    <p>While I know what you are saying, That game against France was only two tests ago. So it isn't that far in the past that he was doing what he has always been good at. Too early to write him off IMO.</p>

    <p>Although I agree that it is too early to write him off, that game was against FRANCE. The same country that ended fifth in the 6 Nations only a week ago.</p>

    <p>Everyone knows the frogs don't take the 6N seriously anymore.  The RWC version of France vs NZ is a totally different animal (albeit weaker than the 2011 version)</p>

    <p>Yes that game against France, a RWC Knock out game on foreign soil, where many were tipping that they would knock us out again. It was a fucking huge game. Arguably the biggest game since the 2011 Final. Maybe even the biggest game of Savea's career up to that point.</p>

    Yeah I thought he fronted big time for that game , maybe he is going through a similar phase to Joe Rok did in the latter part of his test career where he struggles to be the same player he was when he was younger week after week .<br><br>
    It's a bit like the fast bowler who can't be the tear away aggressive speed machine for ever and modifies his game to still be A valuable player . . <br><br>
    Maybe that is where Julian is at , dunno ?

    <p>He's been highs and lows for a few years now. Really seems to struggle maintaining his fitness and weight outside of the AB environment. I would never begrudge these guys a decent off season and a chance to unwind but some do it much better than others. Wonder if things might change if we do get a global season and the pressure to be 'on' for 9-10 months of the year changes.</p>

    <p>In any case it sucks for the Canes to have such a quality player come back and half ass his way through the first part of the season. Treat them like adults but ffs If I were the Canes trainer or coach I'd have him on a fitbit and be keeping an eye on things over the break! You don't put on that kind of beef from just one sitting of chop suey!!</p>

    Really not sure about these high shots on players that have their head at waist height. How are you meant to tackle them?

    <p>Really don't know what the Canes are on. Coles was all over them (Kings) in the 1st half.</p>

    <p>I agree with the comms that BB has been unusually quiet so far. Just seem to have gone into their shells after starting with fire and brimstone</p>
