PRO Rugby’s San Francisco team have announced their starting lineups for their clash with Denver at Boxer Stadium (SF) this Sunday, April 24, 2016.
They began their season on the road last week against Sacramento losing 37-25 in a very exciting match.
San Francisco has made changes at both scrumhalf and flyhalf from last week. Dev Ferris and Orene Ai’i start at 9 and 10, respectively; and Voleny Rouse moves from flyhalf to the wing, making the back three explosive.
In the forwards, Jay Finau steps in a hooker for Tom Coolican, who was impressive the week before available as a reserve. Siupeli Sakalia replacies suspended Nick Grass in the scrum at Lock. Tevita “David” Tameilau is at 8-man.
San Francisco Squad: 1. Maka Tameilau 2 Jay Finau 3 Patrick Latu (captain) 4 Siupeli Sakalia 5 Siaosi Mahoni 6 Sam Finau 7 Alec Gletzer 8 Tevita Tameilau 9 Devereaux Ferris 10 Orene Ai’i 11 Jack O’Hara 12 Martini Talapusi 13 Nick Blevins 14 Volney Rouse 15 Jake Anderson 16 Tom Coolican 17 Fancy Namulau’ulu 18 Codi Jones 19 Issac Helu 20 Junior Helu 21 Michael Reid 22 Michael Haley 23 Charles Mateo
