Aoake is substandard for an Auckland wing
Evans was excellent off the bench last week. I think he could play 13, with Heem on a wing.
Both fullbacks being injured is annoying. Rayasi is dangerous but inconsistent at 15

Pugh is very small for an 8.

Jones on the bench is very similar to the starters
Gibson has been in good form though. His return helps

@Duluth yeah, looking forward to seeing Beehre. Aoake is substandard for an Auckland wing. Pugh is very small for an 8.

@nzzp They could have saved time if he'd gone off immediately.
