In fairness to Fozzy he specifically mentioned fitness being the reason he wasn't picked last year. Then selected him once fitness improved.

Yes. They told him he would be in the championship squad if he met certain fitness standards. He did the work and it was a success

Premier prop in the comp for me

@Duluth and not mention a spate of injuries
Still think Angus Ta’avao was an average selection from day dot -
Bit of helter-skelter play in the Chiefs 22, DMac gets the ball, thinks about running it but decides to play it safe. His play has matured a fair bit.

What a coach killer!
Paea again?AT this stage it's on the coaches for constantly selecting him. I mean, everyone knows what's going to happen.

Bingo. Ironically the 13 he is up against wasn't in the full Chiefs squad to start the season.

Not a bad effort from Burns..... I'd give him another go
-
@Victor-Meldrew after that cringe KFC ad my son and I refer to Angus as 'Glenys!' He's turned into a family joke
-
@Stargazer definetly not a lack of effort from the Landers just lack quailty in certain positions
-
more soft defence from landers.. and just nothing in behind the line
-
@Mattasaurus replacement hooker Marshall ,was an awful attempt
