Has anyone done a deep dive on Sititi's defence? He's a brilliant young player, who will be in the team for years, his running game is excellent, he's good over the ball, and he certainly has the x-factor, but how good is his tackling? Seems like an area he can improve in. I would back him to go up a level.

Rieko Ioane had to clean up so much shit ball, and managed to quickly recycle. Got a few hospital passes!

People don’t appreciate just how solid Rieko is in defense and how much crap he has to deal with. Not enough appreciation

@KiwiInLondon Great hit from him at 50 minutes that spilled the ball. Nice low tackle from Sititi.

@KiwiInLondon Yeah, because of our wide and flat play, he has to hit a shitload of rucks too.

@Bones Yeah, that was just a poor kick all round. He should have taken the ball into contact and setup another attack when we had them on the rack. The execution of the kick was poor too. Crappy play. That guy makes a lot of mistakes.
I just don't get the free pass he gets for (fairly frequent to be fair) miracle tries when he surely costs us more than 5 points a game from dismal or brainless play. On defence and attack.

Shit I like this new coaching group. They seem to know what they’re doing after all.
Some of you guys should read back what you write during the games.Coaching the ABs is a results based business,
Win you will be a hero , lose you will be the opposite,
And It’s never been any different
There was similar negativity with Henry and Hansen at times and they took us through our most successful era .

It was a long time ago, but the difference being I don't recall injury being their best selector.
