      22 minutes, 24 points to reach? Feasible? After all George Bridge is playing and he's a creator..

      This is up there with ‘prime Frans Botha’ and ‘ Argentina playing friendlies’

              It's been obvious all season that Bridge is in terrible form. It's been obvious for a long while he is a very limited option. And yet Foster and Co. selected him on the Left Wing for the ABs. 🤬

              Fozzie's obviously looking for a no.2 for Jordie Barrett.

                  @machpants when he has supporting players to pass to there is no need. It’s called distribution and drawing & passing.

                  Isn't he a winger? The position that should be held by someone with actual footspeed? Or is the winger there to pass to someone faster?

                    Like when he’s one on one and he goes to ground?

                      Pace isn't what Foster looks for in a winger

                          That’s one of the issues, he wasn’t doing that in the first 30. Poor
