It will be tricky. Australia Cup game with be sometime 26th-30th August from memory.
U23s play PNG August 28th & Fiji August 30th. With straight to semis no quarters U23s really can't afford to lose 1 pool game, to be 100% safe.
For the Nix, Duncan could slip in for Paulsen & Al-Taay was tried at RB against the Peninsula Power. Payne & Wootton to pair up as CBs. Bench will have to be a host of Weenix kids - those not in the U23s. Ben Wallace, Jackson Manuel, Rudland, Nguyen etc. Could someone like Francis de Vries be signed on a very short term deal to help out??
