Counties v Manawatu

@taniwharugby said in Counties v Manawatu:
@Bones def hasn't stood out in 2 of the 3 of theirs I watched, aside from that YC in the opening game
I think Counties despite being raw look capable of being much better.
I haven't lost the faith but I disagree with your last statement unless something drastic changes. Not only have the majority of our players looked a shade below, the reliance of Kerr at 10 is costing us time and time again.
The coaching looks OK, the set pieces, mauls and maul defence has been quite well put together even if the scrum has fallen apart a couple of times.
I'd like to see Leger given a run at 10. He looked capable when he filled in under emergency at the Chiefs as has far far better kicking from hand than Baden, who has been atrocious in this skill at the worst moments. -
@Crucial Kerr def doesn't look up to it, which will be stifling anything outside.
I thought they have shown potential but lacking polish...but nothing a bit of confidence wouldn't help set them right.
Tough digging out of that hole, but i expect they will be too strong for Manawatu

Lindenmuth gives away a stupid penalty within range of the sticks. Brain farts like that just kill a team.

Lindenmuth clearly offside at that ruck. How is that not a penalty try?
