Geez, what a bs victim mentality here!!

Cantabs haven’t been that bad about Franks, a bit harsh.

[Bones]

@African-Monkey just wow, pretty happy to think you're rather unique and most blues fans aren't as under siege.

Nice comparison of Ioane to Bridge by the way, Bridge the absolute rookie makes a mistake and you're trying to pillory him for it....

It’s a good comparison as it reflects how the wingers went in a game where the forwards failed. One gets criticised and the other is just a rookie apparently.

When does the WC start again?

[Gunner]

Sheesh it’s getting hot in here.

Handbags at dawn should settle it aye fullas?

[Bones]

@Kirwan if you say so.

@African-Monkey What howler did Bridge make?

[Toddy]

Ran off his wing on defence opening the gap for the Boks to score in the Wellington test.

[Rugga13]

If Rieko wants to improve, he needs not look much further than George Bridge. Bridge just put simply, is a superior winger at present.

Hes hungry, hes always looking for work, he chases kicks like his life depends on it, and swallows every high ball that comes his way.

He does the simple things very well.

Sometimes when your star rises too fast you can become complacent and rest on your laurels. He needs to fight for his jersey, unfortunately his NPC game didnt show any signs of that.

Choosing to play rugby in an Alice band

[Chris B.]

@Toddy He's got Mo'unga defending the wing.

M4L - True - but, he hasn't done that for the ABs though has he?

[Toddy]

He's left Ritchie high and dry out there.

[Chris B.]

@Toddy What's he going to do?

The Boks have created a 3 on 2 - he's got to take the man he does.

[Toddy]

@Chris-B drift and pull the inside defenders across.

[Chris B.]

@Toddy Yeah - maybe - but, it's hardly a howler what he's done.

[Toddy]

@Chris-B yeah I don't think it's a howler. But I'm not sure what else AM can be referring to.

Don’t worry I’ve got a 500 word essay coming for how harsh some have judged Bridge on that play.

I think M4L is referring to the Alice band.

Broken record time 🙂

Does he cop that much criticism? I haven’t really noticed it. I have noticed a bunch of Cantabs (and Bones) getting super defensive about it tho.
