v Tasman
-
from what I have heard, yep Kara is plenty well short of 100%.
I like the look of Stokes, he played in the B game v Naki last week didn't he?
This game could get ugly, very ugly, but am hopeful it will be one of those ones where we expect the worst and they perform pretty well, while still losing
-
@taniwharugby yes, Stokes was captaining the B's last week.
The report I heard was that if he took a few more kicks at goal instead of going for tries all the time, they may have won...But yes, he looks a good player. He's not the biggest fulla, so it might be a size thing as to why he hasn't played more, as we know the coaches are obsessed with bigger blokes.
-
wheres the urgency?
-
Hawkins just meanders back to the restarts?? We dont seem to have the right attitude, no agression or urgency.
Was one part of that try that was a bit dodgy...
-
I missed the start, Moulds off already??
-
gee they were trying not to award that!
-
whos on the bench then?
-
Werahiko?
We started ok. Lots of little errors on attack with scrums etc. Then we leaked points but actually I think we are in this one with wind at our backs and reduced error rate.
Will have to sort out the setting of scrums.
But we do look hopeless at lineout maul time.
-
raining and we have the wind now too?
-
@taniwharugby thats their attempt to tie up the clock into the wind, it does not look great though. the coach should just get in Ross Wrights ear and tell him to get the tight together and hunt in a pack, to much standing off trying to set into their pods, tight 5 need to get tighter on attack and defense. hyland showing what can be done when someone runs direct, bring in Dunn and he can do the same
-
yeah we had that when Fosita played on the wing, with his lack of pace and power, but did the basics well
-
20-13....odd sub there? Nevile for FV2
