    @Nepia watched the first half, and Rieko always gets the ball and the tackler. The same can be said for most of our backline passing. We are obsessed with tight pop passing to cut through the line. It's rarely pretty or effective. One guy who consistently seems to run nice lines and gets space is Will Jordan

    It especially looks ugly in tough NH conditions.

    To be fair, playing in zero degrees doesn't sound great

    Reads like a different game to this thread though.
    And WTF?

    Can somebody start bombarding Beauden's girlfriend with tourism material for Japan?

    It's the ABs DNA, according to Wayne Smith.

    Sounds like Razors innovative ‘tackle a teammate’ initiative

    Best back on the pitch - shows a beautiful one eyed view of the game

    Mr Yellow Card, the player formally known as Anton Lienert Brown. Had a week off but this week back to type. Stupidity is currently an integral part of our DNA

    He is reliable… you can count on him for a yellow card in the 70th minute just about every game.

    If I did not know better when watching our back line it seems like they don’t know each other and they are all playing out of position.

    Playing far too flat. We hold the ball far too long at 10 instead of shifting it into the MF so they can work. Where have I heard that before?

    Telea's late try was almost a microcosm of where are at right now. Just a mess in midfield, BB is Johnny on the spot and gets the fortuitous regather, throws the long ball and we score. Far from clinical

    Arguably our loosies are improving, the tight forwards are solid, but the assistant coaches for the backs are being quite subtle in their value add.
