So our mid-field changes yet again, we have not had the same mid-field start the whole season, despite all the players that have played there, all being fit, all season.
Finally Markwick gets a start!
Assume Macilai injured? Robinson started with head issues didnt he, and took another last week....
Waa, Moulds, Kite
Neville, Uluiviti
Faleafa, Maich, Pryor
Markwick, Breen
Hawkins, Dunn
Lama, Alaimona, HylandWright, Sililota, Talease, Larsen, Ram, MacLeod, Tua, Lawebuka

Not the quickest backline....our pack seems to be able to chop and change and maintain a decent quality but same can't be said for the backs. Cant see this backline getting the penetration we need...Alaimalo needs to back himself and be involved, he and breen are our 2 weapons in the backs.

The last act of our season. Some signs of improvement after last year but in the two games that mattered vs BOP, Southland we didn't front. Harbour have been good this season so we will have our work cut out.
We have lots of young talent and have had injuries to burn this year so whatever happens we should have a better showing next year. However, that depends on continuing improvements in intensity (club rugby?), fitness, decision making and set piece. I wonder what will come out of the end of year review? Certainly a lot to talk about.
