Maybe Brown would've played CHT in the halves last week if Walsh had been available?We hear a lot about needing consistency in selection. Im not attached to Nikorima and he clearly needs a kick up the bum from time to time. But we had a full pre-season to determine who is the best pick for the halves.
Already after round 1 we have a completely new halves pairing. One down to injury admittedly.
But Brown thought Nikorima was good enough last week - this week he's not good enough.
Aside fro Harris I’m not convinced we’re missing much tbhGood team considering who we have available
Agree to a degree, imo DWZ should have been 1 and CHT 6, but I didn’t see pre season, I think Nikorima is a flog but if he was the guy week 1 and the test fullback doesn’t get #1 I’m struggling to see any logicWe hear a lot about needing consistency in selection.
