MotM vs Scotland

SBW/Ioane/Whitelock. I chucked an honorable mention to Squire thought his impact when he came on was huge.

@chester-draws yep.

@nepia @Crucial I dunno about you guys, but I count making poor offensive decisions and compounding it by being ragdolled like MN5 trying to show rugby knowledge as utter shit. If it was Ben Blair you fellas would be all over it.
Beauden threw forward passes, made a host of shit kicks, and showed no penetration at first receiver. However being on the end of an SBW offload and nice DMac line and he's a MOTM contender?
Apparently BB is allowed to run hot and cold. But DMac has to only run hot?
Funny I think the same thing about Cane. Cane gave away a dumb penalty and yellow card, made no turnovers that I can recall and didn't make an exceptional number of tackles. He just seems to always automatically get a third vote even if he is very ineffectual.

He barely got any votes in this game. When are the other games you feel he was ineffectual?

I can recall a Cane turnover in the first half - but then the game was only yesterday and I'll have forgotten it by tomorrow.

Special mention to Hames for stamping ALL BLACK all over everything he came near.
I'll watch the game again tomorrow, but the penalty Hames won at the end for Berghan standing up - it looked to me for all the world that the ref got it sooooo wrong and Hames was boring in at almost 90 degrees, then up and under, forcing the tighthead to pop out of the scrum.
Yip I think you are completely right.
It was ever thus -- Phil Kearns was probably ecstatic!

The thing is, as a prop (retired) I have to admire what Hames did, he knew the ref was on the other side, the touch judge was half the pitch away and there was no spider cam, so he went for it. On the one level I applaud it, on the other I'm outraged!!! outraged I tell you!
You front row guys inhabit a different world, don't you? Kudos to Hames for realising that in space no one can hear a TH scream?
