Whiting is the only obvious weak point in their backline for me. Turner could turn out to be a sensational player and Briscoe has all the ingredients to be on the 4 Nations tour at the end of the year. Tansey isn't a bad player either.
For us we've got Wello, Gardner and Meli (Although he's not in the country) who aren't a threat from any further out than 5 metres. Gidley was absolutely anonymous after signing his last contract for us, so it'll be interesting to see if he's motivated enough. Soliola is in the pack for most of the season if you believe those in the know which leaves us potentially having to bring a young player in either at centre or on the wing.
We play Sia at centre and we lose a lot of impact from the pack.
We should have signed Lote Tiquiri on a one year deal me thinks.

Whiting isnt a weak link, Ok he wont break the line and go 80 metres, but defensivley he is excellent, is strong and has good hands. Think he has been put there to combat your excellent centres.
Also think Hall will be on the wing in place of Turner.
Looking the teams though I cant see us beating you.
