name the 21 man squad assuming tpj and Oates resign
 
My 17 + an 18th man:
1. Boyd
2. Oates
3. Roberts
4. Bird (c?)
5. Isaako (c?)
6. Milf (c?)
7. SOS/ Paix/ Boyd? (up for grabs)
8. McGuire
9. Macca
10. Lodge (c?)
11. Gillet (c)
12. Su'a/ Fifita
13. TPJ/ Joffa with Su'a a smokie
14. Niko
15. TPJ/ Joffa
16. Fifita
17. Haas
18. Carrigan

Unless TPJ can play JT13 minutes for the entirety of the season I would move him to the bench and use him in the prop rotation with Joffa playing big mins as the stat machine. Joffa never seems to tire when he's out there, and is ripe for a breakout year. Su'a might be able to play at lock which would allow Fifita to start, but I doubt that happens.

Isaako and Boyd could very well switch positions if Isaako develops a passing game in the off season.

We need to go with two co-captains. Bird looks good in theory as he's got the competitive grit about him, but I see potential in Lodge, Isaako, and Milf when it comes to leadership. Joffa and TPJ could also be in the running here.

I have Kahu and Glenn leaving the club but if they stay still ain’t in my top 17 and as for bird I’m unsure of his future so I’ve left him out but if he stays, he will be in the top 17 somewhere.

If Bennett is still our coach for 2019 I'd say that this will be bang on barring any pre season injuries and the Kahu/Glenn rumours are correct. You would hope that Niko either improves dramatically in the pre season or SOS pushes him out during the year and they swap roles. McGuire at lock again will drive me to drink but hopefully someone sees some sense and moves him back to prop.
 
The squad may look something like this:

1 Boyd
2 Oates
3 Roberts
4 Bird
5 Issako
6 Milford
7 Nikorima
8 Lodge
9 McCullough
10 Ofengahue
11 Glenn
12 Gillette
13 McGuire

14 Fifita
15 Haas
16 Carrigan
17 Lowe

18 Mago
19 Rein
20 Latimore
21 O'Sullivan

I see you are including the typical Bennett final-year-of-contract dud signings.
