Liking Sititi doing what Ardie used to. Some glimpses of old Ardie in Ardie too.
Taylor is playing really well this season and despite early scrum wobbles, Williams is going great guns.
Jordan is as expected, unfortunately.
He kicked away a good chance to run near the end of the first half but he's been alright no?
Jordan only cares if it's on for Jordan. Boks knock on in our 22 and he doesn't even try and regather. Gets put in space against Kolisi and makes nothing of it for the team.

@LatsToTheMax snap again

Scrum issues on Lomax side. Suspect Codie got new plan when off for HIA.
We have come back well after first two.

Kolisi having an absolute mare, he is such an overrated player. If you discount his (personal) backstory, he is just an average Currie Cup player and no more
I think he's great when the game is slow and there are lots of breaks. Speed it up and he's not nearly so effective. The pace of the World Cup Final was perfect for him.

Pollard hasn't done much
Expect him to be subbed soon

Has Telea done anything right yet?
At this level he looks average.
Harsh. He hasn't quite been at his best so far this season, but 2023? He was anything but average last season and won world newcomer of the year.

I keep looking for that outside option. He just doesn’t have it.

So question, if LM was still there, would we still be in these games at HT? Two tests in succession it's seems too coincidental...
Whether we win or lose is irrelevant but we certainly look more dangerous on attack.

I still think he's playing the wrong side.

LM?

R Ioane has to get passes to stick no matter how bad. Proctor is breathing down his neck IMO. Suddenly 13 is a very competitive spot esp if Big L. returns (who would have enjoyed this sort of game)..

Not that much difference in my eyes
Will be interesting if the ABs can score any tries this half, and especially in the last 20

Aah.
Seeing a different attacking system definitely
No chip-kicks... Nothing outrageously sexy so far on attack, but no chip-kicks.

yup Sititi an upgrade on Finau.
