    Sean Wainui has always been utterly shithouse at 13, so why the fuck was he starting instead of Nankivell or Tupaea?

      When Nareki scored his first try, just, after nearly being run down by Lowe, I was thinking why the fuck is TJ knocking one out over him? Well, I got that thought 100% wrong.

          I was in the kitchen when he scored that try and it was like TJ was standing next to me, I had to turn the volume down when I rewinded it and watched the real time try. 😉

          Also, I know you're lying when you include the words stunning, brilliance and Gatland in the same sentence and claim someone actually said that.

                @stargazer Thanks, should've seen that. Still, Nankivell would've been a much better option.

                        I’m still trying to understand why, with only that much time left, they decided to kick for goal, knowing that it would still be a two score game.

                        Something’s a bit rotten at the Chiefs; we’ve been on the slide to the worst NZ side since Rennie left (is there one big signing since he left?) and I’m starting wonder if last year was rock bottom.

                        Honestly, would that team come close to another NZ team?

                        12 behind kick pen 9 behind game then becomes converted try plus penalty to win.

                          I thought Frizell went well too. I do like how he plays.

                            I've just seen the Nareki highlights. Some disgraceful defence.

                            No half competent team should give up that many straight points to go from a great position to well beaten.

                            We're fucked.

                              How did Weber get captaincy after being so average last year?

                              His defense was shocking in this game. His passing wasn't that great either.

                                    I don't understand how him being tackled is mitigation for that. What...so it would have been better if he hit him in the head?

                                    Simply because his arm only went up when he was tackled around the ankles and falling forward toward an on coming player. It was instinct to protect his head. These rules are all about player safety but a player isnt allowed to protect themselves from potential injury. Ioane ran into his arm not the arm running into Ioane.

                                        Do you mean at Super level? He had a dip in form at international level. The Tongan needs to transfer his super form to test level.

                                          @nepia I think even his biggest fans like me acknowledge he hasn’t shown anywhere near the same form in the black jersey and was put in stark contrast to akira when he came on
