how did CTM go when he came off the bench?
Similar with DHP - didn't look like a last minute replacement, just slotted straight in and didn't miss a beat.
We had a number of unusual looks yesterday. At one point Stander went off for blood and Tessman came on - so a hooker playing 6. And the backs ended up playing with Elbesohn, Cummins, Godwin, Brache, Prior, Holmes and CTM - one 9, two 10s, 3 centres and a wing. yet I didn't see any muddles with players standing out of position - all just slotted in and played as if they'd trained there. God knows how Foley and the staff do that!
ESPNScrum gives the following tackle/missed tackle counts:
Hodgson 17/4
McCalman 16/0 (!)
Godwin 15/2
Longbottom 12/0
Brache 12/2
Steenkamp 11/2
Coleman 10/0
Stander 10/0
Cottrell 10/1
DHP 8/0
That's 10 players with 8 or more tackles!
Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
He was very good. Like I said in another thread, saw him play for Easts in the Shite Shield a couple weeks back and he missed a lot of tackles and was dragged. A pleasant surprise for sure. Maybe the Beastie Boys defence structures aren't up to S15 standard was the problem rather than CTM himself.

I thought Chieka (however way you spell it..) look uncharacteristically subdued in the box on Saturday..I wonder if he held back because of the upcoming hearing.. ???
I also liked the way Link put the Plonkers from Fox in their place about the decision by the ARU to keep Izzy out..
And where was Sharpie TIF???
Thank you Greg, told him "the chipmunks were going nuts in Perth" after the game on Saturday, the reply "go the chipmunks"
hahahahahahaha

nice one, good to see him finally admit that the Tahs have a one man backline. He also suggested that they had no chance against the force when one man down! That's a pretty big statement from a bloke who tipped the afore to win the wooden spoon this year. That means that Israel Folau is the difference between a super rugby title and the wooden spoon. I mean hes good but.......
