I agree Martin has played his role well. I still don’t think he’s ever managed to find consistently high performances through his career. That’s an area he could certainly develop but he has plenty of time. His floor is still pretty effective, if a little rough around the edges, and I agree he and Kikau could use a 15 min spell. Would love to lure Garner over early, even if it took sending a decent prospect like Smith back.
I don't he is entirely to blame for the right's issues but he and Kiks are very close in most stats including errors and penalties conceded.
Kiks gets away with it because of the good.
@ColdWetPanther mentioned non stat areas.
Same applies for Kikau like for Luai's 2nd try. He is the decoy. Helps open the space for Luai.
He put Tago away for the Edwards bombed try.
That is the big difference the left is so good in attack that it doesn't bring such errors into the discussion
The right haven't got that luxury so when Edwards takes the tackle instead of going wide. It is noticed more
or in last nights case. The errors and Missed tackles from Martin
