Hungus Masaga was a better player than Reece
nah, I dont buy that.
Reece might be a douche, but seems to have a very good grasp on the game and reads things pretty well, along with being pretty good with ball in hand, probably a bit stronger than Masaga, less hungus too, similar defenders but I think Reece is better at breakdowns than Masaga ever was as well.

Masaga had that ability to sniff out tries (a bit like Jordan). He was the polar opposite to Bridge.

It's an absolutely absurd take. Defence is 50% of the game. Masaga had Roger Randle level tackling avoidance skills.

This would work much better if Reece wasn't the other player in the discussion.

8 – Ben Smith (19)I thought McCaw was invisible to the refs in games against Oz? How did he manage to get awarded 11 tries?

I demand the shit kiwi one!Speak for yourself I’m finding it fascinating learning about Andrew Calloway.
With the amount of Rugby I don’t watch these insights are invaluable.

Cue the Rennie whinge
Hopefully a bigger whinge when we smash them.
