          According to Mils on Rugby Pass's Shortball podcast, Franks went off as a straight substitution ("dragged") rather than anything injury related.

            Born in Timaru isn't he? How odd he feels like his team are a man down against a much better team, especially when his team are a man down. He's the kind of guy that perpetuates the dumb prop myth.

                    Born a Crusader, raised an Aucklander - he really didn't have a chance in life did he?

                      @tim another player looking for excuses for not being good enough and playing week in week out in a tournament that doesn't create skills to play at international level. Other way to look at it is if we keep saying then suddenly it will become the truth in many people's mind.

                                "The week before Ofa Tu'ungafasi put a shoulder to a head and that should have been a red card.

                                Wait. Why is the judicial officer decision correct when it exonerates the Frenchmen but he thinks the judicial officer decision was wrong when it exonerates Ofa T?

                                Is it coz he's Tongan? Bloody Samoan .....

                                      @cgrant nice to see a couple of token North islanders.

                                      I'm still perplexed as to why people think a world beating winger who's been nothing but ordinary at centre (at best) want to see him at centre. In test rugby.

                                        Bloody good on Hemopo if so. Seemed like NPC might be his limit, came out and bruised up the lions and hasn't looked back. I like his style, really plays above his weight and gets busy.

                                          And Hemopo has leapfrogged Franklin unless they also like him as a 6?
