[QUOTE="AfakasiAssasin, post: 418631, member: 50580"] Yes, I feel his best performances have been at New Zealand Provincial level and in the old Australian Rugby championship playing for the West Sydney Rams where he was on fire all season long. But look at how he played for Samoa when he got the call up in the EOYT 2009. He was at his horrible worst, and that's the side of him which I'm afraid of if he is to play for Samoa at the RWC. On his day hes electrifying and a match winner, but when its not he can look like the most horrible rugby player in the world. I agree, as I said I understand the experimentation and giving as many players as possible in the squad proper game time... but 4 props, 3 scrum halves and only 1 specialist lock? It sounds alil ludicrous to be honest. I hope Im wrong and we can still pull out the win. Though looking at the teams the Tongans look to be the more balanced outfit on paper, but the same thing was said when looking at Samoas team vs Fiji. It should be a good game. [/QUOTE]
