I need Samoa to pull off the upset over Tonga.
I think Samoa will win.

If the Roosters coaching staff think he's better than Butcher Bros, Hutch & Sitilli then he'll jump ahead of them.Originally posted by RoosterBooster View Post
By now I would have thought that Egan Butcher would be playing in the backrow with Crighton because Egan is a big bloke who was a 5/8 so he does have ball skills but he really hasnt been given a crack instead Robbo went with Nat so Im not sure what Robbo looks for but it could be a few yars before we see Wong in the backrow.
I think Wong will have to do the Robbo apprenticeship & have to play in the middle before he is any chance of playing on the edge.Comment

Siua Wong has played each game and the full 80 minutesOriginally posted by RoosterBooster View Post
vs New Zealand - 51 tackles ( 3 missed) - 65 running metres vs Kikau's 23 tackles ( 6 missed) - 55 running metres
If you were picking who was the better backrower across the Tournament for Fiji then Siua Wong would be the pick.
One would say he will be playing NRL in 2023- be 20 next year so still able to play Jersey Flegg but I assume he will start at least in NSW Cup in 2023Comment

No sure why people are advocating for Suaalii to play second row though.
He is far better off staying in the backs especially if the Roosters want to retain him - note Corey Oates who actually started out as backrower and switched to the wing and then decided to switch back to the backrow a move which lasted one game.
I would highly doubt that Suaalii played anywhere but in the backs when playing league or union in his junior days.
As mentioned above Siua Wong made 51 tackles playing in the back row - do people really think Suaalii could handle the defensive loadComment

Suaalii might be suspended for the game against England for leading with his knee against Tonga. He has done the same thing playing for the Chooks.Comment

Shame if suspended as this is new ground for Samoa in a world cup.Originally posted by Mickie Lane View Post
However, as much as I'm a fan of smokin Joe, he's got to get that style out of his game so he can work on breaking tackles in a safer manner.
It'll lead nowhere other than his team being penalized and him suspended.Comment

I enjoyed the game this morning.
Aussies are still the best.Comment

Great game. Jared might have made the difference.

How good, Samoa in the final.
They wont get over Australia but its great for Samoa to make the final.
I go to the Philippines tomorrow so Ive got to find a place in Cebu to watch it.Comment

Great result for Samoa, and great for young Joe, real growing experience for him. Amazing Samoa won despite Milford making his usual 5 errors. New respect for Luai, he did really well. I hope Samoa really push Australia, in fact I hope they win.Originally posted by Mickie Lane View PostComment
