Blues vs Stormers
-
@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.

@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).

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.

@98blueandgold Yep, I noticed the Stormers hooker doing just that (going through him, I mean).

Making stuff up again? At least you are consistent

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.

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.

Settle down, posters are making out that he didn't give a shit - he was trying to score the try but the ball got knocked free.
No one has said he should be congratulated for it ....

Forward surely?

Mate read the post you quoted. Someone criticised him for dropping the ball in the motion of scoring a try. You cried about that being harsh marking and tried to say he did well to knock it on in the manner he did.
Congratulations on not dropping it cold Rieko!

@Machpants nope, had to throw it forward to go around it
