Forward pack was fantastic, Patty T had a great game, impressive. Holland the Lio-Willie looking like natural players in the test match arena, Vaa'i surprisingly mobile and looking good at 6. Savea looking good at 7 and the forward pack is a lot more balenced I feel. Reiko looking good on the wing. Credit where credit is due the selctins have been on point.

Ourbackline however not overly brilliant, ball still gets stuck in midfield, we seemed to have lost the ability for the backline to make space or to effectivly manipulate the defence for players to hit gaps.

Perhaps we need to find a player that can distribute and see how they go.

Any good wingers going around that we could chuck in there??

Super Rugby bias’s aside you’ll be pushed to find many Ferners that don’t want to see Tangitau get a chance when he’s ready. He looks to be a real weapon.

Ferner you'd most like to have $48 whiskeys with: @mariner4life .

I gave Ardie a vote because he has acknowledged that the actual word for “learnings” is lessons.

He should probably retain the captaincy for this alone, or at least be given all post match interviews.

@Canes4life the old one they used to do (c 2000 - 2010, player values fluctuated, you had like 3 trades a round I think (which wasnt ideal, especially with so many byes in current format, so what they could do is allow unlimited trades on players in bye week or listed as injured, subject to your salary obviously)

@MN5 you have far too much time on the fern now you've given up growing chillies.

I was going to get pissy and say start your on thread, but every notification gives me a reason to re read this thread and bring back the good times.

I injured my ankle so had 6 month out. Back in now, Althoigh I’ve got an extremely tight hammy so currently just on the rower. Joys of being old.

Awesome work @African-Monkey. You should be very proud of yourself.

Yeah I do apologize as you did start the thread. I was going to start a while back, but saw you had the same interest and thought I'll come in and be a dick and blend in and join you.

I do hope you make a full recovery and hope you can make it back on the roads again. You were making some really good progress with your times.

Server a bit slow right now.. I’ll restart a few things.

You could run a “test” thread and ask everyone to ignore it?
