That's on ALB who left the most obvious hole for the Argy to run into.
These ABs are playing incredibly poorly.
ALB had to come up, Argentina had something like a four-man overlap. The players on the inside needed to come over in support.
You position yourself so the play has to go back in or float over you. He just left the straight line for a player coming at speed to take, which negates him moving forward and the inside support to come across in time.

His physicality has concerned me in the past...

Where's Proctor
-
So Tele'a caught it on the ground but immediately stumbled, still think he is carrying an injury, maybe ankle instability?

Jordie gives away a penalty 10m out - not having a great game so far.

He didn't have much choice tidying up the ball given to him by telea and tj

Yeah give that ALB and Proctor combo another run I reckon. Jordie needs more pressure on him to sharpen him up.
22 minutes in b4 you call for Proctor's selection.
Good self-controlFrom what I’ve seen of our other centres he should be. A centre that can actually pass, am I asking for too much?
And a midfielder that is willing to run straight and hard. Jordie has to stop playing small

The problem with Jordie is he doesn’t have much power, he’s just big so most of the time he just clatters into the opposition without making much gain line.

How fucking difficult was it to select ALB where he played well last time, and a centre at centre?

ALB is a centre...
And a game against an average Fiji is hardly the metric needed.

Taylor’s playing like shit again.

Except his lineouts haven't missed.... But hey we know your view on cantabs

We need fast halfbacks and wings It's not difficult

That’s actually pretty accurate, certainly compared to Aki, De Allende, Esterhuizen etc.

Half back is what is stunting our attack

Why he has given away a penalty nailed every line out he has done a lot less wrong than quite a few other who have been shit.
JB and TJ to name 2

Clearly not first choice. Leon is a shit coach and selector.

Jordie ran with more vigour and even less skill (passing) that time..
