What's our best 17 for next season? : Thu Nov 17, 2016 5:32 pm  

I like the squad that's been assembled for the 2017 season, we may have to look at bringing in a few SL quality players if we reach the Super 8s. Best thing about the team is that we've got some big humans in it and should have a big pack.

My first 17 would be:

Kear
Dixon
Hellewell
Api
Williams
Barthau
Sammut
Spencer
Cunningham
Evans
Pitts
Garside
Gee

Subs
Lovell
Ioane
Ackers
Battye

1. Dixon
2. Kear
3. Purtell
4. Hellewell
5. Williams
6. Sammut
7. Barthau
8. Battye
9. Ackers
10.Spencer
11.Harrison
12.Garside
13.Pewhairangi

14.Evans
15.Ioane
16.Pitts
17.Cunningham

Dixon is more of a potent threat from full back imo.
And Pewhairangi at 13 would give us so many options in attack.

But i like the idea of api going to 13. I think the thing it highlights is the potential flexibility and strength in the squad. i am not sure about Purcell - experienced but too slow?
