2016 World Sevens Series
-
<p>those last 2 kicks by Baker won that!</p>
-
<p>Te Tamaki has some serious wheels, he looked rapid against those SA speedsters..although he had just had a long rest too</p>
-
<p>you'd think that Fiji will be huge favorites as that game woulda sapped NZ big time, were a few end to end chases in that game.</p>

I am losing my faith in Baker. I used to think he was the best in the field. Dunno anymore. As an outsider I enjoy All Blacks as you are the main opposition and he always stood out. I had wondered where he had gone to. Anyway his discipline really lets him down. If loses All Blacks a gold card one day due to a red or yellow card due to silly punch don't blame someone else. He really is the type of guy you could pick on under pressure. I thought the All Blacks would handle shit like this.

<p>You mean the guy who just lead an underperforming NZ team to victory over SA with an excellently executed field position kick and then a pin perfect kick pass?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yeah, wilted under pressure...</p> -

That's not what he meant and to be honest he may have a point. Baker can be a right dick sometimes. Hopefully he doesn't cost NZ dearly. -
<p>sure he can be a muppet (always has been - how long has he been in the 7s) but those 2 kicks were pure class.</p>
