| I would swap Brown for Bowden, Josh has never looked committed to me since his return and he certainly doesn't run with the same conviction he did prior to his injury, which although possibly understandable, leaves him behind Brown in the pecking order in my mind. I think Swift will get the nod on the wing over Faraimo as he is the only back we have with something like genuine pace. Must admit I cannot call this one; they have added so talent to what was already a decent squad and I am just hoping that it is too early in the season for them to have gelled as a unit and we can get the win. Looking forward to seeing Josh Reynolds and Jake Connor in the same team, the playbook gets ripped up and cast aside with those two; off the cuff, instinctive performers who can mesmerise the best of defences.

I really wouldn't be surprised if Jude Ferreira has over taken Scott in the pecking order by the end of the season.'"
not a chance

| Fonua seems like one of them players who struggles with fitness and isnt just there yet which is why he was almost getting used like a forward at times against Hudds - give it two or three games and he'll be on fire and back to his best imo - Faraimo is a poor mans Fonua imo

| I was happy with what Fonua did tbh. Yes he made a hash of that kick which could have easily cost us a try, but apart from that he did some good work. Did some hard yards with the ball and didn't get out of shape defensively. Not to mention his pass during that play on half time. I also saw in some stats that he was 3rd for distance covered during the game. Behind Houghton and Sneyd. So he isn't shirking. He's getting about the pitch and putting the work in which is great to see when he looked so unfit last year.
Faraimo will get a chance at some point and it's up to him to take it when it comes. But I thought both wingers performed well and I wouldn't fix it if it isn't broken.

| Fonua certianly didn't look unfit to me, also saw the stat that he was 3rd in the list for distance covered. Thought he had a solid game, definatley nothing to nit pick over after a good result.
