Geez the Blackwell haters would be quiet tonight, he went bloody well.
Up there with saying Foster managed the hookers well. Apart from a crucial mistake letting the Landers in, nearly fluffing a sure try and being otherwise fairly anonymous, he went bloody well.
Well guess you see what you want to see, if you saw that it kind of sums up how hard you watch the game. No worries though .
Not sure what Foster has to do with it. But anyway.....Or instead of yet again claiming how you the true rugby man is better than other posters, you could back up your baseless platitudes with something other than "he was really good haterz lolz". Might help your case better than claiming I don't know how to watch rugby when I actually stated stuff from the game and you gave a generic statement.
Wht are you talking about? I said I thought Blackwell went well and you replied something about Foster and hookers whatever that was about. You had a couple of beers? I also said you see what you want, we all do. You thought Blackwell was anonymous, I saw a lot, we obviously look at different parts of games. Didn't know you were a hater so wasn't even directed at you anyway.
Nice try, still not quite there eh. Yeah good one, I wanted to see Blackwell being anonymous apart from a badly taken try and a couple of dropsies. How did you know?
I guess you saw what you wanted to see. Really wish I could see such specific things as "a lot"

Just thought I might point out, as I said we see what we want (but probably should of said we look at differing things in play) but was interested to see Carlos Spencer naming him as one of 2 best locks in NZ teams on weekend, and it seems he had 11 carries and tackles, so he wasn't obviously that anonymous, if you look for those kind of things.. I do, reckon workrate is really high on what I have always valued especially in tighties. And as I say it's what I see, not saying you wrong if you don't rate it.

Oh shit well I'm sold. Always thought Carlos was a great judge on a second rower, especially when he's not coaching their team.
If he's that good at judging on positions he has no idea about, I bet he's all over not having a dead duck in Beauden involved in the starting AB team.

Your post would be very on point given your own Hurricanes coaching experience and rugby playing experience at lock at Super level and above.
Carlos has coaching experience in 4 countries, he might have picked up something useful to say even when observing forwards, no?

Shut the forum down. Damnit if only I'd coached in just one more country.

Ok Bones, I not saying Carlos is a great judge of locks, obviously not as good as you anyway it appears, but the reason I pointed it out you had commented that Blackwell was anonymous on Saturday, but for whatever Carlos also must of noticed him, is all I meant, As I said we all see or look at different things for players, I don't claim to be a Blackwell fan, but I thought he had gone fairly well on Saturday. Obviously so did coaches etc as it was Bird who was replaced at lock not Blackwell (though to be fair I think Bird is a case of age and struggles to lat whole game)
