Re: Wales v New Zealand - Saturday 30th October 2021 | KO – 17:15

I was a big fan of Akira... I thought he had come of age and was going to be the difference maker... the enforcer we have lacked since Kaino left the scene... but when the big test came.. twice against SA... he turned into Reuben Thorne. So I'm out... Poor kids only played about 9 tests. It's his f...

I think a more fitting end would have been if chuck would have died after auto-asphyxiation during prison rape for entrapment. #chefs_kiss Maybe with some prison-made ballgags etc. At least he would've died happy.
