What the fuck, 2pm?? They're only 3 hours in front of us, At least have an 8pm game for a 5pm kick off here. Do they not have adequate lighting?

Have watched both closely for Wests and Faifua and Anderson are not up to this level.

Anderson been kicking around for awhile, maxed out all the stats in QPR last year. Won the Alec Evans medal, argument could be made that next logical step was the super rugby contract for him.

but your talentfinder eye has already pulled the plug on this man and come to conclusion on the back of 5-10 minutes towards end of a game? usually in a blowout.

i probably agree with you on Faifua. Still young so there’s room to grow/develop.

JOC (James O'Connor) at 12 defensively might be a bit of a concern, especially with Levi Aumua as the opposing 13.

My understanding from O'Connor's time in the centres at Sale is that his defensive work was reasonably solid. Obviously there's been a bit of time and some injuries since then though. Aumua's been beating the best of them regardless, so it's definitely a channel to watch.

Zander dropped is understandable, but the two front rows have little to get enthused about.

Depth looking pretty shallow here across the board.

Bite the mouth guard JOC (James O'Connor). Could be a long night in that channel. Aumua has been beating up very good defenders all season.
