The threat Will Jordan offers is almost night and day to Fergus Burke - drawing defenders and opening gaps.
Great idea and execution to skip hungus ennor
I don't have him so much as a hungus, as someone who seems to go to ground much too easily when he does have a go.
Depends how you define it. He's never going to make it so pass

I think the only thing we'll learn from this fixture is Cron made an error taking the Force coaching role.

Don't see the point of continuing to play well past the 80th minute when you are so far ahead. Only risk getting injured. Kick the ball out and take the win.
Confidence-building?

@nostrildamus Having some fun.
But, I agree with Akaan it's not strictly professional if you lose someone to serious injury.
-
@KiwiMurph Not having a poke at you specifically on the line-kicking.
It's an eye-opening point I've heard Razor make a couple of times in interviews, so we'd better get used to the philosophy.

That's fine but you also see it regularly when it's not red zone related (i.e. around midfield).
-
@KiwiMurph There's probably some criticism that's valid and some not.
It's Moneyball stuff - but, people need to be aware of what they're criticizing.

@SBW1 did the reviewer watch the match? Grace was not that good. Thought Moody very good. Did not see Brewis at all. Don't know how he got his rating. Did Mounga really only miss two kicks? Who took the others? Perhaps I missed stuff too.
I thought Grace did his job. What did he do wrong?

It would be correct if you didn't see Brewis at all, as he didn't play. How that Rugbypass writer missed that?
Brewis was ruled out of the game and was replaced on the bench by debutant Andrew Turner, who made a good impression in his first SR game.

I think a Super Rugby head coaching role was the logical and obvious decision for Simon Cron. He took over the Force when they were at a low level and any improvement will enhance his future prospects.
