        • This explains the mind boggling decision to not contest the Paulo charge from last week. 

  • Why didn't he rest RCG last week against the last placed team? He's lost the plot.

    • That would certainly seem to be the smarter move IMO.

    • Because he chose last week to give Paulo a rest/limited minutes. Do you honestly have to be a deadset sook about everything BA does. 

      • Can you stop sucking BA's knob? Since when is it a crime to ask a fucking question? You're a dcikhead.

  • Smart play to rest RCG he needs a rest. I'd say Field is injury? If not perhaps it's an indication that Taka might be an option in the semi.  I know sterlo was keen for Taka to play 6 with Brown out and I agree. Big body plenty of experience 

    • Not if means losing and missing out on the top 4 - then it will be a case of string the bastard up.

      • I'm backing the coach if he think he needs a rest he needs a rest. Stuart is playing his reserve grade side.

      • On his day Takairangi is a match winning player. I actually like him at 6 because his defensive issues are all about lack of lateral pace and that's much less of an issue at 6 as against centre. If he's there to make the tackle he usually makes an effective tackle. He's possibly the most gifted ball player in our squad.
