Me too, tho I missed Savea and clicked Sititi, whoops - but he was good too

[booboo]

Ardie, Williams, Clarke

[Canes4life]

I went Roigard, Lakai and Clarke

[mariner4life]

Oof, tough today.

Savea had his best game of the year.
Roigard had a big 50 minute shift
Vaai and Williams were at the heart of our set piece advantage.
Clarke was arguably the most dangerous player on the field.

Savea, Clarke, and vaai because I love a contested lineout.

Savea, Williams, Clarke

[mariner4life]

We should have a "blame" poll as well. I reckon they would be hilarious threads after a loss.

[canefan]

Savea Williams and Cam

[Mattasaurus]

Roigard, Williams and Lakai

Lakai had an excellent game. Gave us significant go forward

[ARHS]

Roigard Williams Dmac. Clarke and Vaai good also.

A man of intelligence and taste. Obviously a good judge of rugby.

[reprobate]

Vaai, his first 20 minutes were superb.
Williams. Really good.
Clarke.
Savea was good at 7 eh? Best game of his year. Wallace not so good at 8. Both too small for that close in role I reckon.
Taylor continued his good year.

He played 6 for most of the match

[mariner4life]

Stationed out wide where our 6 has been all year.

[reprobate]

Ah yeah true, regardless: wide channels is good for both of them.

[Nepia]

Damn, seems like everyone else saw a different Ardie than I did. Thought he was ok, some good runs in that 6 channel as mariner mentioned, but still not peak Ardie and/or MOTM Ardie for me.

Might have to do a Reuben Thorne style rewatch of the game to see where I went wrong.

[reprobate]

@Nepia there's nothing really contradictory in what you're saying.

One awesome run to set up a try aside, I didn't come away thinking he'd had a massive performance. Strangely Lakai appeared most visible in a positive sense.

Not strange. He played like that all SR season. For what SR form is worth.....
