if we had our full strength team?

With Sheck, O'Donnell and Aubusson returning, I would imagine that Arona would drop off for sure, and we would keep one of Napa, MLK or Liu for the bench prop role.

Guerra
Moa
Kennedy/Liu/Napa

The big question is...when Cordner comes back, do we drop another backrower like Guerra for him? Or do we go with a lighter forward pack, and drop our bench prop Kennedy/Liu/Napa?

I'd say we drop Napa due to inexperience, probably Liu for that matter too.

When Cordner comes back I'd have to say Guerra is gone and Aubusson on the bench.

I think Napa has to go if we get those players back due to the 2nd tier salary cap anyway, like earlier in this year.. isn't that right?

Because only Cordner out of our top 25 would be missing therefore we'd have to play Liu/Kennedy/Arona/Langi instead

Isn't that right? it happened after the 2nd Doggies game earlier this year

Napa is free to play whenever as a result of the release of Lama Tasi to the Broncos.

I'd love Napa to play off the bench. Send him on for 10 minutes to whack Watmough and Catai ala Burgess/Graham/Gallen.
