Some interesting changes.
Not sure why you’d put the best defensive Centre in the comp on the wing. Might be fine in attack but seems odd, given Taylor’s a rugby 7s player.
Interested to see if there’s much difference with Roche at 7 or if they both just play one side each.
No idea why we signed Vette-Welsh for 3 years when she’s clearly not up to it.
Sharks middles are a scary prospect

Very odd reserve grade side named.
Mia Middleton named on the bench.
All the players named on the extended squad for firstgrade have been named in the starting side for reserves, and 3 backs on the bench.
It's 2 days after firstgrade - so maybe they are not really picking a side - just seeing who they have on Saturday.

What's happened to Nakia Davis welsh. Everytime I've watched her play I've though gee why isn't she playing regular firsts? Runs hard and is quite skillful aswell.

Davis-Welsh is unavailable (believe it was a head knock). Think she would've been on the bench ahead of Karpani based on how they were named in the trial.
Pleasantly surprised that Vette-Welsh has been left out all together, thought they might've just dug the heels in to attempt to justify the dumb 3-year deal they gave her. She looked liked she'd gotten even slower in the trial. Not a huge White believer either but she's younger and there's at least more upside there.
Everything else is pretty much chalk. Parker started on the wing in the trial but switched with Taylor at points throughout the game. Hopefully Taylor hits the ground running like Willison did. Taulelei-Siala gets the nod ahead Robins-Reti. Not fussed on the numbers in the halves, Dibb will be on the right and Roche on the left. No surprises in the forwards or bench.

Parker hasn’t been superb at centre defensively for past couple seasons, she lacks the agility but has great footy IQ. Will be a good mentor for Sidney who if she the defence steady is going to be very strong with her running game.
Think Bo’s days at FB are done but she could be a handy centre/6. Lovely person but not the type of player we should have signed long term. White isn’t winning games individually but I like he’s backed her. Lucy Spain is looking good at FB in Cup.
Stoked for Siala coming back from an injury, she looks strong in trial
Pasikala looked great in trial and will be a superb sub with Yeo. Sharks will be tough but Dibbs kicking game will help immensely.
