@antipodean Been good the last 3 games.
By good you mean energetic? He's terribly inaccurate and needs to choose his moments better.

missing him for his leadership too, at points we just needed to take a breath and calm down.
We also need someone to pressure the ref. Co-captain Patrick is the ‘follow me’ guy, not the talker.
Listen to Ben Smith constantly nagging the ref -
@Chris said in Highlanders vs Blues:
@Kirwan where are they going to come from ?
Mitre 10 maybe very important for the Blues , Chiefs,Highlanders and for the Hurricanes to harden up their tight FiveI want the Crusaders backup hooker (from Auckland region I think), Manu back from the Chiefs and dunno about halfback.

17 tackles, no misses, seems pretty “accurate “ to me, whatever that means.

So he's there to tackle and nothing else? How effective are these tackles? What happens when he decides to join in a tackle rather than waiting to see what develops as a result?

@antipodean was just offering an example of accuracy, because I had no idea what you are on about. Dalton is playing well.

I think he shows tremendous potential but really needs to develop his decision making on the field. A lot of his interactions are either unnecessary or ill suited to the developing situation.

@antipodean I'd like to see examples because I don't know what you're on about, especially in these last 3 games.

@Kirwan still an egg though. What was that about with Jantjies?
You mean Lentjes who the ref told to shut up earlier?
Haha that one. The one who got shoved by Reiko while just walking back to the scrum.
A nudge whilst both players were mouthing off.
Oh my mistake, Reiko isn't a dick then.
Says the guy with AfterDavid in his team...
What the fuck is this? What does Smith has to do with it?
The point being there are plenty of mouthy pricks in every team.
Wow great point. Thanks Cotton. I will never criticise any player again, as I'm sure there's other players who may have done the same thing. So enlightening.
Enlightening you say. Says the guy who says the same thing about Rieko every week.
Completely incorrect and zero evidence but hey cool story bro. I won't criticise him again for being an egg, don't worry. I mean player x on my team might have done something dumb off the field before and player y might have been spoken to by the ref!
