@hydro11 to be fair their piviots throughout the whole season have been poor
You cant fault the effort of DeGroot ,Harman and Smith so for me its not a lack of effort its about having quality in the right places and some X factor out wide
A fit Jonah Nareki was devasting a couple of sessons back for exampleThe forwards are good. You can go back to games earlier in the season against the Blues when the Highlanders actually shaded the first half up front but shipped 4 or 5 tries on turnovers.
@hydro11 this comp goes in cycles ,it wasânt too long ago that the chiefs couldânt take a trick
I am not convinced all of these teams are the quality of what we saw even in 2020 when the NZ teams when playing each other were one score games at the final whistle -
@taniwharugby Fair call, new haircut, same shit player.
@chimoaus oh shit has he, I assumed he had been injured early and gone off...yikes
-
too easy again
(Great tackle from smith on webber in the lead up)
-
play on.... ffs burns wasnt getting near him
-
Probably not the start to the second half the coaches and fans wanted.
-
I don't really understand how that isn't obstruction. Cane reaches out and throws Burns off balance.

In fairness to Fozzy he specifically mentioned fitness being the reason he wasn't picked last year. Then selected him once fitness improved.

Yes. They told him he would be in the championship squad if he met certain fitness standards. He did the work and it was a success
