Our new blindside looked good

Also, his brother actually had an awesome game, clearing up lots of poor ball, defending well and not dropping the ball when scoring his try.

Had to clean up so much crap

Peranara is shit now. Barrett was a ghost at 10, and Laumape has always been shit at 12 and putting him in the all blacks is just stupid. TJ Faiane is so much better at the same.size.

Apparently, there's a new rule in the AB Coaching Manual that you can't play the same 12/13 for more than 2 games in a row.

Based on what?

[Tim]

Jacob Pierce is so much better than Scott Barrett.

Have him on the right wing and the Jordie and Beauden battling it out for 15.

Decisions and ability to make space for your outsides to exploit.

[Tim]

@Yeetyaah based on watching the games and the distinction of the all blacks every time he starts.

[Siam]

@Kirwan I happened to notice all that live. He popped out of a contact, looked dazed, then went round the ruck and stumbled, trying to hang on to someone I think.

Gone for the year I'm picking

[ACT Crusader]

Our forward pack was a bit scrappy. We didn’t look settled at all.

There was physicality from both sides and I think the difference was the penalties we gave away in our own half and Hodge made us pay.

Goal kicking still very critical.

Fucking terrible from our 9, but ill admit that the coaches should be given a kick in the ass for taking Akira off.

It’s like when they pulled Kaino against the Lions - didn’t they learn from that?

[Yeetyaah]

@Tim your bias towards Blues region players isn't going to help.

His best game for quite some time. I'll give Fozzie some credit for that.

[Yeetyaah]

@antipodean at M10 level?

[pakman]

MOTM Dave Rennie.

I’m a big Fan of the good TJ, not sure he’s an AB 12

[Tim]

@Yeetyaah straight idiot. AB backs always struggle with his shit distribution and running away from support

[Yeetyaah]

@Tim Faiane vs Laumape I meant. Basing it off Faiane at M10 level?

Blues are the new Cantabs

[KiwiMurph]

TJ Faiane is not a test level 12.

Neither is Laumape.

[Yeetyaah]

@Kirwan also a fan of Faiane.
