We really need Finau to move beyond a few 'smashed me bro' moments at Super level.

[pakman]

I like to imagine the scenes as Finau horizontally hits Pollard’s midriff 0.2 seconds late.

[mohikamo]

@pakman

Haha

I remember that

I also remember his bok team mates laughing at him afterward, asking him if he was still alive!

Dalton Papali'i has re-signed to 2027

[Canes4life]

Ardie is captain for this week, Harry Plummer has come into camp as injury cover for Perofeta.

[KiwiMurph]

So pleased for Plummer - so deserving

Why are some sports journalists so stupid?

[taniwharugby]

How embarrassing.

Peanuts…..Monkeys

[Machpants]

Jesus, there are some utter morons there

[reprobate]

It's just so fucking lazy. Come in with a pre-prepared question which he answers in his initial comments, but go ahead and ask it anyway. Sack these useless fluffybunnies and employ someone who gives a shit.

mploy someone who gives a shit.

there's no money to pay them. So talent walks.

[kiwiinmelb]

my view is Jason comes across as a bit of a pillock. He could ahev said we are confident he will be fit for the SA series instead of trying to be smart

The public wnat to know more adn the coaches should give it to them via the media instead of trying to be a smartarse. And pissing journalists of when it really wasn't needed

[Kiwiwomble]

@Winger what?...he literally said he was only out for two weeks in his initial address...and then repeated when answering the first and second questions....and yet they ask the same thing again

Try looking at it with the presumption the public and journalists are smart enough to grasp that if he's only out for the two tests against Argentina, what would that mean for the South African Tests which come after those two weeks?

Or put another way; if I have two apples and take away two apples...

All he had to say is we are confident he will be back for SA.

Or even say a little about the issue and providng some more information on a key player. Who has been out for most of the year so far

Instead he carried on like a fool. Trying to win points at the expense of people you want on your side. You know to help promote rugby in this country

[Kiwiwomble]

@Winger i feel like we've watched two different clips

the one i see has Ryan volunteering from the start, ie hiding nothing or waiting to be asked, telling them how long SB is out for (inferring the game he will be back for) and who is taking his responsibilities.....and then immediately being asked multiple times how long SB is out for.......
