Well that was an easy pick, both Ioanes and Dalton.

Not imo, he was at fault for first Ozzie try, around the ruck defence he was often out of position. Ardie more tackles in 35 mins than 80 for paps.

[ACT Crusader]

A. Ioane, Taylor, Bower

Next best R. Ioane, Retallick, Havili

[ARHS]

Akira Retallick and Weber for me. Reiko next.

[Stargazer]

Akira, Bower and Havili.

[Hooroo]

Akira Papalii and Weber for me

[Crucial]

Akira, BBBR and ALB for me.
ALB with great defence, linking and turnovers

[sparky]

Akira
BBBR
Scott Barrett

So funny what you see, people voting for Weber, who I thought shit, and paps, who I thought average

paps

His defence was good, and he made some good turnovers.

Sure but he was defensively out of position often around the ruck, silly off sides. Didn't say he was rubbish, just no way top 3

The same for me. Rieko the next on my list.

According to stuff on AI:

Made a whopping 82 metres with game-high numbers for clean breaks (three) and defenders beaten (nine).

[Canes4life]

Akira, Brodie and Reiko

So glad Reiko is back on the wing, now let's leave him there.

[Stargazer]

@canes4life It's possible, with Ennor back in the frame. They should give him game time against Argies though. He's seriously undercooked, just like Aumua.

ABs defenders beaten 19, of which Ioane's defenders beaten 13

Half of the closest contenders might not make the field again this year.

[Tim]

Retallick was very good today. Looking forward to him and Whitelock combining at peak form.

[Bones]

Weber?

The ludicrous amount of "bounce" passes would see him kicked off most netball teams.
