Paps was great last weekend.
Our biggest problem is ball carriers/ line breakers creating scoring opportunities. With time will improve. Early days. -

@MN5 How is he not the best loose forward in NZ?
He is our most effective LF on defense and most effective at the ruck, Ardie is only better ball in hand, Dalton is better in the tight and on defense - i thought this was the general consensus, no?

I thought Ethan Blackadder was ?

There are still really interesting and insightful people who post here. I love this forum, even Papalii knockers post really good stuff sometimes.
Papali'i knockers (if there is such thing) are far worse, the guy is comfortably the best loose forward in NZ - he is more important than Ardie to this team due to his size and impact on defence.

He was so good in that first test aye, falling off tackles at will.
I give him credit, he played well in the second test but consistency would be great.
Ardie obviously isn’t in form but when he is he’s by far our best despite what Timmy thinks. Go and watch the WC final if you need a reminder of that.
And Finau, well I’ve barely noticed the guy in the first two tests.
Bring back King Blackadder I’d say.

Yeah yeah bro we know everyone loves Ardie for his cute little highlights reels, watch the Blues forwards led by Papali'i, Dalton actually wins the collisions outright and dominates the breakdown - his efforts on 'both sides of the ball' are simply unparalleled.

@darylmitchell Papali’i plays one okay game and now you’re talking him up as if he’s on McCaw’s level. I think your heads in the clouds a bit there fella. Let’s just see if he can keep that form up for the whole year instead of announcing him as the second coming. We already have Blackadder in the team who holds that mantle.
As for your Blues forwards, Sotutu and Ioane played bloody well on the weekend… oh wait.

Think @MN5 might be doing the AB socials.

Fuck me, they’re actually doing Chuck Norris jokes about him. Since when does he warrant those ?
Whoever does the moderating for the ABs Facebook page should run head first into a wall, this is just embarrassing

Brad Thorn was the original rugby "Chuck Norris".
Brad Thorn would never be sissy enough to Chuck anything.

the way trains go in NZ, it'll be out with scheduled maintenance, then a workforce strike followed by taking a wrong turn and winding up on a beach.

Colin Meads wouldn't need to say hello. He'd simply grunt and Ethan Blackadder would be out for the rest of the season. Again
