What's the deal with Jordie and brain fades?

Good to remember that we’d be roasting the fuck out of Dmac if he did that.

I’ll not forget Jordie’s fuck-ups at the WC, one of the reasons why he still has some work to do at 15 to convince me.

Christie has been awful

[Steven Harris]

How bad has Billy Christie been …?

Team was good in the first half. Have looked a bit gassed in the second. Lost pattern with raft of replacements.

On the plus side, Foster will have learned a lot from this game - what the team did right in the first 60 and what went wrong with the changes

[Tim]

That was way too slow from Christie.

[Nepia]

Really am annoyed by Fakatava's injury right now.

@kirwan He does look a little more trim. Big chest though.

Yeah his upper body looks bigger

[sparky]

Christie and Blackadder not good enough. Decent Super Rugby players, but not Test match animals.

[Tim]

@nepia He'll be a good player for Tonga.

[Frank]

Codie Taylor seems a step down from Taukei'aho.

[canefan]

Sloppy

[Chris]

Classic Bridge being the only breather that missed a tackle

After Ennor missed the same guy you mean?

Have a look again it was Bridge who missed him,Ennor tidied it up.

Have a look again, Ennor missed him causing Bridge to miss him. Then Ennor tidied up.

Ennor made the hit and was on the ground through making the tackle when Bridge missed the tackle.Then got of the ground to make the cover tackle.
I just replayed it.

[Victor Meldrew]

WTF was that from Christie at he lineout?

[sparky]

AB Forwards have done well in this test. The backline has been poor.

[antipodean]

FFS Beaudy what was that?

We seem utterly incapable of getting into their half.

Just as I typed that...

[Machpants]

We do not deserved that try

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Don't do that Vaai. Twunt

[Kirwan]

Backline lost all punch when RI went off.

[Tim]

That was fucking awful from Barrett.

I think both need time.

Christie is 4th-ranked HB (probably 5th after Fakatava) and Blackadder is a bench player so we’re unlikely to see much of the first, and a bit of the other.
