    One of the most dominant breakdown performances by an SR team for quite some time. Sensational at times

    Yep, and I was keeping an eye on Ethan Blackadder (always been a huge fan), and I ask is there a busier player, who actually does nothing of any worth? He was there but a second or 2 behind being useful all game!

    The emperor has always been nude, but I hope you're not questioning a selection decision by those who know better than you.

      I'm not at all worried about his selection. He'll ne injured for all but 1 or 2 AB games this season

        Facetiousness aside, that fucks up getting an effective loosie proper embedding time in the ABs. It was a real issue last year, andas I pointed out above, can razor stop being a fucking chicken and embrace players he doesn't know personally that also don't have a ton of caps?

          Was more than evident tonight. Industrious but that's about it. Very ineffective most of the time.

              Well I really hope so, but think my hopes will be dashed. The Canes game yesterday was a great example of what a balanced 6/7/8 unit can do to an opposition.

                      Some ABs looked very fucking average out there.
                      Williams miss on Patafilo will be fun to watch in the review.
                      Those Moana loosies were great, Faiilagi was a machine.

                        Awesome game from MP they might be really hard to beat at home after this win, confidence from this win away.
                        Crusaders well you fuckers did not turn up
                        It had a taste of Last year for me.
                        Need to kick some arses, some players should pay when selection time comes around going forward.

                            Right down to the captain looking like an NPC player at best.

                            Like you say, shades of last year, pretty ugly.

                                    He's scored more tries than someone though so is heaps better man.

                                    Did he trip over scoring them too ?

                                      21st minute - how the fuck does Gardner come up with "two blue off side" when he's clearly behind other players?

                                        Yep, and I was keeping an eye on Ethan Blackadder (always been a huge fan), and I ask is there a busier player, who actually does nothing of any worth? He was there but a second or 2 behind being useful all game!

                                        The emperor has always been nude, but I hope you're not questioning a selection decision by those who know better than you.

                                        I quite often question why players are selected, but as always I figure they have reasons for doing it.
                                        But in reality, I don't think Blackadder has been this ineffective previously (my opinion), I don't know if has lost a bit of speed, or simply got confused what his role is now, I even thought Gardiner was reasonably generous to him on the number of times he looked to be close to coming in from side at ruck time.

                                          Awesome game from MP they might be really hard to beat at home after this win, confidence from this win away.
                                          Crusaders well you fuckers did not turn up
                                          It had a taste of Last year for me.
                                          Need to kick some arses, some players should pay when selection time comes around going forward.

                                          Agreed Chris. McLeod and Aumua should be sent to club rugby after being totally outclassed by Toala & Patafilo, 1 of Hannah or Barrert should make way for your best lock Shalfoon, George Bower great guy but he doesn't need to be starting again anytime soon. Hotham probably better off as impact at this stage bring back Preston. Lio-Willie obviously back at 8, the young fella Anderson? Fed to the Wolves that are Savea and Faiilangi by Penney. Tough assignment awaits over in Fiji
