Good win by the Sunwolves.
Tahs probably win if Mason wasn't at 10. That had to be the worst individual performance of the season.
He made a couple of errors, but was hardly the Lone Ranger on that front.
He put the ball right where it should have been a couple of times and the midfield fucked it. He didn't give away stupid breakdown errors in the opposition half like Hanigan or Hooper, and he didn't miss tackles like Beale or kick the ball dead like Gordon.
That said: why the fuck did we change a winning team? Home game against a decent opposition, riding the high of physically belting the Crusaders into submission.

Parker would waltz into an AB squad if they took 3 10s.
The Landers should have signed him instead of Gatland; I don't know for how long they've signed Josh Ioane, but I think only Marty Banks is off-contract at the end of the season.
Maybe the Canes should sign him next year instead of Garden-Bachop.

Parker is definitely a ten that needs to be playing in NZ, don't care where he goes, but get him on board
good back up for Mo'ounga

Parker’s always had talent and is a natural 1st 5, but it’s been his inconsistency. Now he’s playing with a bit of confidence and his kicking is superb.
If you let the Sunwolves hang around they do have a style that can put a defence under pressure.

A bunch of nuffies are out in force blaming Mason for this loss.
Idiots. Mason played to approximately the level you can get of a guy who has had about 30 minutes in a season at Super Level. Made mistakes but where were the senior backs around him taking some pressure as well?

Plus injuries - had ongoing issues with a shoulder. And then maybe a leg?

You raise a valuable point - if he never plays, how can he get the experience to not put on a display like that again?
How does Hanigan keep getting picked?

only consolation for my tipping:

Cheika loves him (Hanigan).
