Hurricane! :gun:

 

Nah - I reckon you're perfect for making a starring cameo appearance from the bench.

 

This week if Norffs can get their line-ups in.

 

I don't dislike the idea of Rego on the wing at all. Rego didn't go that much better in the Regional tournament than Escath, but Escath had the significantly superior club season. That's why I've made the substitution orders such that if Escath is shunting it, he gets bumped to the bench.

Norths have a superior team to us, generally speaking, which is why I think we need to have something that will allow us to break down their defence. Escath is much more likely to get a line break than anyone else. And when he breaks, he's hard to stop. A risk/reward decision for my mind.

 

When I saw that I thought it might've been some Kiwi variant on the old school A-O 'numbering' system.

Then I felt a bit dumb

 

Yeah, Torres 10 etc would be much better
