I also think Connor is a better half back than either of the two selected and could offer that bit of the unexpected if that`s why Tomkins has been put in there.
And I might have gone for Percival over Gildart.
Tomkins has been put in the halves to run the games and take us around the field. This isn’t the kid who’d play with a ball of his own years ago, he’s developed in to an organiser and a game manager. He’s had to do that because injuries have taken his pace and he’s been superb in the role for us this season. He may have been playing at full back for Wigan most of the time but he was pulling the strings at all times for us regardless of position.
I’m not down on the line up at all. I think it’s attacking and well balanced and will cause the Kiwis plenty of problems.
