    @mariner4life I do agree he’s a lot more effective at 7.

    If he played the last half.hour in any loose forward position I reckon he'd be one.of our biggest game winners

    @mariner4life maybe his best position is an impact player. I just need to see more from Sotutu at test level. Right now I wouldn’t mind seeing a loose trio of Grace Papali’i and Sotutu, with Ardie off the bench.

    He’s had a beaut last ten mins though to be fair.

        Be thankful you don't have this Irish lot with Isa "you wouldn't guess he played rugby" O'Nacewa

          Considering how we started I'm quite shocked by the scoreline.

          Half of two halves.

              Ireland go to shit when Sexton is not there and now he failed the hia. Does that mean he's out for next weekend too?

                  Ireland threw the kitchen sink at it in the first 15 minutes, and then had little left other than a mud backline in concrete shoes for the rest of the half.

                          The counter rucking and size in the backs are really nice changes

                              So the takeaway from this is let the coaching group work from home?

                                That last 20 minutes was much better from the ABs.

                                        Ireland go to shit when Sexton is not there and now he failed the hia. Does that mean he's out for next weekend too?

                                          BB and JB kicked to keep them pinned back. The forwards upped the linespeed, and started tackling with some venom, we are passing around their defence and there is space.

                                          We look fitter, and we are winning the scrum battle.
