Soft.
I'll trust you on that. You're certainly the expert

What's the go with Ta'avao?

Some uuuuugleeee moments in that game from Barretts, but mostly great.
Poor Rieko, just not working for him.
SBW providing a headache, think he might have slipped ahead of Crotty to start, but Crotty will be great coming off the bench. Or vice versa. Goodhue will be lucky to see anything past the pools.
Tuipulotu dropsies, happy if he gets that out of the way now, otherwise nice.
Weber is a great halfback against the minnows. TJ is great off the bench.
Read needs a rest.

Not sure. He's probably the one guy that we can afford to lose. And Rieko of course.

:I’m not too concerned about the handling so much in this one. Our structures and support play and pace was very good
Yeah it's not as though the entire team forgot how to handle overnight. Canada just didn't have enough possession to drop it too.
Might be more worried if our QF was in Oita, but it's not.

Looked to me like Moli left the field injured.
Looked like cramp for Moli.

Interesting comments from Reado about Mr Hugh Middity.

He started...
Are you getting mixed up with Ta'avao?

:We ain't scoring that against anyone who makes the Quarters
We’re not playing the quarters right now.
Hah I immediately thought yo'd quoted Chris.
Fuck off Bones

Job done for the AB's. 5 in the bag.
But what a weird game to watch. NZ seemed to be trying to play at ultra-high speed. Maybe seeing if they could take something from the Japanese play-book that proved successful against Ireland?
But conditions definitely didn't look helpful. That's probably more unforced errors in one game than the AB's have made all season.But you can't argue with a 63 point victory.

Moli played the full game. Ta’avao, Laulala and Tuungafasi played 1/3 of the game each. Ta’avao subbed at 26. Laulala at 52 and Tuungafasi played the rest. Think it was strategic as Tuungafasi replaced Laulala (17 for 18)

@Billy-Webb a feature of the AB team the past couple of years has been poor handling. They've upped the tempo now though and a lot more are sticking, with probably the same amount being spilled.
