        Cane Mounga, ALB. Just because.

        Would have been just as easy to also vote Coles, Whitelock, Smith.

            Smith, Whitelock, Mounga - All three had big impacts on the game.

              @chimoaus is a bug in the software that alters the order, usually alot more.

              Coles, Smith Mounga...but Whitelock, Cane, ALB, Sotutu all deserving too

                My immediate thought was he was your Motm so you were just saving everyone a bit of time putting him at the top. πŸ˜€πŸ‘

                  @chimoaus is just him and Scott who have been moved from the order they should be in.

                  He was one of my picks though.

                    @taniwharugby Maybe the Ferns software has an advanced algorithm that reads the game thread and sorts them accordingly. πŸ˜‰

                      Coles - Fantastic. Didn't put a foot wrong.

                      Mo'unga - Two great tries. Passed, kicked and made decisions well.

                      Aaron Smith - Keeps the tempo high, great service.

                        Coles, Whitelock and Ritchie.

                        Sam Cane, Smith, ALB close. Pat T also put in a great shift.

                          When the forwards do the hard work up front, everyone out the back looks good

                                Whitelock Mounga and Cane for me. But Smith ALB Frizzell and Coles all had strong games.

                                  Whitelock, Mo’unga and ALB. Cane & Coles also deserve mentions.

                                    Mounga, Whitelock, Fritzell in that order.

                                        Watching the replay, I think Pat T deserves some more love. I think he has made himself an automatic selection now

                                          Mo, ALB were a given for me, but after that a bit difficult. Didn't feel right giving it to another back, so it had to be one of the Sams. Went Whitelock. The other one was great, as was Coles. Nice when the choices are that hard - means that most of them played well.

                                            I haven't watched the broadcast yet but at the game Frizell was barely noticeable aside from a few ruck clearouts. He's a roller coaster for me, didn't support his meteoric rise, then he got good, then he drfited back a bit, then he got good again, and now he's drifted back again.

                                            Live at the ground ALB, Whitelock, Coles, Smith, Cane and Mo'unga looked good but I'll make my decision

                                              @Nepia Frizzel carried alot in the first half, but was smashed by Aus most of the time, but we didnt lose any ball.

                                              He just isnt imposing himself as you'd expect from his physical size, so maybe that might come the more he plays

                                                  @Machpants had 10 carries for 10m..nothign wrong with his workrate, just lacking a bit of physicality at the moment

                                                    Frizell runs too upright so is often driven back in the tackle.

                                                    I voted Mo'unga, Whitelock, and ALB over Coles.

                                                      Agreed, he's not there yet in terms of physicality. However, his work rate is generally good across the 80, but especially in the first half. And I think he's also increased his physicality bit by bit across the three tests. His trajectory is right, so we just have to hope that he continues to get better and more physical with each hit out.

                                                          I think he is playing super tight , doing the hard yards not that 6 who is always ranging out wide. funny some think he runs to upright, I remember when they used to say the same about Kaino.

                                                            Yeah, Frizzel really busy tight 6 doing the yards up fat man's ally with Whitelock creating space further out and being a great defender in close as well. Is it a coincidence that Cane is being able to range a little bit wider and become a ball runner?
