    Kieran Crowley seemed genuinely positive in the build up, but it looks like his players have been having nightmares all week.

      This type of game will cement Mo’unga in the team for the rest of the tournament (I don’t think he would be dropped anyway btw).

      He’s been excellent on attack (great short ball there) as he usually is against teams that have given up on defense. His kicking from hand won’t be noticed at all.

      Btw, his goal kicking has been excellent.

      I’m fine with him at 10, get rid of BB get JB to exit etc.

        Hold my beer BB with a pushed shit pass... yet another shitty decision - some may think I am being harsh .... but he seriously takes the lowest percentage play 90% of the time...

          Happy enough in the stand ...

            I agree.

            He won’t be dropped so we need to use Jordie’s boot much more.

                So much for worrying about Italy as opponents. They have been shocking in this match. Miserable fare.

                    @gt12 yep, we still need to kick.better and utilising his boot seems so obvious, especially for touch finders, I can understand not using him when we put in tactical shittykicks...

                      I think I'd even prefer Havili to BB.

                        Best stat in this first half thus far is the one penalty conceeded and that was a needless one
