@tim assume Ardie was unavailable due to his mumps?
-
@taniwharugby Yeah. Guess he was available for the Wales game though?

@nepia said in AB's v Wales:
@Rancid-Schnitzel I've used it for years - you're talking about arguments everyone on the Fern uses, we're all hypocritical in that respect. Also, where did I label anyone a hater? I said there were posters whinging about him.
Sure, if you use that argument then everyone else must. As I said, you bitching about knights riding in to defend a player no matter what is absolutely hilarious.
If you want to pretend I'm somehow worse than everyone else on the Fern then go for your life, although, if I hadn't have mentioned BB's performance you likely wouldn't have bothered responding.
@Tim I think he's actually all good for once isn't he?

@gt12 said in AB's v Wales:
... they also had about three examples of shepherding/our defenders being taken out, where the attacking player then ran exactly through that space. ...
I mentioned that at half time. They were constantly running shields into the defence

Didn’t one of the decent props from Canterbury or Ta$man declare for Tonga or Samoa this year?
NMS
-
@tim some of them were available werent they, just not selected?
-
@taniwharugby I don’t think so. Who are you suggesting?
-
@tim Mounga and TKB?
Question is...assuming Reiko cant win Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year, does he get the 'bigger' prize of player of the Year?
edit scratch Mounga, he broke something...
-
I enjoyed watching us more in this game than most others this year. I think mainly because we had so little ball their wasn't time for multiple stupid errors.
Good win considering our 9, 10 and 12 were rubbish. Our kicking game was shit, so Wales found it easy to pin us back.
Awesome defense though (TJP aside) our forwards fucked theirs up. Then Ioane did something awesome and we scored. That was pretty much the key, defense, discipline and Ioane.
Loved seeing our 7 man scrum easily handle them.
Decent end to an ordinary year.

@taniwharugby Mo'unga broke his hand in the first minute of the game v France XV.
-
@stargazer yep I edited my post above 5 mins ago...
-
@taniwharugby Yup, and I added that it was his hand.
-
@taniwharugby TKB was unavailable for the final game, I think.
-
Wayne Barnes has absolutely no idea what's going on at rucks. I don't know why I'm being specific. He's a dreadful referee.
Also; how is Ofa an All Black? Seriously.

@antipodean ofa has done a great job this year and deserves his place
