    Well he already accidentally selected Sititi instead of Sotutu, and now he has to act like it was his idea all along....

    Sotutu showing his true colours with his instagram post. Suck up your non selection and be better.
    . You’ve shown him he was right for not selecting you. Mentally weak

    Crazy that people are now to the point of defending the decision of not selecting Sotutu and one of their main things to back up their point is using his instagram caption after winning a final and his apparent ‘mentally weak’ mindset when the guy dominated other elite professional athletes all season long.

    It’s a fucking instagram caption. For all we know he’s referring to the Blues being the ‘most hated’. Yikes. I can’t believe what I’m reading on all platforms. It’s clear as day he was robbed of a spot in the 32 selected.

    Hope he somehow makes it into the Rugby Championship 36 and continues to absolutely kill it(if he’s given the chance).

    And is involved in the game almost 100% more than Blackadder.

    Assume that is when Bladder is actually playing?

    To me this explanation makes the most sense. Otherwise what is he trying to say? He's most hated? Just weird. It will only take one or two injuries and he's back in the squad, either at the RC or EOYT. If he's passed over in that eventuality we will know that the new mob are lying

    Could it in fact just be a typo or poor spelling? He spilt his coffee on his notebook?

    Only if Hoskins makes the RC squad and Sititi gets dropped

    Basically that he just needs to continue to do what he's doing - that his game is improved but he just needs to keep at it - they recognise he has points of difference to his game that other loosies don't bring. That he has been given a lot of feedback and pretty adamant that he's very close.

    What he's doing, being the best 8 in the country clearly isn't working, otherwise he'd be in the team and not the young impact player from the Chiefs.

    Smells a bit PR speak to me.

    From Two Cents Rugby channel.
    Hoskins scored way more tries and assists and good passing.
    Sotutu is also better in turnovers.
    Far less tackles than the others (though Jacobson shouldn't be in there because he was 7)

    Aligns with the comment on his work on both sides of the ball.
    I think they think he shirks the defensive work.
    According to this guy Blues made marginally less tackles than the Chiefs overall in the season. Can't vouch for his numbers.

    Blue line is tackles per game.(Sotutu lowest)
    Orange line is missed tackles (Sotutu highest)
