Rumours and Stuff

I like the idea of our big forward with Taka and Fergo both over 100kgs taking hit ups out wide. Sure Taka will let a try in every game or two but if we win 30-16 does it matter? We can be physical and wear teams out that way. Just run over the top of them. That is the style id be going for with our squad. Straight and hard.

if Taka is the answer, then what was the f**king question?

Patience.
Dominance.
Maturity.
Ability (cohesion).
Decision making.

Do you think we excel in any of these important abilities?

Well Under 20s belted and Wenty belted. Sounds like Evans and Bevan had stinkers.
Souths must be doing some awesome training and have some gun juniors.

Or, we just got the obvious pointed out to us.

Why will we win another spoon????

That’s because they’re both bog average players...even at this level.

A well trials mean nothing.

Did @hindy111 step in?

Do you know his record at centre with and without Semi?

You could work it out. How do you reckon it compares to our win record without him at centre, with and without Semi?

Because that’s what you would need to compare to get anything meaningful about Takairangi’s contribution at centre.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

LOL YEA BUT you didn't recognize that whilst Taka was at centre he had the best winger in the world outside him. And the percentage dropped because there obviously was no Semi Radrandra in 18 whilst Taka was used as a utility.

Look at who's the dummy now
LOLLLLLLLL GO PAU PAU.....

So you reckon he might go alright with Ferguson outside him?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

G.Jennings was a centre in the lower grades. Not like he hasn't played that position before.

He’s been playing wing because we needed his go forward.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Well, ahem, ah, er, Takairangi actually is a recognised centre.

He is. He’s just listed as a second rower on the official site.

Bevan Evans?

It’s just a trial.

 

[Eelogical]

A well trials mean nothing.

Why have a trial, then?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Not for the f**king result.

How about to test individual performances and build fitness?

Hindy said a trial means nothing. I've always taken him literally.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Well don’t. He’s a very nuanced communicator.

It would be better if he came straight to the point. If only he had one.
