3 Codie Taylor
3 Richie Mo'unga
2 Sevu Reece
1 Rieko Ioane
1 Damian McKenzie

Sam Whitelock-very impressive to still be up there (second) when he didn't play all 3-Perhaps points should be averaged over games?

Doesn't this uncle Tonga and Fiji too?

Include? Did not know, perhaps it is mentioned in the thread somewhere but did not see it...

Under Shag, Cane got left out of the starting line-up of a WC semi-final.

Yeah, the one bloke who would have caused England serious problems from the word go.

That loss still rankles with me - and not just for the Cane omission. Some of the dumbest play I've seen from an AB team for years, mainly from the senior players

It’s taken me a long time to accept that Sam Whitelock might be a decent captain after his facepalm to Farrell late on, which effectively ended what little glimmer of hope we might have had of pinching that match

I don't blame him for that - it was a ridiculous intervention by the referee.

Farrell was being a prick. But he bit the bait

[gt12]

Pretty much 1/3 of all of the AB metres earned from these two boys.

But yay, they were awesome. I can't wait to see how Akira goes Vs the boks. With this form, I think the boks will get a shock

Entirely predictable, though.

Exactly. We could have got an extra 10m closer because of Farrell's behaviour and instead we got a penalty against us and were back in our half without the ball very soon thereafter.

That's not in contention. It's the bullshit reversal from Owen that's the issue.

I agree. But in the current climate the retaliator almost always gets pinged. So we can argue but at the end of the day he needs to keep his discipline there
