To me, it seems like Maurie has gone downhill since his first season(2006?). He doesn't seem to break nearly as many tackles as he used to, and I wonder whether he has sacrificed some of his size for fitness? A bad decision IMO, what we need from Fa'asavulu is impact, not minutes.
I agree, he has his games, but more often than not he isn't making as much impact as he did/should be. IMO, the reason for this is that he trys to run at the man and smash the man out of the way a lot of the time, were he used run into gaps which makes him much harder to tackle.
