Interesting to see Lawes starting at 6 for Saints.
Paterson has more experience/more recent experience of playing backrow than Lawes but stays in he donkey row.

If Eddie Jones is watching then Foden and Burrell can wave bye bye to their England prospects!

 

[ratsapprentice]

Really happy to see Harrison taking his opportunity well - tackles, carries and rucks well and aggressively.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I know it's cliched to say, when a player has other interests/opportunities outside of rugby, but is Foden's heart in this?
He looks so uninterested.


Edit: Cracking finish from Burrell, if the TMO gives it.

 

[ratsapprentice]

I got criticised for saying the same thing about him and Haskell a year or two ago, as I recall.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

That was a no try for me.

Think that is slightly unfair on Foden he has been having a very good start to season IMO.

I assume you've not watched any of the other saints games? He's been epic in all of them.

And to argue your point above, all rugby players have interests outside of rugby. All of them have businesses, or study. You just only hear about the celebrity style ones.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I haven't, really.
Do remember being impressed with him when I've seen him, though.
Why is he half arsing everything so much today, then?
It's not even like he's trying but playing badly.

Anyone else want to hop on the Teimana train?

What with the Mike Williams train I'm on ATM stopping for repairs I'm tempted.


Wish Stephenson would get more game time after this he proved that he was ready for this level last season.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That try was an absolute belter, but I think the best part was the really simple scissor move between Rokocoko and Imhoff to finish it off.
Superb.

He must be a better openside than Fraser and kvesic as Harrison is originally from New Zealand.

Too bad he's a 6.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Too bad he's a 6.

Those dreadlocks he used to have take him down several points as well.


Several hundred points.

 

[ratsapprentice]

True - non-Black-hair dreadlocks are some of the most disgusting things you'll ever see.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Too bad he's a 6.

Always been a 7, plays like a 7. Is a natural openside. Not sure where your info is from but it's wrong!

 

[ratsapprentice]

Not until he learns to hook.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Not until he learns to hook.

Learns to hook? What the hell are you in about? You been drinking? Why would an openside need to hook?

Wait are you thinking of a sale player perhaps?

 

[austingtir]

Looks like Carters settled in well. And looks like he choose not a bad outfit for his European retirement.

Could this lot make it to the finals? Plenty of ex NZ players in that team and a few other decent players aswell. Even Roko looked decent which surprised me a bit.

I havent seen their playing roster but doesnt look like enough overseas players to take it out to me. A couple short.
