Our bench looks really weak with NAS and Glasby out and Tohu moving to 5/8.

Be great to see that Curtis Scott play again. And I'm calling it early, if Welch plays, I reckon he'll play his best game to date.

I almost think we're asking too much of Tohu playing at 6. The last game his lack of speed let the tigers backs run around him. He does his best but you can't expect him to be amazing at everything. I think the halves need to have a bit of pace to be able to burst through holes if need be and get passes away to support players. I think Hampton would be OK at 6 if we used him predominantly as a running half. His defence has really improved in recent games so I'm hoping he wouldn't be too much of a liability in that area as he has been in the past.
I completely trust Bellyache but am just a bit nervous after what happened last week.

The team is much more balanced when we have Tohu in the second row as well. Wont have to worry about it tonight because it looks like Green will play. Munster's ankle must be pretty bad if he's going to miss his 3rd game in a row. Hopefully he's back after the bye.

I think last week the team got into cruise mode expecting another easy finish. Be surprising if we're flat this week. Would be dissapointed if we lose too

Green in, Munster still out unfortunately. That siad better having one in than none and will push T out of the halves to do what he does best.

Feeling really uncomfortable with our bench... The only real impact we have is Kaufusi.
