@Machpants Pretty much. It was virtually the Drua side out there.

Midfield was particulary impressive.
Yeah ALB and Proctor my two players of the match. Ratima also very good before going off.
-
Very clinical performance. EB was the only one I can think of that struggled, everyone else played well really. ALB playing well at 12 was a big plus and great to see Clarke still in form after his injury as he is an absolute weapon down the left.

Fuck sake Sky. Sort your shit out.

Proctor reminded me of a young Rico Gear playing centre for the Blues back in the day.

I get what you mean, I was trying to work out who he reminds me of .

Aumua is pressing to start
Sititi needs to start. Savea 8 , Sititi 6
Ratima starts, wonderful to have quick ball.
Proctor starts
Ioane moves to the wing
Clarke is hungry good to see.Our supply of props is awesome.
For the Razor knockers this team is so much better organized than the previous era. Kept their structure.

So 47 - 5 in the end. Best part was to see the newbies do so well.
Best part was walking out of the "Kangaroo & Kiwi", and some mehican seems to be setting up a sausage sizzle on the sidewalk. As the bar turns into a shit disco. Friday, 21:40.

A passing center omg

Ardie not a shake on what he was last year
What a load of bollocks. He is doing fine and by the end of the year he will be even better !!!!

Ethan is just coming back from injury, but you'd hope for a bit more from him. It's Dalton then a lot of daylight in the 7 jumper.
Regardless, if he can't keep up against an average Fiji, he shouldn't be there. He'll get blitzed by better teams.

The only thing you can really take from a game like this is players who shit the bed or look ineffective.
And I don't agree with Marshall that Ethan looked good. Busy yes.
@antipodean He's a bit of a lightweight at this level isn't he? Like, he gets around and tries to attack everything, but half the time he got folded at breakdown time and was left falling over, and he falls off tackles by over committing. He did a few good things out there but most of the time I thought he was rather ineffective, and that was against Fiji.
I fear for him if he plays against the bigger packs, not through lack of endeavor of course, but I think he gets hammered against the bigger packs.
