Blues v BI Lions

@Crucial He should look at halfback - woud be fantastic to have a kicking halfback with attacking skills as good as Perenara, but with a better pass...

Funny you say that because during the game he made an atrocious clearing pass and I thought "Well, he definitely can't cover halfback"

I think there is a big opportunity next week for DMac starting at FB against a test strength lions side ,
I think his ratings as a test prospect could go up or down massively as a result of that one game

It was pretty cool that on a night where the Blues paid homage to their former 11 Jonah Lomu that the man wearing the Blues 11 jersey had an absolute scorcher. Little bit different style to Jonah but I think he would have approved.
Now like Jonah they just need to give Rieko the black 11 jersey.

Yeah I saw that when watching again last night, made me laugh. You couldn't even call it a pass... although still wasn't as bad as some of Perenara's.

@Crucial I THINK we're agreeing that it makes sense for DMac to fill that role. Is the disagreement that I hope the selectors may still consider that but you feel the ship has sailed?
-
Great win Blues. But Lions to burst Christchurch bubble. They'll be much more comfortable handling a structured, more tight based game. You heard it here first!

@Rocky-Rockbottom Well said.

@pakman The good news is that AB selectors are keen to see DMac in. Needs to play at 10 to develop game and so they can assess him: http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/all-blacks/93546477 IMO needs to play as much NPC at 10 as possible.

Is Crucial moonlighting as a stuff journo?
The short stint he played at 10 last night, he just looked to rush everything. If he does get an extended run later in he year hopefully he calms it down a bit.
