That was one of the very few times I've seen J.Savea have a good work rate through a whole game, if he could play like that every match he'd be an incumbent on the wing for the Canes, but unfortunately he tends to be too lazy on most occasions.
Shakespeare summed up this performance well: “But soft! What sight through yonder tackle breaks? It is the beast, and Julian is the one!”

Going for the corner was absolutely the right call.
Whether it's normal time or golden point, you want to be in the best position to win the game. That was the opportunity.
How they try and score is a another story, quick ball and up the midfield would be a better idea due to our known weakness trying to score tight forward tries.
Put Jordie in the pocket for a droppie or keep phasing.

Without passenger Prinsep I thought we were much improved physically. Of the dreaded trio (Blackwell, JGB & Prinsep) I think he's the weakest so it's noticeable when someone else plays in his place.
I thought Scrafton had a good game too, lots of physical carries. But Holland seems to have a hard on for subbing off whichever lock partners Blackwell.
I hope IWL is in soon.

Reilly was really good. He hasn't a lot of fans among the Ferners but we have to admit he had a flawless afternoon.
Have always thought O'Reilly was a good hooker, has good pace too.

Scrafton is our best lock, Blackwell should be the one subbed off during a match... yeah, hope IWL does return very soon, for me our best locking combo would be Scrafton/IWL.

Just in case you have forgotten this is one of the reasons why

He did his 5 weeks, people should move on, it only becomes a problem if he repeats it again.

@nzbloke His line-out throwing can be very dodgy.

That's going back to 2019... has he done anything since August 2020 ?

The same goes for any hooker
-
@nzbloke I see he has at least one fan on the Fern.

Evil Bstad Brenton Tarrant has not murdered anyone since March 2019. Thankfully he won't get a chance to repeat it again but that does not make it all good.
