Both games were obvious considering form. Sharks nearly beat both the Highlanders and Chiefs (better teams than the Canes) away, of fucking course they were going to beat the Canes at home.

It was also just a matter of time before the chiefs finally choked a whole game, close wins against the blues and sharks were proof that their early season form is dying already

The first time my family got season tickets to the chiefs was the year they didn't win a single home game. One game they scored 5 tries to the opposition's 2 but missed literally every single kick and drew 25-25 they were so fucking desperate to get a kick over they even let Dwayne Sweeney have a go. That year was suffering.

Gonna be Ben Smith at wing with Dagg at fullback. Theyve played with each other a couple times and smashed it every single time

Book it.
>>
>>67487454
>Gonna be Ben Smith at wing with Dagg at fullback.

Nah it won't. If they are gonna move Smith out of his best spot they'd only do it for someone outstanding (like memekenzie if he stops choking so hard). Otherwise they'll rather pick a genuine right wing and leave Smith at 15. Moving him to wing doesn't really give him room to do what he's best at.
>>
>>67487649
Smiths just as prolific on the wing as he is at full back and its worth accomadating Dagg for that combo alone. There is no way Mckenzie starts and 11 Naholo 14 Savea 15 B Smith lacks a little balance.
>>
>>67487717
>lacks balance
Exactly. I don't think moving Smith to a wing will solve that though. He loves to see all the space from fullback and pick his line from the centre of the field. If anything someone else will jump in the open wing spot
>>
Remember back in the old days when if you had a second first five, you'd place him at, you know, second five? Instead of fullback?

I understand why they're putting the wannabe 10s at 15 because 15 involves far more kicking but the whole "12 is a centre who runs and shit" instead of "12 is an additional 10 who has most of the same skills" is a change I'm not a massive fan of. Dan Carter spent most of his early years at 12, I don't think he would be as great at ordering a backline if they had stuck him at 15

Obviously smug is v good at 15 so maybe he's not a pure 10 but I think when he inevitably moves there he won't be as good given how much time he will have spent at 15.
>>
I think they should just stop trying to pick the best XV regardless of position. Honestly I feel like some of you guys would want Cruden, Smug, Barrett AND B Smith in the starting XV, and suddenly we're stacked with fucking meme utility backs. And imagine if Colin Slade was still here.

Meme utility backs became a thing because no one could tip Carter and they thought the way to get all these great players in was to hamfist them into random positions. Seeing Slade and Barrett on the wing just makes me sigh. Since when was wing a suitable alternative to 10?
>>

Are you saying there's a direct link between a 10 that can play 15 and the amount of spaghetti he produces?

>>67488068
It's because the game has changed senpai
12 being a play maker position is a change in like
>>67488147
I have not seen a team with all 4 if those players on any thread from memory
>>
>>67488068
I agree, the big bosh 12 is a tactic that really doesn't seem to work now that defences have gotten so much better, unless they can also pass and do other stuff like Nonu. It might actually be why England performed so much better than expected this 6N, having Farrell in as a second five. even with a backline that was very much inferior on paper they managed to be a lot better organised
>>
>>67487866
Youre saying like Dagg is a poor option at full back

Saders are going to make a deep play off run and are pushing favourites to win it. Dagg is their starting fullback and is looking very impressive

> loves to see all the space from fullback and pick his line from the centre of the field
Ben Smiths game was an adaption of what Dagg brought in 2010. Albeit improved
>>
>>67488197
I really just think there's been a shift in mentality between the positions since Nonu changed what 12 meant. It was always that the first two guys on the backline were playmakers and skinny white guys with game knowledge, now it seems that it's only the first guy, and the second two are big barging centres to crash through the line. And because of this change everyone seems to think that there's a closer link between 10 and 15 than 10 and 12. I don't understand why the chiefs didn't put smug at 12. Sure, fullback was where they had a bigger gap, but I feel like 12 is the place where someone like Barrett or Slade should have been (if Nonu didn't exist). It would give smug better skills at running a backline and attacking from set pieces. But now just watch as they replace Nonu with someone like Ngatai who is basically just a centre.

I mean, props to Nonu for redefining the position, but there's no reason we can't go back to someone in the vein of Aaron Mauger. It could also solve our goalkicking woes if we had a 12 that could kick.
>>
>>67488227
>the game has changed

I don't see why it can't change back? Imagine if we had Cruden at 10, Smug at 12 and B Smith at 15? And then just one big smashy centre, not two. I just think that Nonu worked so well at 12 that the whole country has been blinded to the fact that someone like Dan Carter was elite there for two years
>>
>>67488352
Its more the defensive side of the game

You want two big, powerful defenders in the middle of the park. Losing metres on the gainline on the wings and on cover defense isnt ideal but wont cost you that many points. Or at least it can be made up with more offensive selections at full back

If one team is making consistent gains and breaks through midfield 9 times out of ten they will win.

Far better to have the second playmaker at full back
>>
>>67488197
youre on to something here mate

/rug/s third law of /rug/

'the meme potential of any fly half or 10 or first five eight is directly proportional to their true potential at full back and inversely proportional to their true potential at 12'
>>
>>67488417
>big smashy centre

But "our" centre was not big or smashy. C Smith was a great space maker for wings to do their job and played very intelligently. Nonu countered this by being the big smashy player that played quite straight up, he had to be 12 because early on in his career he would do stupid shit often or mess up plays and need the forwards and more players close to back him up.
>>
>>67488563
I'm pretty sure any fly half that is forced to play a position that isn't fly half because they're not good enough is a meme
>>
>>67488863
It's the "needs experience" while not good enough to replace our starting player meme
>>
>>67488966
Yeah, and this is my argument that playing at 12 will give you better "experience" of the role a 10 plays than playing at 15. Worked for Carter, I fear 15 is just going to turn MemeKenzie into a meme utility
>>
>>67488352
just sounds like you want Crotty at 12 and not many people disagreeing with you. 12 Crotty and 13 Fekitoa is the most likely starting combo and has been for a couple weeks now.

All Blacks seem really really keen to develop and push Fekitoa to his limits. Develop a kicking game etc. Just needs to not kill his gf and he'll be fine
>>
>>67489086
It seems like he wants to play meme utility though. He was offered contracts for starting first five eight but turned them down
>>
reminder if barrett comes off the bench and gets a favourable bounce I will glass someone
>>
>>67489145
Yeah true. Honestly, it's early on in his career and people are constantly putting him as someone who will eventually switch to 10, maybe he doesn't want to do that. It may explain his decision to not take the crusaders' offer, because that seemed ideal. Though, as much as he doesn't seem to be turning heads, new brown 10 is doing moderately well for the crusaders. I mean, they are top of the table with a match in hand
>>
>>67489306
I can seem him going either way. He is in the top couple for both positions in NZ right now and just needs to commit to one or the other

2bh there is no reason why you can't be the dedicated kicker and fullback. In everyone's mind you can't be that combination for some reason which seems strange to me because as far as big long range kicks go fullback is the place for that
>>
>>67489130
If you look at Ngatai vs Crotty who comes out on top?
Stats wise Ngatai has had a better season but you don't know how he will play in a black jersey

>I'm not saying that's the only difference is just want to start that conversation
>>
>>67489529
>2bh there is no reason why you can't be the dedicated kicker and fullback
Yeah no shit there are plenty of past examples, but the reason the queefs have gone back to Cruden is because a) Smug was getting a little bit shit and b) if Cruden doesn't kick for the ABs, who the fuck will?

>>67489692
Crotty has international experience and operates behind an international level pack. He's consistent and wins. Has the Conrad smith gene of knowing exactly when to pass and when to hit it up, something ngatai hasnt perfected yet

Ngatai has been excellent no doubt but the chiefs backline gameplan is built around high risk attack and hoping the forward pack bail them out. Landers tired the pack and the backline looked lost. Im sure he can transition into the test arena but the stats dont reveal the style of attack the teams have been running.

I watch test match cricket when it's on, but I don't care enough about it to engage with it in any meaningful away aside from on weekends in summer with a beer.

I played baseball when I was a kid but there are like a million games in a season and I don't have a favourite team or cable so I basically just watch the Eries.

I find rugby league too boring. I'll watch SoE but only because what else are you going to watch on a wednesday night?

Hockey I don't really get. I watched a couple of games when I was snowboarding in Canada (go Vernon Vipers!) but when you're streaming it I find it really hard to follow - you can't really see where the puck is, but I guess it's kind of exciting.

I disagree entirely. I've never seen a professional sport that's as messy as AFL.

The whole game just devolves in to a scramble of people trying to pick up a ball and failing. I also don't like that any sniff of a fair, hard tackle is a penalty in AFL.

all i know is that tacklings how you describe it, but the point of tackling is to stop the other person (as it is in any other game). Except you stop the other player from getting rid of the ball, the game just goes to a random ball up, so all the defenders effort goes to nothing
