@Bones Like I say, faint praise. He did the basics okay. 3rd vote was definitely for the least worse player.

I was going to go for ALB like you, but then I remembered how poor our midfield defence was.

Hard to pick, was too many mistakes. Akira, Telea and Zarn for his impact.

@Dan54 said in All Blacks MOTM v Fiji:

I went ALB and Proctor, then in a virtual toss up with CC, I ended up going BB.

maybe because B is better then a C??

it's like the good old Smith days; we've gone from A B C smith to AA BB CC in the side 🙂

Christ, beware 14.5% shiraz drinking during the game.

I didn't vote for Beaudy, and I should have. Ethan, DMac and that was apparently it for me. Wild.

Have a virtual vote Beaudy and I'm looking forward to watching the replay this week

I had Ethan Dmac Sevu
I know not the most popular choices.
I can try justify it, but I’d rather open another beer and celebrate.

Lam for me - very very good again, physical, low error rate runs hard and hits hard. Love it. He's 25 - a season at 12 could throw him up towards the top level.
RR for solid lineout play and good work around the park
Dalton because his engine is top tier

Hoskins - superb work, lineouts in particular, lots of involvements but a few errors
Clarke has a big edge for the ABs with his work on restarts and chasing. Has gone to anothe rlevel this year, particularly in the air. Two head knocks i the game worry me though.
Plummer very solid.
Locks get a shout, along with the front row for their outstanding set piece.

There's a lot to like about they way Plummer is controlling the game and not overplaying his hand. Constantly keeps the ball in front of his forwards.

Aumua. Barrett. Lakai. My MOTM would be Lakai, just really impressed with his work.

@Winger 100% re Vijoen! he will learn, i highly rate this kid and definitely prefer him to Judd. glimpses of a young Aaron Smith. Good question re Rayasi will be interesting what they do

Chiefs lose game in front 5 and only RR gets votes?

Tuipulotu, Funaki, Ofa T.

Proctor, Lakai, Iose.

@Duluth said in Blues MOTM v Hurricanes:

Blues picked Heem & Plummer

Plummer was very solid. It's one area (1st 5) where the Blues had a big advantage

Lakai, Numia,TJP

Rayasi was outstanding when he was on

Sangster was impressive too

And Higgins is class. Far and away better than PUJ. Maybe needs to work on his kicking game but his passing, decision making and defense is first rate

@Canes4life said in Hurricanes MOTM vs Brumbies:

I went with Ruben Love and Xavier Numia as clearly our best two players on the park yesterday. Lomax got my last vote purely because we smashed the Brumbies scrum which had two of the best Wallaby props.

Same

Forbes, Funaki, Clarke.
