Chiefs v B&I Lions

[Wreck Diver]

@mariner4life apparently its only NZ sides that don't play to the laws of the game

Daly is the only Lions back who can straighten the line and pass into space at the same time.

That's why he's the only one who will be in the Test 23 on merit.

Biggar may get there if Farrell is injured.

[reprobate]

@mariner4life yep. Breakdown work and defence and kicking are all good now, and set pieces solid. Some glimpses of creative play - still making a few handling / communication / combination errors - but that is all improving every game, and that wasn't a bad Maori team that they totally dominated.

Nah - It's NZ sides who think only they play to the laws of the game. 😉

Get Laidlaw off FFS.

Davies will show he's there on merit.

[MiketheSnow]

Why the fuck is AWJ on the park?

Absolutely. He has been a complete plodder and looks disinterested.

[Derm McCrum]

Unsurprising decision.

@Pot-Hale no, we push the boundaries like everyone, but listening to the British Comms, we are the only ones that play outside the rules.

[Derm McCrum]

Henderson is enjoying himself more and more.

[Donsteppa]

Super Coach remembers that he has a bench.

Ah well, that's cos you're listening to British commentators. I sympathise. 😘

[Wreck Diver]

@Pot-Hale No I think you will find that the moral high ground is always held by the squeaky Nth Hem sides.

@Pot-Hale thought I'd give it a crack, even though Marshall has the night off

[Stargazer]

Who has gone off for Messam?

Rookie error, tonight was the night to brave the NZ commentary accordingly

[MiketheSnow]

Lawes is back, AWJ off.

No sub Lawes for Hill. Lawes looks fucked.

[KiwiMurph]

Christie was excellent - well done that man.
