    I love Finau probably more than anyone on this forum, but I'm still not convinced, for all his power and skill, he does enough.

    But what I hope this coaching group does, is take obvious talent and develop it.

    Serious hp that dude has

    Imagine being a young loosie and having Messam as an in-house mentor?
    A great player sure, but heart and soul Chiefs man, who understands how to just work hard to build a fucking great career.

    He's a freak with a great attitude and the perfect frame.

    Wasn't always that way with Messam either. Was a flash harry player at the start of his career and by the end of his career was tough as nails into everything player

    Razor likes high workrate players like Blackadder, but I think Finau will still be the starting 6.

    Picking busy ineffective guys is a blindspot for a few coaches.
    Find talent, mould it. You can build workrate with instructions and positioning.

    I went back and watched the 2nd Chiefs try off the charge down

    It was entirely Perenara's fault

    After the ball was charged down Perenara got possession and he inexplicably threw the ball back basically straight to Sititi

    That said, every team needs role players. Just not in the loose forwards.

    A number of Hurricanes wilted in a pressure game and probably fatally affected there All Black chances.
    A number of Chiefs did the opposite.

    For all that I thought a few canes were really good.
    JBarrett is not what some try to make out, but he is the best hard carrying midfielder in the country. Of he and DMac can gel they should create oodles of space
    I thought Love was good at FB
    Lakai is a weapon of an openside
    That's as good as I've seen IWL play
    The front row were good.

    I doubt whether Sititi will amke it this year. 6, and 10 with 9 perhaps in the squad I can see.

    @KiwiMurph Really hope he isn't in the team. Dreadful at international level.

    Really was prophetic him dropping the ball coming out in the tunnel

    No! That didn't happen did it?

    100% happened.

    Loooool

    And that's what Shields and TJ did when it happened.

    I always enjoy your reluctance to ever select a new player

    'Perhaps 9 in the squad' who are these other 9s making the squad over Ratima haha?

    @mariner4life Mostly agree. But the gap in class at First Five was as wide as the Grand Canyon.

    Yeah Cameron was the worst player on the park for me. Had an absolute shocker.

    Barrett, Moorby and Perenara also had games to forget. Probably a few more but I’m too disappointed haha

    But, the Canes worked out how to beat it, play straight and hard.

    If only the Blues could play that way they'd have a chance.
