MotM vs South Africa I
-
@Tim jeez tim, i dunno - he played okay and made less errors than usual, but he's not even top 6 for me... the tries were:
aaron smith tapping and kicking for ioane
NMS intercept with BB
BB cross kick. coles-nms-scott barrett
ioane breaking then coles-retallick (admittedly sbw ran a nice support line here)
BB skip pass to NMS
ofa t burrowing
alb breaking for sopoaga
taylor from a maul -
Ioane, Cane, Whitelock.
Smith a very unlucky fourth.

@Tim said in MotM vs South Africa I:
LOL, one vote for SBW who completely transformed the backline with his lines and physical impact.
Tim, Crucial's hacked your account.

@African-Monkey hah shit I could've! I meant fans, not players 😊
-
Cane, Whitelock, Ioane.
Wonder if it's time to start giving Cane closer to 80, if not 80, Ardies impact is lessening every week

SBW was solid I thought. Still not a well oiled combo with BB and Crotty though, can still hesitate
For MotM I thought Ione and Smith (who at one stage was just outrageous), most others excellent, locks and bench especially. Read was there when he needed to be, lineouts and tackles. Also marveled at Cole's magic awareness of where ball would be (but thought he has lost a bit of speed) and Taylor for his pressure when he came on. SB was great, Squire's cameo was wrecking ball material, showed heaps of bogan mongrel (is that bongrel?) Thought of BB as 3rd but he varied from incredible to good to why did he do that, so no.
Went for Cane, really important part of team, so he is my #3.
