Has to stay captain No other option -

Ardie is getting up there with DC, Goat, and nonu as greatest in the modern age. He's coming into another players best award, so three? In a row (edit nope cane got it 2020, Ardie 2019)
-
Ardie was absolutely ridiculous today. How he remains standing at the end of a game is a mystery to me.
-
Lol at anyone picking a number higher than 9
A Savea easiest (though get out of halfback sometimes)
A Smith was excellent organising a forward game.
D Papalii put in a massive massive shift and was why we had phase after phase of quick ball. -

Ardie, Smith and Whitelock for me. Quite astonished that at the time of voting I am the only Whitelock voter tbh.
At least 2, probably 3 dumb penalties

Two penalties. One was really dumb, but I thought the other was a Barnes special and very unlucky.

The more work you do the more likely a penalty as well.
I wouldn’t give away a single penalty at this level as I would be hiding on the bus. -
I'm on the Savea, Papali'i and Smith train as well.
I see Scooter got his regular Fern votes - TBH i thought he put in a decent shift. Also much improved performance by Taylor. (Mentioned those two together for their combined try scoring effort twice - Taylor with the ball and Scooter pushing him over).
Frizell didn't live up to my hope of him having an awesome game but luckily the other two loosies meant he didn't have to.
-
Sav, Pap, Smith
-
Huge workrate by Savea and Dalton. Aaron back to the type of game we know he can have when he's at his best.
Honourable mention to the tight five who put in an excellent shift.
Backs apart from Jordie were hit and miss with their often limited opportunities. Worst by a long shot was Caleb - when you get almost nothing in that type of game, you can't afford to not catch balls.

I thought Scooter was really good and should be a starter ahead of Retallick!
