    @Winger i say without exaggeration we would be multiple places higher up the ladder if Nareki could keep injury free, make meters at will and his line speed and tackle technique were perfect

    I agree about Luke Jacobson, player of the round, even better than Talea imo

    Considering his position and the opposition quality, he shone. Yes, his highlight run was a misread from the defence but his other work was awesome. Pity there is no decent stats site so we have to go from reported comments but I think he was around 20 tackles?

    Telea also excellent but mainly through the skill of picking out when the Canes were set up like schoolboys. Canes really were a mess at times. Great to have that ability but may not get those chances often.

    Pretty sure they use opta which is reasonably reliable

    The UI is clunky. Use the calendar to find older games

    J Nareki 11 tackles with 3 missed, not as impressive as it felt watching but still great hustle

    these are pretty impressive though

    J Ainsley 13 tackles with 1 missed
    M Hicks 16 tackles with 0 missed
    B Harmon 20 tackles with 0 missed
    H Renton 12 tackles with 0 missed

    The usual caveats about the stats. I usually keep an eye on them during a game but they only tell part of the story.

    Where the opposition is concentrating their attack has a big impact. For example sometimes you see locks with huge numbers because the opposition has decided to go for pick and goes etc

    I keep going there to look for stats but they removed the Statsguru entirely and make these one extra difficult to find.

    I am really hoping that part of the Silverlake investment goes to better fan engagement via stats (onflow effect on discussions/comps/TV analysis etc). Relying on third parties is not the way.

    Get the feeling Richard Knowler thought he was just supposed to be picking an All Blacks team for the first Test...
