Funaki was solid again

Topeni didn't look out of place on debut

@Duluth said in Auckland MOTM v Waikato:

Segner & XTH. Funaki had some good touches particularly his kicking.. I’ll ignore the defence when he was forced onto the wing

That's what I went for.

Love, Jordie and Holland.

Patty T, Vaa'i and Holland. Patty for an outstanding game filling in for injury, Vaa'i for stepping up at 6 and Holland who so far seems to be stepping into test match rugby seamlessly.

Astute selections

Given that you chose 3 locks (sort of), and are commending the selection of 3 locks by others, I’m going to hazard a guess that you were a lock at some point?

Only in an absolute emergency.

I skipped numbers 4 & 5 in my descent to the real low numbers.

Taylor, Jordie, Jordan my top 3

3 of the 4 debutants looked good. Kirifi not able to make an impact but would give him another go.

Papalii, Lam, Ioane.

Sotutu, Tuipolutu, then I voted for Riccitelli.

Eklund and AJ Lam v good.

Went Riccitelli Dalton and Lam but was very difficult - so many players in contention this week

Segner, Beehre, Dalton

Sotutu, Fin Christie and Renata.

Obviously the knives are out for Sotutu from people in the south, but I felt he carried really strongly (unless I was watching a different game)

Renata got a meat pie so he can have one, and Fin Christie looked lively enough when he came on even if the game was gone, so he can have one.

@voodoo said in Blues MOTM v Brumbies:

Am I mental for thinking that Christie was mostly really good? His pass was crisp and his decision making seemed quick. A couple of howlers eg the charge down, but mostly pretty fairly solid?

Yeah I thought he had a decent first half, but those howlers were pretty howly.

Very very howly

@Duluth said in Blues MOTM v Hurricanes:

Beehre was very good. Huge work rate on defence

He's very good. Probably my MOTM.

Gave one to Riccitelli and Tele'a just for the try alone.

Very difficult to find 3. Clarke played well.
