Is it just me or is Akira's absence noticeable..?

If only captain combover could elucidate me on what he wasn't doing effectively.

Not allowed to say that.....

Ill say it .. akira wasn't good enough for the Abs

If that's the standard given how Akira played for the ABs then about 70% of the current squad have the same issue

I wouldn't disagree with that either.... I simply do not thin akira ever lived up to the hype / potential ( and he is not the only one in that category)

Why do they need to drop another? Is this a new rule or???

If you force uncontested scrums as a result of receiving a YC, that means you have to drop a player.

[Mattasaurus]

wow ... this game is mental

[Machpants]

Big Jim needs to take ioane position in abs

[mariner4life]

I literally just clapped on my couch. Inspired play

It's a shame as just when it looked like he'd got the mental side of things right and really matured as a player, we got two one-eyed Cantabs in charge unwilling to give him a go. But let's not get distracted from a cracking match

Tavatavanawai unbelievable leader for this team

If he could do this at international level, he'd be a sensational bench man
