Chilla Wilson (44)
Probably a very interesting, & very close came coming up, even with Ben O'Keeffe refering it.
In the overall forward packs, an even batttle. Alex Hodgman, Richie Asiata, & Massimo De Lutiis will out perform Marley Pearce, Nic Dolly, & Tom Robertson for front row domination of the scrums. With the replacements, again Josh Nasser, George Blake, & Jeffery Toomaga-Allen will be too strong for Tom Horton, Ryan Coxon, & Atu Moli,.The Reds will be looking forward to this scrummaging advantage to give them penalties in the latter 30 minutes of the game, as happened against the Highlanders a week ago.
The locks will even each other out, with Lukhan Salakaia-Loto, Ryan Smith matching it with Jeremy Williams & Darcy Swain. Smith should'nt be underestimated.
For the back row, with Harry Wilson being rested, & Mc Reight recovering from an AC joint injury, the Force have an advantage there over the Reds, with Will Harris, Carlo Tizzano, & Nick Champion de Crespigny outplaying Seru Uru, John Bryant & Joe Brial.
In the back line, I see Kalani Thomas being an energizer bunny when playing against Nic Wight. Furthermore, with wet conditions expected, this should suit Red's flyhalf Tom Lynagh directing his troops around the field with more versality than Ben Donaldson who is more a running line breaker type.
For the centres, Hunter Paisami & Filipo Daugunu will outgun the consistant Hamish Stewart, & Sio Tomkinson. althought wet weather could neutrlize this advantage to some degree.
I would rate the Force back three of Dylan Pietsch, , Harry Potter, & Mac Grealy a more dangerous combination for try scoring than Tim Ryan, Lachie Anderson, & Heremaia Murray, although the Junk Yard Dog is overdue a breakout game after his metiorotic rise as a novice last year.
Owing to wet weather conditions suiting the Reds 9,10, &12 more than their opposite numbers, combined with the smarts of the local coaching team, and home ground advantage, the Reds should start as favourites to win this game.
