Hurricanes v Blues

@gt12 I don’t think it was. Paps was still holding on when the player was tackled. If he doesn’t release and plays at the ball it’s a penalty. It was close but he still had time to release before he ripped the ball.
In my opinion a tackler shouldn’t have to wait to be told to release by the ref. It certainly doesn’t happen at every tackle situation.

We saw the same thing with Nonu for years though - would just phone it in for Super, and then smash it at International level.
Irrelevant, as SBW's not Nonu. If anything SBW was less effective at test level than Super, and at this rate if he is picked it would be in the place of a more deserving player.
ha ha ha. So, just to be clear, you don't think discussing the attributes of a midfielder who doesn't perform in Super is relevant. Righto, my bad.
Yep, your bad, both for first suggesting SBW should be picked even though he has been ordinary because he'll miraculously somehow get better in black like a totally different player, and for the terrible attempt at a strawman argument above.
