It’s arguable that Barrett is the best fullback in the ABs setup. His first name isn’t Jordie however.
Ben Smith is our best right wing
Best 14 & 15
The coaches seems to like having a fullback-ish winger. Jordies shocker really helps a winger like Bridge
If McKay is an out-and-out goal-kicking speedster, Nareki a freakish finisher and Koroi an electric playmaking option, then Collins brings solidity, maturity, experience and highly-valued communication skills of which Umaga lauded during his time as Blues head coach.
A paywall works if you have something of value
Patrick McKendry does not have anything interesting to say and often makes basic errors. For instance this was in a paywalled article about Papali'i
At 1.91m and 95kg, but with genuine pace which he revealed in scoring a try in the corner after blowing past Beauden Barrett last weekend, it may be that Papalii's long-term position is openside flanker.
I'm guessing those stats are from an age restricted team a few years ago. Anyone can see Papali'i is a lot bigger than 95kgs.
The Blues and AB's sites both list Papali'i as 1.93m and 113kg.. thats a pretty good size for a blindside
Good decisions from Specman in that Bulls try. 7 points ahead
20mins left. No signs of the Bulls running out of puff yet
A penalty kick on HT
Great effort from the Bulls to be winning by 5 with almost no ball

I don’t get why you can knock it back in the general field of play but as soon as you are in goal it’s suddenly illegal?
He didn’t just knock it back. You can’t knock the ball out any where on the field
