We look a much weaker team than when we played them in the GF. No Smith, Vunivalu, Lee, Finucane, Kafusi. Leadership significantly reduced and its on their turf. Fingers crossed we pull something out of the hat for the W, but am expecting an L.

Jennings and R. Smith on the right again. Not impressed.
We have conceded 6 tries this season, 5 of them down the right. Three due to poor positioning and two due to not effectively managing (or indeed competing for) a high kick.

Dean Ieremia is on the reserves list; I'd be more than happy to risk giving him or Hynes a shot in front of Jennings.
We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately

Wouldn’t shock me if Ieremia debuts but could also see Jennings getting a shot at redeeming himself.

I can’t remember the last time Felise didn’t play (non origin period). Be interesting to see if there’s better communication with him not there.

Eisenhuth is a pretty trust worthy player but the cupboard is pretty bare when we’re starting him on an edge.

Explains why Nicho has been so happy the last few days and wasn’t named in the Falcons squad

Does that mean Nicho takes over the goal kicking too?
