Waratahs 2025

Either or... If both on the field I think they just have a role and number doesn't matter too much. Usefull to have a guy like FLW (Fergus Lee-Warner) (Fergus Lee-Warner) on the bench to cover a lot. I'm a fan of Sinclair starting and being the steady head in the middle and let Amatosero keep developing and being the big body with hopefully Bell and Tupou both on the field.
Yes - could play left and right like they do in France - might be irrelevant now, if he not joining though.

Really excited that Talatiana has been picked up, looks to be a great talent.

I know it's a stereotype for Waratahs buuuut that squad looks great. Actually really excited about the depth:
- A few older, really talented Wallabies in Kellaway, Porecki, Leota, Tupou, Gordon.
- Some younger Wallabies who are already great but will get better: Sua'al'i'i, Kailea, Foketi, Lancaster, Gamble and Edmed with his NPC ego boost
- Some really young players who are probably bit too green for this season but are seriously promising: Talatiana, Bowen, Barrett, O'Donnell, Grant


Cool stuff. Hope you go well.

I hope Dan McKeller doesn't stoop to Joe Schmidt's level by just handing Sua'alii a Tahs jersey without him earning it first.

This isn't the Wallabies mate, earn your keep in the Shute Shield and if you play your cards right you can get a run in the back half of the season.

Talatiana the dark horse breakout player for mine.

Was awesome at the u20's but got sidelined with injury last season.

What's the back 5 going to be for the 'Tahs? 13. Sua'ali'i 11/14: Kellaway/Lancaster 15. Lancaster

Weirdly skinny in the back 3 and backrow.

Jorgensen at 15 probably, Reilly and Creighton as the main coverage for wing and fullback respectively.

Anyone agree or disagree? Who's most likely to fill the other spot in the 2nd row?

Not a bad lineup at all.

The cynic in me says either Randwick or Easts will benefit.

He is an Eastwood Junior so he should go to Eastwood!!!

Hook, line and sinker.
