SRP (Super Rugby Pacific) 2022 - NZ & Drua matches with no match thread

[Dan54]

Josh Ioane gone for the night by the look of it & Clan with a 6/2 bench could be an issue later on. That said Lentjes may still have enough toe to play midfield if not wing any more.

Think you mean Josh Timu gone mate!!
By gees this is a proper game of rugby, there will be some bloody sore bodies at end of this if it keeps up like this.
Quietly will say Thomas Umaga-Jensen looking pretty reasonable.

^ d'oh! Wrong Josh.

 

[Derpus]

How many times can this fluffybunny refer to Brodie Retallick?

 

[Derpus]

They are raving about Will Jordan but that try was all Fainga'anuku.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

^ call it 50/50, Jordan still had a fair bit to do after the Fainga'anuku offload.

 

[Derpus]

You ever get bored of watching a team that can't lose?

 

[Dan54]

I never get bored watching good rugby mate!!! Crusaders will get beaten sometime this year,

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

^ Lost last time out v Clan IIRC. Also not reigning SRTT Champions as certain other posters on here keep reminding me (& moreso themselves I can't help but feeling).

 

[Dan54]

Have to say I thought Frizell had a huge game, clan pack lost a little when he went off I thought.

Sad for some but undoubtedly true for others & that's the point, surely.

Josh Ioane gone for the night

Losing him and Ethan de Groot rogered them. De Groot has to be in black. Preferably at the expense of pudding shartpants Joe Moody. Fantastic maul defense.

Conversely, in no way, shape, or form is "Braydon Ennor" an All Black-level midfielder. Totally unco imposter. All Airport XV.

I thought Frizell being subbed hurt the Clan, he was having a huge game, couple of hits he did one on Scott Barrett were the ones you want, real dominant, got hid whole forward pack going right way, was pretty strong with ball in hand too. Agree on De Groot, he is coming on bloody well, he seems to have a bloody good all round game, carries, tackles well and seems to be pretty ok at scrum time.

Luke Romano. You have to be fucking shitting me. Did he eat Lancaster Park before getting on the plane to Auckland?

 

[Up the Guts]

RTS (Roger Tuivasa-Sheck) unsurprisingly still a freak

 

[Up the Guts]

Canes lucky to be within 20

Forwards save Rieko from looking like a complete lemon for not throwing that final walk-in pass.

 

[zer0]

Hopefully Roger Bill Williams' play-the-ball muscle memory won't cost us too much throughout the season...

 

[Dismal Pillock]

RTS (Roger Tuivasa-Sheck) has done more in his 1st half of rugby than SBW usually did in an entire year

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

JGB? WTF? MIA!
RTS (Roger Tuivasa-Sheck)! WTF! MOM?
