New job for assistant coach

[Kiwi Eagle]

Part of the pre game ritual for the coaches should now be pouring a bucket of water over Olakau’atu’s head

First half was more of the same of the part of his game that frustrates me at times, gets the ball flat footed, and just jogs into the line, and he still makes an impact. 2nd half when his hair got wet what a difference, ran hard onto the ball, great lines and the momentum of our side on attack changed dramatically as he skittles through them

I hate seeing Saab take tough runs out of trouble when Haumole is standing beside him

Don’t often see Guaca winding up when getting the pill, though that ball off the hip from Brown he was in stride.

From the first set of six tonight the team were playing with that back five doing the first 3 hit ups and Turbo on the fifth..

 

[Rackets]

Seibold should sit Ola and Paseka down and make them watch hours of Nathan Brown taking hit ups. These 2 guys are both so big and powerful and hardly use it to their advantage. Most of their hit ups are shallow runs or from standing starts. C'mon fellas smash the opposition 🏃💪

Giving huge long term contracts can also work the other way in creating comfortability. I see it in soccer a lot overseas. still unsure of us doing this as most teams don't??? If Ola and Paseka end up like Tom with the injuries we are in for years of salary cap restraints. DCE did turn out great though.

Think it needs to be a sign of the times now, with 3 expansion sides looking likely in the next 5 years coming to pick the bones out of clubs longer deals give a bit of extra security to fight that off
