What is the story with Frizell? Stuck on the bench at AB level, stuck on the bench at super level and stuck on the bench at npc level.

Is he unfit?

Dice

@pukunui Hard to tell, but it could just be rotation. He started the first 3 games and now this will be his 2nd game off the bench. Taufua has also had 3 starts and 2 games off the bench.

If Frizell is still on the bench next week, it probably means they see that as his best fit in this team.

faark, just shake my head when I see the line ups they are rolling out, at this level that is insane.

@Dice ok, not so bad then. I guess they are pretty stacked in that area too.

I am liking what I am seeing from Taumateine, am hoping he overtakes Weber for the Chiefs.

Gotta love the conditions at Puke. Good for onions and potatoes. Farmers will also be happy

Bones

Havili can kick goals can't he? He's certainly having a good season.

Jailbreak7

@Bones Yeah - kinda thinking he (with Laumape) may have been the unluckiest non-selection. That deciision he made for the pass to Jordan for the try was a beauty.

NTA

Perry not setting low enough here and being twisted in. Utterly the wrong call from the ref. Perry's elbow pointing down is the indicator.

Loved CM playing "Baby Shark" as the Mako ran out

Daffy Jaffy

@Jailbreak7 unlikely coz as he signed with the Canes for 2020.

Perry is useless.

Jailbreak7

@number9 Can't believe he was an AB

These commentators know f all about scrums.

Perry got done again.

Steven Harris

Fantastic Kick pass from Hunt...CM need hit back or it’s gonna be a long night

taniwharugby

@NTA might be a thing after naki did it last week, all the good it did...

Jailbreak7

We lack incision and pace on attack. That and when we do get the ball we can't hold onto it.

Jailbreak7

Crissake living off scraps.
