As opposed to the famously athletic Conrad Smith

Why is he too small? We need to worry more about players fufilling their roles than what the scales say We don’t have a Ma’a Nonu. We have what we have and we need to cater a plan around the players we have instead of bemoaning what we don’t

He was picked last year and Jones Eddie was roundly criticized for doing so

Astute rugby mind you are

Caleb Clarke is so annoying, standing there with a confused face like he didn't do anything

New defense coach and better attacking gameplan when we enter the 22

There is nothing i hate more than aimless pick and goes as soon as you entre the 22. It's brainless and clearly isn't working
