    @kev Rieko has done a lot more than just "run" tonight

      I’m loving Reiko back at 11… just suits him

      Proctor has much better distribution and handling skills and Reiko can just run.

      Actually Rieko has been passing /offloading quite a bit from wing this game!

        Rieko has played well, but he's far below what he used to be. Now just a solid winger.

          Man, the French like to target the head. The officials need to be tougher on them.

            I disagree, I reckon he’s probably a better all round player now. As long as he still has the pace…

              I'm suspecting it's not the pace which has a big drop off (although yet to test that clearly tonight) but the acceleration (or is it reaction speed) seems slower...

                        He's clearly slower than before
                        Don't mind him, just think Clarke in form and Tangitau will offer more

                          He is better on the wing currently than Proctor is playing at centre, based on the last 2 games but who is to say Proctor is playing better at centre than Rieko would?

                              I don’t know… he’s not quite at the Julian Savea stage yet where he’ll head back in towards traffic just so he doesn’t have to sprint because he’s too fat

                                Certainly helps when none of the French forwards keep their feet on the drive šŸ˜‰

                                      Naaaaah don't feel like it. Should have had 15 turnovers in the first game to justify his spot in the team tbh.

                                        He got his arms all the way underneath that ball carrier.

                                        The French forward off his feet and just collapsed on the ball carrier certainly was penalisable.
