    Bugs the hell out of me if I’m honest, others seems to get a free ride where as these guys are at least solid and we ignore them, glad for them someone is showing interest

    Some attitude issues with Freedom, by all accounts.

    @smudge may be true but you have to wonder what is says if we can’t handle those issue but the crusaders think they can or at least he’s good enough to try

    Attitude problem is pretty generic. Could be something as simple as a personality clash with the 'wrong' person.

    Hey guys what are the chances we'll see Vilimoni koroi on the left wing at the cake tin sat night? either him or Gregory would presume with Timu out for awhile right?

    @fakatavafuture i would prefer to see koroi over gregory...gregory looks much better in midfield and i'd like him to concentrate on that

    But...Koroi is also obviously our 10/15 cover and so i honestly think id rather see dawai again, give him a chance to redeem himself or maybe we'll see Alaimalo

    @kiwiwomble tikoisolomone the winger from the naki is another option although even at npc level I think most of his appearances were off the pine , there's also the small speedy fella from Waikato that's joined the squad coombes fabling but he's only been in the set up for like a week

    So Faleafaga surely can't be worse than Hunt?

    I wouldn’t rush him (he’s 19?), but the fact that they refuse to give Koroi a chance is really baffling to me.

    Why not rush him? Because easing him in at an older age worked for Hunt?

    I don’t think the kid has played anything beyond schoolboy rugby, so I think its fair to bring him on a bit slowly. Not having a third 10 in the squad is unforgivable though.

    Josh Ioane might have been handy eh.

    I’m happy to give you Gatland back right now.
