Super Rugby 2022
-
the Chiefs just don't have the innovative systems to elevate their under-talented players
-
@tim Who did Bryn Hall say were the favourites?
Seriously, what were Parsons' reasons for picking the Chiefs?

Listen to the pod!
Hall was very delicate on picking a favourite and ultimately went for the Blues.

I don't watch it often but it's not bad.
Parsons generally has interesting points. Hall is good too but is slightly restricted by being a current player
The host keeps out of their way.
Much better info than the other shitty sky rugby shows

It's the only rugby pod/show I consistently listen to, but traveling by train to work helps on that front.
Parson's picking is generally terrible.
However, when Hall and Parsons discuss tactics and operations it really shows how little we understand about the game, as it is played at that level.
Last year they got a bit further away from that, sadly.
I like Hall. He discusses other HBs really professionally and supportively, without even one moan about not being close to AB selection, especially as some of them were clearly playing worse than him.

Parsons' picking isn't helped by his enthusiasm for making "big calls", which is fun though.
Interesting that both he and Hall were picking the Waratahs to improve a lot this season.

@gt12 I've never been a fan of Parsons the player (more on his ability/size than his enthusiasm/drive where he always gave 100%) but enjoyed listening to his analysis, as you say he has some great insights that we arent always onto

Sadly MP not playing, there'd be a good double figures of tries there!

@tim said in Super Rugby 2022:
James Parsons is picking the Chiefs as favourites for the title.
I reckon that's a decent shout if they fan get Josh Ioane playing to his potential at 10.
Blues locks are going to be a real problem - gut says the losses of Tuipulotu & GCT are going to be felt big time

@kiwimurph yeah if they get Ioane to be consistently at his good streak form from a couple of years ago, he's got one helluva backline sitting there to use the wide space he's extremely good at unlocking.

From the warm up half he played he is looking to run onto the ball at speed as well. That’s a big USP in my book. The defence has to hold and compress in his possible channels s that cannot let him get a break. We have missed that attribute since DC and Cruden.
