Take away all that ill discipline and there was an OK side there.

I hope youre right. Because I want SRP to succeed (unlikley I know) and this doesn't help

[Bovidae]

@crucial Interesting comments by both Gatland and McMillan saying that the 2020 season ended up being beneficial as they had to play so many young players, and that accelerated their development. It is still a very young team.

@crucial I thought he was more like Frizzel...

[Yeetyaah]

@crucial well said. Up the fucking Chiefs

@booboo yeah initial thought was why... but then when you think about how they've used Bridge, I don't see why not. He hasn't looked out of place on the wing at all. In terms of skill set and style of play, he strikes me as Nonu-lite.

My point was along the lines of being particularly efficient at Super level without really having the weaponry for the next level.

@shark I think I first started when he confused So'oialo with Conrad Smith

I've been whinging about him for years. For a long time he couldn't tell brown players apart, that has now spread to all players.

Vai'i?

If so, that's a good sign as Frizzel has way more experience at 6.

In no way was I saying Vai'i was as good as Kaino, just that something about his play at six that reminded me of an early version and that it may be worth exploring further.

Maybe there needs to be a concussion protocol for commentators - get too many names wrong and they sub in Sumo for 10 minutes while Nisbo is off trying to remember what colour undies he has on

That will work, 10 minutes of Sumo nicknames only, then bring on TJ to get overexcited about anyone tangentiality related to Ta$man/Crusaders and underexcited about anyone tangentially related to the Blues, then bring on Laban to tell us what school everyone went to and piss off anyone not already pissed off.
