how have Love and Laukai looked so far?

Who the f is Laukai?

If you mean Lakai, he’s been solid. Love’s playing on the wing and he just scored.

sorry for typo yes Lakai, did hear about try on radio just meant in general. Perefota sounds up and down and as I type Love gets a second?!

Love in for another.

Move over Cam. Reuben Love is the new GOAT

booboo

Somewhat flattering ...

A double for Ruben Love. He should have been in the ABs at the start of the year.

Machpants

Fuck there is some dead weight in this squad, and dead brains in the tactics we are playing

DMac

Razor will certainly be bringing Mounga back.

Jordan might have to settle for wing at this rate. But it would be nice to have some speed on the wing.

Perofeta obviously

taniwharugby

def plenty to work on around decision making, particularly when to throw an off-load or kick passes, then there are the unforced errors, makes you wonder if the fitness levels are where they need ot be with such poor decisions as the game wears on

sparky

@booboo Ahead of Perofeta. Easily our second best attacking fullback behind Jordan and the best under the high ball.

I hope so, cos DMac ain't the answer. We'll see next three weeks of Beaudy can run the cutter with a bit more control

Im as disgusted as the next man, but do you blame him.

DMAC and Beaudy are playing like teenagers.

Man I want to see Love and Jordan together but Love at 15 and Jordan on the wing.

Love has "it".

Same as Roigard.

They pass the eye test.

Love could be thrown in at 10 or FB and he wouldnt let you down. Classy.

We need that effervescence in the team.

sparky

Finishes 64-19.

In attack, that will do.

In defence, very worrying signs.

Victor Meldrew

Positives:

Roigard's 1st Test since injury and he went OK
Aumua (except esrly throwing)
DMac's defence
Telea showing some form
Pat T's breakdown work
Wallace confirming he's starting XV material

Negatives

Poor defence
Lack of focus - particularity in second half
Scrum didn't dominate
Poor kick options - esp.DMAC
