[QUOTE="Nubiwan, post: 863613, member: 43441"] Posted this in the 3rd test thread, but thought it deserved a place here too. Has anyone questioned Hansen taking a forward off for a back in the match, after the SBW red card? Given the wet conditions, and the nature of the Lions game, then I'd probably considered leaving the backs short a man for the contest, and keeping parity or better up front. If anything, Hansen gave the Lions the parity they needed at scrum time, and in the loose. I reckon if he had his time back, then he''d have kept Kaino (sp?) on the park. Think it was a mistake to take a loose forward off. Certainly for a replacement who is on debut. In fact, might go so far as to say it cost his side the match. [/QUOTE]
