[QUOTE="spartan32, post: 803525, member: 72322"] So he plays well at Super Rugby. Means very little in some ways. Goode plays very well in the AP, player of the year, can't translate it to test rugby, not even on the bench. Test rugby is a different level. So much more at stake, more intensity, more pressure, more scrutiny. Not all players can handle it. In the last game I didn't think that much of him. If his feet and pace are really that good then at wing or centre he should have stood out, and he didn't. Foley did, as did Falou, but not him. Maybe he'll pick his game up, or maybe he will turn out to be another player who just couldn't make the step up, or maybe Hask will smash him up, only time will tell. [/QUOTE]
