      Both of those articles have Aumua at hooker.
      Not knocking his performance at all, he had a good game, but surely Sami T was more influential and stood up in the biggest game?

        @Crucial perhaps Samisoni being penalised for the Chiefs lineout issues in the first half?

            I agree about Luke Jacobson, player of the round, even better than Talea imo

              @Winger i say without exaggeration we would be multiple places higher up the ladder if Nareki could keep injury free, make meters at will and his line speed and tackle technique were perfect

                Considering his position and the opposition quality, he shone. Yes, his highlight run was a misread from the defence but his other work was awesome. Pity there is no decent stats site so we have to go from reported comments but I think he was around 20 tackles?

                Telea also excellent but mainly through the skill of picking out when the Canes were set up like schoolboys. Canes really were a mess at times. Great to have that ability but may not get those chances often.

                          J Nareki 11 tackles with 3 missed, not as impressive as it felt watching but still great hustle

                          these are pretty impressive though

                          J Ainsley 13 tackles with 1 missed
                          M Hicks 16 tackles with 0 missed
                          B Harmon 20 tackles with 0 missed
                          H Renton 12 tackles with 0 missed

                                The usual caveats about the stats. I usually keep an eye on them during a game but they only tell part of the story.

                                Where the opposition is concentrating their attack has a big impact. For example sometimes you see locks with huge numbers because the opposition has decided to go for pick and goes etc

                                    Pretty sure they use opta which is reasonably reliable

                                    The UI is clunky. Use the calendar to find older games

                                    It's like their mission is to make the stats as difficult as possible to find.

                                    I keep going there to look for stats but they removed the Statsguru entirely and make these one extra difficult to find.

                                    I am really hoping that part of the Silverlake investment goes to better fan engagement via stats (onflow effect on discussions/comps/TV analysis etc). Relying on third parties is not the way.

                                        Get the feeling Richard Knowler thought he was just supposed to be picking an All Blacks team for the first Test...
