Telea and Smith, Barrett played hard and clean

[hydro11]

I understand the votes for Smith and I think he did play well overall. However, his box kicking is just so far behind Dupont's. I know it is not necessarily his fault, it was the tactic to box kick. But those balls needed to be kicked long and going back to Beauden, Jordan or Mo'unga to do so.

@hydro11 kicking long is not really a tactic this team likes, when we do you wonder if it was intentional given how often we kick short!

We didn't chase any of his box kicks

Well Jordan might have chased a couple...
