That’s another one on Sevu. Useless.
Only Robertson and his cronies were dumb enough to pick him for test rugby. Pathetic.
Cannot understand people wanting guys like Lio-Willie in the ABs. Too small and unathletic for test rugby.

We have a problem with this guy.
A very good allround rugby player.
But..
Too slow to be a winger.
Can't pass well enough as a centre.
Not a true loosie.
I'll pass.

And we have lost Fehi as a result.

Overrated journeyman.

the only value I see in him at International level is as the swiss army knife on the bench ..... certainly not good enough in any one position but there may be value in the fact that he can play each positional reasonably well

You ok hun? You're only supposed to post if the saders win, bit early yet
@jimmyb said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
@Tim that’s a fairly silly comment. He’s consistently played well this season (and last season) and has out performed his opposites in kiwi derbies this season. Hes part of a team that’s getting slaughtered.
Doesn't change hos point. Hes not fast enough or big enough. Just another journeyman.
Crusaders loose forwards got fucking smoked that half. Jacobson killing them at the breakdown.

I still don't quite trust this...
Leicester didn't make much of an impression during his short stint cosplaying as a loose forward.

Defence coach for the Crusaders may want to brush off the CV
Or realise that it's not a bye week.

Spot on. He's solid, but in intense physical rugby he's just another club player. Not even close to international quality.

We found one! Sorry in advance. Join us in looking forward to 2027
@mariner4life well then the other two games against the chiefs and hurricanes where CLW out played his opposites makes them journeymen too? The one game Jacobson and Parker turn up in because their backs are so much better and they have two dynamic locks that arent slower than props somehow makes that point?
Seems a bit tough to putting so much focus on Leicester when he's been one part of a team that has been destroyed in the backs, which has in turn caused the entire team to play like headless chickens.
I fully expect him to be in Rennie's squad & have his work-ons pointed out to him.
Oh, and it's only half time. Still plenty of time for the Chiefs to shit the bed.

Nothing on the fern further than 1 week back matters. Except that RWC forward pass Fuck Wayne Barnes
@Infy said in SF: Chiefs v Crusaders:
Turns out carving up the Hurricanes reserves team doesn't make Havili a world beater. Who would have thought?
Fixed
Playing fast running rugby is when we (NZ sides) are at thier best, and it starts at 10 and players around hitting the ball at pace, so good to see
@Tim is suspect this is anti-Robertson more than anti-CLW. He’s been one of the more consistent loose forwards this year. He outplayed the Chiefs loosies last year and one game where his team is falling to pieces is hardly an indication. Unless of course you want to use the same logic with Dmac and shitting the bed for the past 4-5 years and this is the one outlier

Spoken like a true Bay fan. The maths of whether they can still score X tries in Y minutes...
