[QUOTE="kaftka, post: 218029"] Not a fan. He frustrates me whenever he runs with the ball. You watch him, he is as upright as a flagpole. Every. Time. He has no concept of gravity or motion. He very rarely makes ground when running at international level. He also has a very poor work rate for a loosie. He's an All Black because of his supposed impact, but whenever he is on the field the guys around him just have to work that much harder. He can get away with it at provincial/Super 14 level, or takes on smaller guys. Then he has a real impact on a game. He's just not up to International standard though. And I don't know if he ever will be. Seems to struggle with basic skills too. Holds the ball like a handbag. That's why he drops it half the time. Not a bad player for Waikato. When he's at his best he's great to see. [/QUOTE]
