    No matter the score in a game like this, can't really take anything from it, good or bad.

    You saw the ABs intensity dropped about 20 mins which causes those micro second delays in decision making and then accuracy drops.

      @stag ABs have been committing about one man per ruck. Would be better served getting some contact practice in by hitting rucks.

      And not permitting any kicking. Treat this like the RWC group stage match against minnows it is.

      Fozzie can't risk doing that, remember how much shit Hansen copped in 2015 when they did that.

        Play one guy goalie, has to stay under the posts, practise playing as 14

              @stag I am not watching so I have no opinion on how he is going. I do suspect it's not flash, but probably not as bad as it reads on here.

                Imagine what the score would be if Brad Weber could pass accurately.

                Tupaea has been better than I expected. Papalii and Jacobson have been great.

                Taavao carved Tonga up and then we see Bridge kicking it away or failing to beat anyone.

                                  He tidied up some ball, passed well occasionally, had ok ball security, has a good workrate. But we won't get many trys from his side and he shouldn't play against the top teams. Am wondering who should be our top 11s.. Big Leicester would have at least one try already IMO.

                                        He tidied up some ball, passed well occasionally, had ok ball security, has a good workrate. But we won't get many trys from his side and he shouldn't play against the top teams. Am wondering who should be our top 11s.. Big Leicester would have at least one try already IMO.

                                        Dalton really looks like he'd be good against top teams as well. We really are gifted with 7s.
                                        Nobody seems to be ripping crap off Akira so far so that must be at least a pass mark from him (but it isn't really a tough challenge at 6).
                                        Am wondering how you can rank the 8s (Jacobson vs Sotutu) after tonight though.
