For me, Scurr comes in. Do we drop Mason or Hallas? Hallas' discipline/temper is a liability at times but he has utility value (Loose/hooker/prop) and a decent engine. Mason is an out & out prop and has been slowly gaining match fitness and forcing his way into contention. He seems to have edged ahead of Bayliss (prop) and Waine (prop/2nd row) in the coaches thinking. I think, we drop Hallas. Our discipline is what is losing us matches more than any other factor.
Still a back short unless we play Bayley Liu out of position. Doro certainly provides some punch in the middle of the field and will be fit thanks to the HKR fulltime environment - maybe a little match rusty.
Starting 13 pretty much picks itself. Bench spots are very tricky as Scurr rightfully comes back in but dropping Michael or Mason feels unfair as both have played well recently. Impact subs needed so Scurr gets the nod ahead of Mason.
