan 16. James Hanson 17. Ben Daley...

Try of the Year: Cipriani's that was set up by Gerrard (cannot remember who it was against) Rookie: Neville Gareth Delve should pick up the rest of the awards.

Alberts at lock? Have they played him there much lately? Very very strong pack though.

Tom Carter would fit right in at Brothers

I honestly think a Reds vs Crusaders final is a possibility. Crusaders are more dominant than the Bulls, especially at home, whilst QLD are on a roll and the Sharks aren't the same playing away from Durban. Then as Qwerty said, Stormers are only winning by small margins against low sides, and...
