Not sure about a few of the above selections, Lee doubtful to be back, Jones despite his great game is not a regular centre and Fitz coming back from injury is not fitting in better than Sue, King etc. most of the other picks are sort of expected

1. Ponga
2. To’a/Hunt
3. Tuala
4. Best
5. Musgrove
6. Mann
7. Green
14. Jones
12. Fitzgibbon if fit

9. Brailey
8. Klemmer

13. Watson
15. J Saifiti
16. Barnett (if it’s good enough for Dale Finucane & Jai Arrow...)

17. Jones.
 
If Lee not ready and Toa still injured/out then we could see Schibs back at centre or Jones filling in.
Musgrove played well, thought of him more a centre than wing, is his preference right or left side
 
1. Ponga
2. Tuala
3. Jones He played better there than Shibs and deserves the chance after that performance yesterday .
4. Best
5. Musgrove He deserves another start imo Toa im not sure about at wing .
6. Mann
7. Green
8. D.Saifiti
9. Brailly
10. J.Saifiti
11. Frizzell
12. Barnett
13. Watson
14. Klemmer Just to give him a bit of a rest .
15. King
16. Sue
17. Sasagi
 
Well both To'a and Musgrove have scored 3 tries in their reserve grade career.
To'a did it in 4 games when he was 18 (in 2019)
Musgrove scored his 3 tries in 16 games over the last 4 years.
The point being, To'a is a try scorer. If he gets half a sniff, he'll score.
Coaches love Musgrove because he does a lot of things well, but one of them isn't scoring tries.
To be fair, Musgrove has mostly played centre.
 
Toa has been carrying an injury for a few weeks me thinks so let him get it right before resuming, he is a good player when fully fit.
think Musgrove is certainty to play this week, see no reason to not start the side that played 5+mins on against Sharks, might swap Watson to 14, Sue to 13, bench Watson, JSaf, King, Saulo/Sasagi assuming Klem is fit.
bad loss Hunt, he is our most versatile 2-5 And plays strong.
