    Would be good to see the Fern's future Dan Carter, Zarn Sullivan, get a bit of time at 10.

    @frank Dan Carter? He needs to show more for that comparison.

      I think it is a work on, but he is their best half back. He’s a running threat and a very accurate passer who usually puts it in front of people, and he also has a knack of making good covering tackles.

          @gt12 our midfield is getting shutdown pretty easily this year, and a lot of it is because Nock isn't the one clearing from the ruck.

              Good work by the pack leading up to that Lam try. Patty T looking strong

                @nevorian Lam is a bit average though, right place right time

                  How about using the backs, Black?

                    I don’t think the midfield was going that good early when Christie wasn’t playing so I’m not sure he’s the problem there. I do agree that a stronger focus on quick ball would help the Blues (quite noticeable compared to the Chiefs) but I still maintain that Christie is the best option the Blues have.

                      Seriously, that being a penalty for holding on is a bit questionable

                              @taniwharugby yep Murphy is a poor ref (as Hames praises him).

                                  @kiwimurph sadly plenty of refs do seem to allow the jackler leaning rights

                                    @kiwimurph speaks volumes for Hames' refereeing.

                                      What a shocking exit from Black there. That’s inviting points.

                                      But they get away with it.

                                        Really enjoying the analysis of Kane Hames ,I know he’s not everyone’s cup of tea..,but he keeps you informed on the subtle things in and around forward play ..one of the better ones around ,I also enjoy Christian Cullens analysis..
