Frizell gone well? I have not seen much of him.

I think you answered your own question.

Have missed a bit (effing microsoft has fucked up my services subscription) this half, but that was a lousy forwards effort.

Not many carrying meters from the forwards

Sotutu with 13 & Tuipulotu with 8 are the best. Really low compared to normal

Bower I think literally has no stats. We cant have a LH prop who only scrums.

Edit: He made 7 tackles and missed 2. Hasn’t touched the ball by the looks of the stats. Nothing.

On the positive side, I'd hope this is another step towards getting some new ideas coaches in the ABs

FTFY

Mmmm can’t see it

I'm hoping for razor next year!

Me too salvation

[nostrildamus]

shocked by the 28 minute maul-wonder if the AB fwds stood up too quickly thinking it was won. Has Patty T been physical enough?
liked JB and big boot v useful.

[Frank]

Has Sotutu played a really good game in black yet? Or just adequate?

[hydro11]

Exactly the game we needed. The last 20 of that half was very poor. Let's hope we come out with more physicality.

[Yeetyaah]

We just lack physicality. Don't think we took the threat serious enough and took the piss with the starting lineup a bit.

[African Monkey]

@nepia How many chances does the guy need? He doesn't cut it at test level and we have far better options.

Play has died around Reiko too much.

When your only option is to pass to Bridge this seems a good outcome to me

[TJ]

Does anyone else think Mils always says a lot of words without actually saying anything? It's really frustrating.

[gt12]

George Bridge: made one tackle, missed two.

Zero run meters. He gets shit because he deserves it.

[Duluth]

Wish we had the Papali’i/Jacobson/Ioane trio out there

But I assume he set up three tries?

yeh I asked as I wondered if I was biased as I don't see him in top 2 sixes in country..

[African Monkey]

@gt12 Another one who shouldn't be anywhere near the test lineup.

It's a very average lineup out there.

[gt12]

Blackadder and Frizell are basically the same type of player (Blackadder is probably much better).

We are getting no run meters out of either but very accurate tackling. We can’t have a loose forward trio with two tacklers who font get run meters.

[taniwharugby]

@toddy yea Fiji doing what they need to disrupt this soft AB pack, meaning our backs aren't getting any decent ball.

In saying that we should still be playing better than this shit.we’re is a game plan or progression from last year .soft forward effort let’s hope COVID keeps SA out of the RC .
