TBH I don't think Halley would improve us. Certainly not on the wings as we've not giving any ball out wide

Ideally i`d drop sykes for crookes- might as well blood him since seasons gone, and drop sherrife for halley, put platt back in at fb, when tupou fit put him on bench and when solo back put him on bench for kopczak.

Team platt, halley, nero, crookes, tadulala, jefferies, deacs, lynch, newton, burgess, menzies, cook, morrison, tupou, scruton, langley, solomona.

That's spot on.

We could have Vainikolo on the wing but it really wouldn't matter, our wingers just aren't getting enough ball atm.

Although the wings aren't getting enough service in attack, that's no excuse for the poor defensive work that's come from Sheriffe. Yesterday especially, he was asleep half the time, although admittedly he wasn't alone in that.

A few times I heard people shout at him for a lack of "oomph" and looking like his head was elsewhere, and I struggled to disagree.

No doubt Sheriffe's strength is his pace and he needs some decent service to show that, but his weaknesses are definitely being shown up already.

He didn't look that fast when he was trying to catch Yeaman.

TBF he looked pacier than Ian van Bellen.
