The Silver Fern

@Chris technically I suppose depending on how you define senior. Any of Lomax, Tungafasi and Tuipolotu are technically senior all blacks though all three have spent more time out of camp due to injury than out of it.

I suppose if any of Groota (Who I could see being pissed off if there’s inconsistency in punishments), Vaii, Clarke or Big Samisoni are kicking up a fuss than you’d think that would carry some weight too given they’ve all been around five seasons or more.

You’d have to think ALB & Reiko are both with Savea on this one too. Doubt Christie is speaking highly of his treatment too. That could be your four players. Maybe throw in Papalii & possibly Groota into the mix as having legitimate concerns and the deck starts looking uncomfortable for Razor. Though by no means impossible.

The real tipping point is if you get a few more players willing to join them. It would only take a few more voices of dissension to make it untenable for Razor or Hansen.

Should have finished after the first three paragraphs

Rieko was poor. Was it two bad defensive reads leading to two tries

No. If he hadn't turned in when Holland was coming across the attacker likely wouldn't have passed and his momentum would've got him well over the line.

The other I'd have to recheck - I think that's the one he turned in because it was the "world's best fullback" next to him.

That was a poor read and he didn’t trust the inside (who had the ball carrier covered).

Other than those, he was pretty solid.

While I agree that he should have stayed on his man, after watching it a couple of times I don't think it was conclusive at the time he turned in that WJ was going to get the attacker - he only really scragged him.

And 100% agree with your following post.

Thought I should post this as nobody else will - the final leaderboard for Superbru NPC. Super Rugby table is below, well done to @Joan-and-Mary

Thought I'd give some CPR to this thread.

As per usual life threw me another hospital pass (probably more a spear tackle) earlier this year. Doing well considering but it's one of those things that will hit forever.

Anyway, training has been my safe space and saviour and diet is pretty darn good too. Have reigned in the silly cheat days although had an insane obsession with watermelon recently. It was 69 cents a kg!!! Now the price is up I'm avoing it but damn....I would putting away like 2 of those things a week.

Anyway Anyway, still looking for that elusive balance but getting there. Dating once again which has served up some great fun but also more weirdos than usual. It's frustrating and extremely sad rocking up a date and seeing their profile pic was from 10 years prior and 10-15kg lighter. Seriously? But these days I have a healthy case of not giving much of a shit. Women (at least the ones on the apps) are a mystery wrapped in an enigma. I've been called too nice, too fit, not proactive enough (for giving space and being open to work around their busy schedules), not serious, too serious.
Ah well. At least I have my health! Went to a 30 year school reunion the other day and that freaked me out. So many fat old men there. Reminded me that I have to keep this up for as long as I can. Damn

Attempting to do AM and PM sessions every day. Son is in last year of school and smashing it so have quite alot of time these days. Hopefully ramp up the swimming when summer hits.

Posting just got very fast
