Franks and Moody are playing as a couple of inanimate objects who eventually turn up at a scrum.
The driest powder of all has been found in Moody and Franks adidas bags.
Aaron Smith has put away the running game we saw in Super Rugby, Ben Smith is cruising around in 3rd gear, Beauds only has one or two pops at the line a game, Whitelock is hardly carrying nor disrupting oppo line outs, Taylor is declining to carry the ball, Goodhue is feigning injury, Ioane is watching and learning.
All going to plan, bang on target.

I've been whooshed. The best I can come up with is the lead guitarist for Powderfinger.

No more fancy throw it wide stuff
Don't have a problem with the throw it wide stuff.
It's the aimless throw it wide stuff I have a problem with

At the same time I can see him playing Sonny if he is the more solid option in a game we really want to win
That's the problem right there.

@Stargazer there will be more spice to the game than has been for some time in Bled Cup play. I expect to see Kapa o Pango rolled out and a suitable intensity rise during the game

Nigel yaldan says , going by the handshakes at training, George bridge is about to start .

Yep, this is one week where they can't afford to train like Tarzan and play like Jane...

I thought that was last week but then if they played well it was only Australia so we couldn't judge their performance?

Is he still when there is such a stark difference in how the Wallabies have attacked and defended when White is on the park? I think the last two tests have shown the decline of Genia.
Hooper, White, Sio, Ala’alatoa, Hodge all better than Genia.
Genia was one of our best against Argentina, and won Man of the Match from memory.
We don't need to get into a rankings discussion necessarily, but I still think he's class. Played really well off the bench on Saturday, including setting up Beale's try.
I think he'd make our match-day 23 (probably as a sub for A Smith) easily

No, I mean he's on our bench as a sub for A Smith (i.e. he takes TJ's place) - sorry was not very clear!

I'm not going to watch Genia lead the haka.
