    Savea's loss of pace and power is a mystery to me. He's only 27 ffs. This should not be happening.

    He's very steady now tho. Excellent under the high ball, and great decisions. Still made most metres, second equal defenders beaten. Just his explosiveness through the tackle is gone.

    Much better than the wallaby winger, zero runs!

    Yeah fair point, he's still a very good SR winger, but will always be compared to himself when he was in his prime. Imagine the shit he'd get if as you say if he had 0 (0!) runs like Koroibete - for a Wallaby winger that is nowhere near good enough.

    @machpants yeah it's just that confidence and finishing finesse that is clearly horribly lacking. Where it used to be give him 40 metres and some cover to beat it's no question, it's now where is the support.

    That last chance Savea had to score last night, I think Lam, Laumape or Aso would have finished it. Maybe Jordie too. That was telling for me.

    @hydro11 agree entirely. It's crazy how the magic just goes. After about two strides you knew he wouldn't make it. Still had a good game though and def can't fault the effort.

    @majorrage I thought it hit 40 at one point last year...? think the last Aus win goes well back to 2016?

    edit looks like rd 15 2015 was the last (a quick scan, so I might be wrong)

    Brumbies spanked the 'Canes in R1 2016. Reds also beat Highlanders 28-27 that year.

    Fox Sports said Tahs beating Chiefs in 2016 is the last time.

    @kiwimurph I checked, and that's indeed the last time an Aussie team beat a Kiwi team. Waratahs 45 - 25 Chiefs. Played in week 14 on Friday, 27 May 2016.

    Wow. Just when you thought their inability to win the Bledisloe was the problem in Oz, now they're incapable of beating them in a tier below. For the good of the competition, that needs to end soonish. 05 May would be a handy start because if the Tahs get into June without a win against New Zealand competition, SR here is dead.
