    Laumape got himself stripped by the weakest girl on the pitch at the end, but otherwise he's been very good

    You mean the part where Biggar flopped on top of him and didn't roll away?

    Dammit. They should have snatched that at the end. Pity that stupid first try.

    Jordie should backup Beauden at 10. He shits on Black.

    After nearly proclaiming the BB could walk on water in a post earlier today I now conclude you're the black sheep Barrett uncle shipped of to Oz.

    Very disappointed by the Canes. The game was there for the taking.

    Which one? Replacement half? Starting half wasn't bad ...

    Replacement. TTT has played a few times for the Canes. Both have promising futures.

    Brilliant game. Poite was outstanding. Proper ref.

    Henderson was fantastic. Laumape was too.

    Draw was about it.

    Greg Laidlaw is the slowest passer in history.

    Slowly calming down ...

    But Lousi! How good was he?

    Maul? Yep.

    Held up? Yep.

    By who? Lousi.

    Big strong fluffy rabbit.

    I haven't read any comments yet but the Canes pack barred up better than I expected.

    Laumape is worth a place on the bench on Sat. Unleash him with 20 mins to go.

    Despite the sinbinning Henderson was the more impressive Lions lock.

    @Bovidae Yeah, Henderson played well, and certainly looks better than Lawes. I don't see what is good about Lawes.

    Argh! Fuck, what a frustrating game. Canes played like idiots for most of it. How does ben may get paid to play rugby? I don't understand how it is so hard for players to get it through their thick skull that you can't tackle a player in the air. So often you see guys have a brain explosion and half jumping in the air and tackling the other player. TTT was the culpret in this case but there have been a few recently. Fekitoa was one from memory. Just let him land and dig your shoulder into his ribs.

    For a guy who just got his ABs spot taken Savea was pretty anonymous. One or two good runs and fuck all else. Get into midfield and show you can bend the line rather than waiting on your wing doing nothing.
    NMS had some nice touches but defence was not great. Catching kicks still a worry.

    In the good column was Laumape and Barrett which is encouraging given one or both are a chance at the test team.

    Oh and fuck you Lions you whinging, cheating bunch of chokers.

    A draw! Fuck me days, talk about a game of two halves. Canes played like chumps in the first half, and the Lions were the chumps in the second. Canes bench made a big difference. And there is no way in hell that Poite is a tier one ref. If Ayoub is looking more knowledgeable and competent, you really must be shite.

    Oh yeah, and how the fuck does Ben May keep getting Super contracts? He must have some seriously incriminating pics of someone...

    I thought the 4 All Blacks got better as the game went on. Laumape or Jordie for the 23 jersey on Saturday.

    Young replacement Canes halfback went great guns. Sam Lousi's improvement for me shows difference between Aus and NZ coaching.

    Wonderful game. Lions really brought an attitude to use the ball which was great to watch and effective.

    Made more random calls in favour of the Lions ... therefore Lions fans rate him " proper"
