Akira Ioane?? A sloth would have a better workrate. Seriously, that guy has got where he is on natural talent and nothing else. He's an incredible...
They've said they talked about doing the drop goal, but saw space to the right so made the decision to go there instead. Your argument that we...
Yep, I did believe Hansen went for the best players he had available, based on form for the most part. Injury will pretty much always prevent...
I'd always prefer we go for the try rather than the DG. If you screw up your one chance at banging the droppie over, that's it, you're done, game...
I just wonder whether Hansen has decided it'd knock too much confidence out of Barrett to take the tee off him. Sounds like a stupid little thing...

Good to see the shield change hands again - now for the magpies to have a crack at it. Hawkes Bay have seemed to regularly challenge for the...
This is NPC - players are always coming up with creative half cooked ideas on the edge of the law. It's the referees job to call them on it if...
Vaea Fifita hurdled Piers Francis a couple of years ago for Counties Manakau with no repercussions. It was a clean jump straight over as Francis...
NEW ZEALAND: Jordie Barrett, Ben Smith, Anton Lienert-Brown, Ryan Crotty, Rieko Ioane, Beauden Barrett, Aaron Smith, Luke Whitelock, Sam Cane,...
hmmm, haven't seen anyone saying it was obvious. The best team? Yes, i think so, give or take a Todd or so. Obvious? Not from my perspective....
