[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1093486, member: 56232"] Coka is another example of a player with great physical attributes but next to no rugby intelligence. His positioning and decision making are frequently off. I'd like to see how he performs after being in a team that can properly coach him, because he definitely isn't getting that at Bath or England. In the last game he rarely saw the ball on the wing and when he came infield it was often running a forwards line into traffic. I'd say he is one to keep an eye on because of how powerful he could be but he needs to improve many aspects of his game, simple hard running isn't enough. Get him in Chiefs, Sarries or Tigers and see how he performs as part of a well-oiled machine with a defined role but I wouldn't say he is deserving of his spot ATM. A combination of injury, an underperforming Bath team and an underperforming England have not helped his case as I think he is a player who can exploit situations the team as a whole have created rather than creating them himself.
