I know we have a bit of a laugh giving Bridge stick but seriously if he can’t make any ground in a game like this it is time that the selectors took note.
He's not even on the field?
Not that you’d notice anyway
What if you can't defend your wing against a team of this calibre and a winger who's a nobody?
You're a Scotland supporter?
In another dimension I might be understanding this.
There’s no way Bridge would make the mighty Scottish team

@kiwiinmelb he's over there?
I think he means in the next phase.
Ennor has shown more and Clarke will hopefully come back. Bridge has skills, he is just ineffective at this level. -

Oblique reference to the USA beating Scotland a few years back.

If Clarke can find his first year form then even better, if not he's just another Bridge...

And their winger being better than Bridge/Jordan?

Christie and Tupaea can be very happy with their games. Perenara not so much. All the players constantly trying no look passes to the back and so many of them going wrong was a bit annoying, but understandable, due to the crap opposition. Good to see Whitelock and Cane back, but Cane looked very underdone.

Perenara is awful.
He’s done aye, his passing is a shambles. Only reason he looks half good is his support play.

Always there eh, but that just means more opportunities to fuck it up.

Even beating up on the special ed class at PE, DMac and TJP manage to look shit.
I hope we got a bunch of cash for this opportunity to grow the game. Americans love supporting losers.

Thoroughly enjoyed that and have not read the posts. Great advert for rugby. The emotion in the buildup and the colourful crowd really added something. Fantastic refereeing meant we got to see skillsets and how the game should be played. And the USA really lifted in second half and will benefit greatly from the outing. Only downer was the AB subs. Starting props and Christie were fantastic. McKenzie showed his amazing creative spark and must have endeared himself to the crowd. The workrate of Vaii and Tupaea was huge. And I kept seeing big defensive hits from Jacobson. Jordan was always a threat and Ennor showed promise. Wonderful to see so many skills displayed.

Very difficult to learn from these games but QT is a legit second five, he goes straight, gets metres, and links well, DH just doesn't have the same punch for me. Ball from ruck to RM seemed quick and fluid with Finlay, looked like a dogs breakfast when TJ came on. Lots to like about Ennor as well, has to be an option at wing over Bridge you would think. Starting forwards all played well and set a great platform. Overall, a good training run for the boys.
-
Why are there so many Sam Cane haters on social media? Like man he comes back from injury and plays a minimal role for sure but the man's not put a foot wrong as AB's captain. People see last year and think he's a shit captain when in reality, you can only deal the hand you're dealt. Foster continues his selection of average fringe players and people blame Cane. Casual rugby watchers at their finest.

@yeetyaah ha, I've come to the realise many of those people on SM are casual fans with a very superficial knowledge of the game.
