New Zealand 2 will deal a massive blow to NZ rugby

[final say]

He has a disinterested’ demeanour about him but he’s getting the numbers regularly

That's a good summary. People see and appreciate different things. Personally I like to see 100% effort, if you drop the ball That's fine, just give me your best. He hasn't given his best.
Not going to be an issue with JFH.
The worst part is that the couldn't give a toss attitude is toxic in a playing group- the Warriors played thier best when thier stars were out this year, 17 blokes giving 100%.

If they pick Kidwell then they aren't winning squat.

The K(I)ea is the Wi…

You thinking he's got a bad attitude isn't him underperforming, as you initially claimed. As a player he's probably our best performed player across the year. The times when you mention the Warriors playing their best he was in the team.

He's been playing below his potential and takes the easy hit ups late in the set.

If that’s afb he’s had basically zero impact this season

We've often had really good coaches up in the UK, but never really had any good NRL coaches aside from Lowe. Our coaches in the NRL seem to be shit despite being apprentices to good coaches.

@final say B/S, due to our lack of prop rotation both him and Barnett do lots of hit ups/average hit ups, and if we're near the line he usually does multiple as he's out best weapon at that end of the field.

Yeh because the warriors have been scoring so many tries

Whoever signs Madge is on a winner

warriors were stupid for brushing him for Webster

Well , you being a kiwi Union fan and your interpretation of the game...certainly highlights the divide between Aus and NZ / League and Union.
Funnily enough in the same thread you're discussing the lack of adequate Kiwi coaches ..
The irony.
AFB simply hasn't played with the gritty determination and hard work expected of a front rower - thier job.
I've seen far more spirited carries from outside backs half his size.
Luckily with JFH you'll have a genuine front rower that won't be waiting for the game to open up before he carries the ball and he won't be scoring tries- he'll be doing his job.

You are a very strange person. My enjoying rugby has nothing to do with my assessing the play of players in another sport. The fact you think it would is very childish.

I don't like AFB, am glad to see him going, much prefer JFH, but AFB has been good this year despite your protestations. I'm going to put watching the Warriors actual matches in the same boat as your living in NZ and being a kid from Chch - bullshit.

" I don't like AFB, am glad to see him going, much prefer JFH"
I'm glad you came to that after I walked your dumbarse through it lol.

I watch anywhere between 4 to 6 games a week and as I have a keen interest in the Warriors in particular, they're always included.
I'd hazard a guess that you only watch the Warriors... and then Union .. maybe 3 or 4 games a week judging by your in depth knowledge of the international calendar , Super Rugby and the NPC .
By watching a significant amount of Union ( which clearly you do) more than League, you will have a lack of feeling in regards to the speed of the game, the work rate and skill. AFB would look like a genius after watching that trash. If you watched enough League, you'd see him as an over payed and overrated prop.

I was thinking this then you go and post it

the guy does know a lot about the warriors but you’re spot on
