Aumua. Rieko for shutting down their attack. McKenzie especially for nailing most of the kicks.

[Victor Meldrew]

Easy this week. Aumua, Reiko & DMac.

Honourable mentions to Lomax, Sititi and Vaa'i

[Canes4life]

Aumua, DMac and Roigard

[mariner4life]

Unlike last week I expect a fair spread of votes

I think:
Aumua was massive. Set piece excellent, great around the field, big try assist.
Ioane. Great defence out wide, good breakdown work as usual, and a couple of great touches on attack.
Wallace Sititi. Pur best player of the first half. Defensive side of the ball gets better every week, our best running forward too. Watch the try again and Sititi had a few key touches, and little shit done right like ball placement when tackled. A real gem of a footballer.

[BerniesCorner]

Aumua, DMac and Reiko

[ARHS]

DMac and Aumua. Roigard was huge in second half. Jordie was v good. Really impressed with the way that Dmac and Cane looked to inspire and guide the troops under huge pressure, when it appeared it had got to Ratima.

[KiwiMurph]

Aumua Scott Barrett Rieko

Very tough to pick just 3 this week

[canefan]

Big ups to Aumua after a tough few weeks. Wallace is mister reliable. Rieko was a big reason why they couldn't penetrate our midfield. Scott spoke up and fronted up. The whole tight five including subs are turning into quite a unit

Me three

[BerniesCorner]

Good to see Scott Barrett playing like his old self.

[MajorRage]

Savea, I think he’s being judged vs 2023 form. He played well and made a cpl of big plays. Aumua best on park

Really? Savea was the third best of our loosies today IMHO. I think he had a better game but he's not on his top form. Cane blunted the Irish early and Sititi showed he can do the work in a less flashy game.

[Stag]

Bit bemused by the Reiko talk. He made 7 runs for not many meters, 5 tackles missing 1 of them and conceded a turnover. He didn’t have a bad game but was the same average centre he has been for his entire midfield career.
Amua had a great game and McKenzie was very good. Wallace had the same high level performance he always has and Scooter was good leading from the front.
