Its what I really want to see from a 12- Nonu probably the best example, capable of trucking and stepping. And passing. Who knew :)

I really see very little merit in putting Teo at 13 but you have me worried now. That Italy game was just horrifying. If Francis/Slade/Devoto played like that at 12 they would be cast out the same as Burrell was.
... wait, how was Te'o at any fault for the Italy game? Actually, what did he even do wrong?

Reading that back it's not so clear I was talking about Farrell. I was running on the assumption that the only purpose of moving Teo to 13 is to accommodate the ice-cream man at 12, which I don't see the point in. It wasn't particularly a jab at Teo.

Oh right. With you now.

Dare I ask why Farrell is the ice cream man? :lol:

Maybe it's because Mikey thinks he'd be flakey if there was a 99 call?

I thought it was because he looks like he's excreting one in his place-kick build-up.

Nevermind ice cream, man looks like he's excreting a concrete sculpture of a full roast dinner out there. While considering murdering puppies.
