    How the hell can you play two games in a weekend and still resemble the Kung Fu Panda in silhouette?

        I used to go to the same gym as Piri and Neemia. It was definitely no surprise that they were two players who would always struggle with fitness. Was always frustrating watching them muck around, and to a certain extent, waste some of the talent that they had.

        Was a stark contrast between those two and Tana and Rodders.

          @Toddy and yet it seems Tialata is now a bit of a power lifter. Or just a beast in the gym.

            You were wise not to. That piece did a disservice to NZ in my opinion. Made them lookalike whiney losers. Boo-hoo it's not fair sort of thing. The actual quotes from any players were fine, it was the "journalism" around it that stank the place out.

                      Well that should distract from Daggs last line of defence effort last week.

                        @Bones Yeah, funnily enough a girl from work was showing me a video of an ex All Black doing deadlifts at the gym and it turned out to be Tialata. I hardly recognised him. He'd trimmed down heaps and looked fitter than I'd ever seen him.

                          Sumo has tweeted Jordie at 15 and a mention of a lot of Canes in the backline. I'm guessing that is Laumape and Savea. A shootout between Rieko and Fekitoa for the 23 shirt I guess (and Naholo but sounds like he might not be fit?)

                              On Fekitoa. Quite a few seem to be of the thought he blows a lot of try scoring opportunities by not passing. Is this an actual thing, or just perceived? I get frustrated with his indecisiveness with ball in hand at times, but it's generally when he's got a good d line in front of him. He seems pretty good at putting others away when a try is on from memory.

                                @Bones well the last game on this very tour he played he absolutely butchered a try in the first few minutes by not drawing and passing but instead crabbing sideways keeping ball in hand

                                      Sumo has tweeted Jordie at 15 and a mention of a lot of Canes in the backline. I'm guessing that is Laumape and Savea. A shootout between Rieko and Fekitoa for the 23 shirt I guess (and Naholo but sounds like he might not be fit?)

                                        On Fekitoa. Quite a few seem to be of the thought he blows a lot of try scoring opportunities by not passing. Is this an actual thing, or just perceived? I get frustrated with his indecisiveness with ball in hand at times, but it's generally when he's got a good d line in front of him. He seems pretty good at putting others away when a try is on from memory.

                                        My thoughts of his weakness , he runs bloody hard with the ball tucked under one arm , not your classical midfielder with the ball in both hands in front of him , and often when its time to pass , it seems to take him a while to get balanced to get the pass away, and its often opportunity lost .

                                          @taniwharugby I agree i'd have him in the 23 too and I think his weakness in attack is overblown at times - but that's not to say the weakness doesnt exist.
