One guy I was really impressed with was Parkinson.
He is starting to play to his potential.
I like three of our four locks

The big change was Thompson, midfield calmed down and just made some space for the outsides
I like rob but think he needs a break
Gregory exercised some demons
McKay was good, that’s the kind of play I’ve always liked about him and glad we got to see a bit of it
None our those guys could have done what they did without smith, d Hunt, frizzel and MMT

@Bones Ioane’s passing is test level class. It’s quick, he can pass long both ways. It asks questions of the defence.
Yeah to be honest I think that part of his game shades... well any other kiwi ten probably. Doesn't have the short passing game of some of the others but just gives so much time and space to the wide outs.

I feel like an alien has invaded his body. Completely different player from the previous few years.

Imagine the expletives coming out of Neil Barnes this week.

I think he might just be a bit burnt out, he’s one of the seniors and one of the few constants in the back line this season, think he’s been trying to do too much

He started the season in the same form. If he's burnt out before he even plays then he needs to change something drastically.

thought you could only go back 2 rucks at most to look for infringements. there was clear 3 rucks.
Well not sure you can have a ruck if it's from an offside play...😬
-
@Bones that’s fair, I’d be happy for collins to swap in for a bit

So, turned out to be a good game to have missed then...
We were hammering them.
And then we lost.

Cane asked that I think, said it was “all one long play” or words to that effect , not sure now

@Kiwiwomble pity one long phase isnt in the rule book.

Not arguing, just what I thought I heard the ref say and I don’t know the letter of the law with that stuff

Off today's showing, definitely. His decision making and execution was sublime once he had less time....
Going off selection so far though I'm inclined to think we'll see McKay to 12 and Tomkinson shuffled out one.

I could see that, I like what McKay did with space though

Prexactly. He must be stopped.
