    @pukunui I think the chiefs would be the perfect fit for a Ranger,especially if Ngatai recovers from his concussion,along with Lienart Brown in the midfield,and with James Lowes heading oversees,I would utilise Rene as wing option.

    He's a great NPC level player whose game doesn't click at Super level.

    Personally I reckon he should look for a UK contract. Nick Evans has just retired from Harlequins, Jimmy Gopperth was a similar level in NZ and has hugely contributed over here.
    The style of play for 10s especially means they get that extra split second on the ball that West seems to need.
    He could look at the Canes but it would be as a pine rider (as would any other NZ contract)

    He re-injured his ankle.

    @ACT-Crusader Still recovering from his ankle injury, I think.

    Selecting a 30+ yr old to play on the wing is hardly forward-thinking. There will be better options around.

    The Chiefs would take Nanai though. 😉

    Looks that way, the Reds are a bloody shambles. Ranger playing well so far.

    Stiles was threatening to give the youngsters a run. Looks like he should give the waterboy a week as coach...

    A couple of dumb kicks from us there. Let's just keep the ball in hand in that position.

    Francis has crap hands.

    Faiane is playing well but often seems to push the pass when he should take the tackle instead.

    Here's an idea Blues - stop giving away penalties that they can kick to the corners.

    Mauls are hard to defend at the best of times but the Blues are absolutely clueless in that regard.

    looked like it. I'd like these kinds of maybe forward, maybe backwards kind of knocks to be called knock ons more often, it shows a lack of skill that should be punished, no matter whether the ball went forwards 5 cm or backwards. Blues going to lose to this absolute shit team

    Higginbotham hands in the ruck so obvious, Laban (edited) says "good technique". Genius commentator
