    Shit, who knew Fletcher had afterburners?!!

    Looking at the prop-appropriate width of him perhaps a more apt term is aftereaters.

    Clearly reads the fern and got upset at people comparing him to a statue in general play

    But just a year or so ago he had the balance of an Easter Island statue and the speed of a George Bridge after breakfast. Really impressive improvement around the field this season.

        I don’t know how many times the ABs and Argies have played in my life time but the vast majority have been scrappy stop start affairs with both teams pushing the play. There’s been the odd fluent try scoring and running games, but they are hardly ever good games to watch.

          Proctor is so at sea in defense. Has no idea where to position himself

          Tough when you're defending the 13 channel two men down.

            Bit more backbone when under pressure than we've seen in a while. Some good D when down to 13 men.

              I appreciate that but it is a theme of making poor reads in defence, particularly on off first phase set piece attack

                  ‘Our discipline has to better’. How many times have we heard that? It’s the rugby equivalent of ‘that’s the last drink, I swear.’ Clueless, gormless, formless, everything less

                    100% using Proctor as a scapegoat. He’s been one of the better backs on the park.

                    Ioane and Jordie have been horrible. Expect better from those two.

                        I do take issue with "discipline" being something thats 100% your own fault too.

                        You can have decent discipline and fall foul of a knob end of a ref.

                          What the fuck are the AB's doing? Something is seriously wrong with this team !!

                          Our discipline is absolute shit. Sorry but losing faith in this coaching setup.

                            Is the game plan about trying to drag the opposition into a game headless chicken rugby ?

                            That’s the only consolation , they are doing similar things

                              I don't know why people would expect better from Rieko

                              He's absolutely cooked.

                              It's on Razor for continuing to select him

                                The pattern needs to change under those circumstances. He needs to drift rather than push.

                                      Have we trained this week? Look lost and confused. And what happened to Scooter saying discipline was some thing they were concentrating on! Think they need to count how many in the bin!

                                          I don't know why people would expect better from Rieko

                                          He's absolutely cooked.

                                          It's on Razor for continuing to select him
