@gt12 would have him over Ioane in the ABs any day. He’s a tough bugger.

Jacobson needs to show it at test level. Something Akira has already done.

I think that’s fair, and Jacobson is really an 8 anyway so I dont see those players as being in direct competition- Akira should be at 6 for the ABs (or off the bench).

Not often, they're pretty much at the same point

Jacobson is competing with Sotutu, not Akira.

Christ, he fell into that

[Kruse]

dangerous cuddle to the head

[KiwiMurph]

Holmes got yellowed for far less last night.

Doesn't Jacobson play 6 too?

It really annoys me that a tackler doing nothing wrong gets penalised if the attacking player slips

Can play all three, but he’s much better at 8 IMO

[gt12]

Dammit.

Chiefs losing shape with ALB rushing up and no one in cover

[Tim]

I think A Ioane and Jacobson are the best options at both 6 and 8 in NZ. Sotutu as backup.

[gt12]

Don’t fuck this up - a bonus point is absolutely needed to stay in the hunt for the competition.

Nice to have options, lots of good loosies

[Derpus]

@gt12 who the fuck cares. Crusaders will obviously win it. Besides the Blues 20 odd years ago no Kiwi team has beaten them in a final.

[Nepia]

I like both Jacobsen and Akira. I like the Ginga Messiah too.

[taniwharugby]

@tim i prefer Sotutus skillset at 8

But yep, some fantastic loosies running around at moment

I’d be tempted to have Savea and Robinson on the bench in that case which would make Sotutu and some others pretty unlucky.

[Canes4life]

@gt12 Savea will be at 7 with Cane out.

Not if Paps keeps being the new Cane

@derpus This is getting awfully repetitive ... Have a beer.

They might not even make the final with the way the competition is going so far
