<p>Everything he did well on Saturday night was World Class. I know he is an erratic, enthusiastic player that tends to have the odd brain explosion but I feel he is starting to hit some form. His passing is a lot more crisp than it was at the beginning of the season and that allows Barrett to stand flatter where he is more dangerous. His running game is sublime and he did more than any other NZ halfback this round, so no I am not joking.</p> -

<p>4 missed tackles and 4 handling errors is not the standard of an All Black Halfback.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>2 of those handling errors were at crucial times when the Canes were trying to get back into the match.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Take your blinkers off and watch another team for a change.</p> -

<p>You would be such a great lawyer.</p>

<p>Andy Ellis is the most boring player in NZ. Brad Webber did sweet f all, so did Cruden. Aaron Smith had a quiet game, no surprise due to the red card in the first half. </p>

<p>You guys are classic. </p> -

Who cares if he is boring... Read mccaws book, he's the most boring man in NZ<br><br>
We are picking a form 15, not a team of entertainers <br><br>
If rugby was won on entertainment value, then I guess the canes may have won a few more titles aye. -

<p>Goodes, Franks, Rettalick, Fatialofa, Dixon, Cane, Read - They just ooze entertainment aye.</p>

<p>This is the form XV. A bit strange you didn't catch on as its mentioned in the title of this post.</p>

<p>Atleast Nige agrees with me re TJ.</p>

<p>I agree that Perenara played better than Weber/TKB. Smith didn't have a good game either. I don't know how "boring" can be related to how well a player plays, but I think Ellis had a good game.</p>

<p>Ellis could have shown a lot more considering his pack was dominating. Wouldn't say he was the form halfback of the week.</p>
