Fuck sake Sky. Sort your shit out.

Proctor reminded me of a young Rico Gear playing centre for the Blues back in the day.

I get what you mean, I was trying to work out who he reminds me of .

[BerniesCorner]

Aumua is pressing to start
Sititi needs to start. Savea 8 , Sititi 6
Ratima starts, wonderful to have quick ball.
Proctor starts
Ioane moves to the wing
Clarke is hungry good to see.

Our supply of props is awesome.

For the Razor knockers this team is so much better organized than the previous era. Kept their structure.

[frugby]

No hurry with Sititi... probably done enough to take the #20 jersey though.

So 47 - 5 in the end. Best part was to see the newbies do so well.

Best part was walking out of the "Kangaroo & Kiwi", and some mehican seems to be setting up a sausage sizzle on the sidewalk. As the bar turns into a shit disco. Friday, 21:40.

Hotham will be happy with his first game.

Likewise Proctor with a superb game. Along with ALB.

Newell is limited apart from the scrum. Shame that he and Tosi can't be combined

[BerniesCorner]

A passing center omg

[Bovidae]

I will read comments later but Clarke starts ahead of Telea against Arg. A big difference between the speed of Ratima's passing compared to Hotham's.

Sititi looked like he is made for this but tougher opponents to come.

Ardie not a shake on what he was last year

What a load of bollocks. He is doing fine and by the end of the year he will be even better !!!!

The only thing you can really take from a game like this is players who shit the bed or look ineffective.

And I don't agree with Marshall that Ethan looked good. Busy yes.

@No-Quarter
Jacobson 3 runs 2 meters
Blackadder 6 runs 38 meters

Who struggled???

[Stag]

@Toddy
Jacobson 3 runs 2 meters
Blackadder 6 runs 38 meters
And they had virtually the same tackle stats.
🤷‍♂️

[African Monkey]

@antipodean He's a bit of a lightweight at this level isn't he? Like, he gets around and tries to attack everything, but half the time he got folded at breakdown time and was left falling over, and he falls off tackles by over committing. He did a few good things out there but most of the time I thought he was rather ineffective, and that was against Fiji.

I fear for him if he plays against the bigger packs, not through lack of endeavor of course, but I think he gets hammered against the bigger packs.

[Stag]

@Stag but I would play Blackadder at 6

tackle stats

jacobson 8 and 1 miss
niggles 7 and 4 misses is not the same

[Stag]

@ploughboy fair. But on the flip side Blackadder was clearly far more effective on attack. Two meters for an All Black loose forward against Fiji, really???

[Stag]

@African-Monkey if Blackadder is a light weight against Fiji with 36 meters from 6 runs what the hell does that make Jacobson with 2 running meters for the whole game. It’s quite clear a number of people on the fern can’t stand Blackadder and will never accept his efforts regardless of what he does.
