    Him and Patrick have been huge on defence. Special mention to Robinson too

      Ioane dropping the ball could prove costly. Too worried about how big his celebration was going to be?

      No?

          Those hands for the Tele'a try were something else. One second the ball was tucked, split second later sweetly across placed in front of tele'a.

            This time wasting is a joke.

            @Tim totally agree the time wasting been ridiculous, also that last lineout should have been played..went over the line before the siren went..Nonu had every right to question it.

              Pat T putting his hand up for the RWC squad. As is Barrett, I love completion for places!

                Can see his future is at 13 when he starts to slow down a bit.

                  @Steven-Harris siren is not official time, that's why the ref was asking his mic'd up time keeper

                    Yes, but would have rather we ran it. Stormers were out on their feet.

                      @Kirwan He has been good but 3 yards from the line and he should not drop the ball.

                        6 trys in 2 games, I’ll cut him some slack.

                              @Kirwan I agree with Patrick and especially Robertson but for me Akira noticeably lacks impact on D. Seems to never get a good shoulder on, more of a grabbing motion or trying to hold people up. A couple of times players have gone through him.

                                  He was in a tackle reaching out to try and score the try - FFS there's some hard markers on here ... it wasn't like he dropped it cold with no defenders (like Cully and Jonah did in that match against the Tahs IIRC).

                                        Great steal Akira right on halftime.

                                        Him and Patrick have been huge on defence. Special mention to Robinson too

                                        I like that big ginger

                                        He's getting better playing consistently too.

                                        Yeah, his play has caught up with the hype I feel - although I'd still like to see Papali'i have a run at 6.

                                          @Kirwan He has been good but 3 yards from the line and he should not drop the ball.

                                          He was in a tackle reaching out to try and score the try - FFS there's some hard markers on here ... it wasn't like he dropped it cold with no defenders (like Cully and Jonah did in that match against the Tahs IIRC).

                                          Haha oh well shit good on him then! No international winger worth their salt has EVER scored a try in the tackle at the level below tests. We should be congratulating him on such a great knock on.
