@Windows97 said in All Blacks vs Wallabies I:

It's not so much this player, or that player but as a team they crumble under pressure and are unable to maintain consistency throughout the game.

it's astonishing the difference between this mental toughness and that of the Crusaders, particularly under Robertson. Their whole hallmark was mental toughness and playing championship minutes. We are not seeing that with this AB side at all.

Maybe this is Clive without Martin; Razor without Sam?

@Chris is Chay Finaki joining ABs ? That's the noise

I have not heard that mate.

[george33]

@Chris ok u would no, but rumors are floating around, cheers

[george33]

@george33 so he has joined the squad confirmed

[Grooter]

@george33 you were right George, it is bizarre tho as Fihaki wouldn't even start at the Landers these days 😂

Well played sir you're right again. You cop a lot of flak on here, but at least you share what you hear.

Gee I wonder why Fihaki got called up......

Rumour is Chay Fihaki is called in

Good. The squad was missing a Crusader or two.

[george33]

@antipodean as the results say.

[1kiwi]

What does Fihaki's call up mean for someone like Stevenson?

[KiwiMurph]

Fihaki had a good season but it's hard to shake the feeling it's a hell of a lot easier to get called up if you are a Crusader than if you play for another team

[Bovidae]

Or Narawa. It's not like the squad is missing someone who can play fullback...

Good from you George

[george33]

@1kiwi yeah think Stephenson is just about gone to League, unfortunately

[george33]

@Chris what's your opinion on Chris ? definitely got potential.

[Yeetyaah]

Nah man Chay Fihaki? Razor is fucking tweeeeaking.

[reprobate]

As long as he doesn't play, I don't really care. You gotta say robertson couldn't give a fuck about public opinion though.

That you have to make an effort on both sides of the ball?

because he's got similar dimensions to Jordie (102kg over 192cm) and plays 12 unlike Stevenson?
