The firsts scored plenty to not much - three tries to Uate.Misanthrope said:How did we go in firsts?
I'm loving how Cross looks in the Newie colours. He just matches the style of hard nosed, bad-ass forward we used to be famed for.
Also good to see all of these big, Islander guys coming through. It's a fact that they're the future of the game, as evidenced by the number of top teams who form the bulk of their team from guys of Islander descent. It bodes well for NZ and the island nations in the future.

He did some great things, and some terrible things in the Warriors game.
He will get plenty of time against the Sharks as well. We would be better to judge him on those performances.
I hope he goes well and secures a spot, Aku has athletic ability that is rarely seen.
