Also who's sick of the phrase "here's Ioane with his pace"
Said just before someone tackles him. It's like a curse.

@stargazer he doesn’t consistently make good decisions
More Kronfeld

Great first half from both sides before the inevitable.
DMac would walk into most sides either at 10 or 15

He's not a ”walk into” kinda guy.
He might run side to side around the offer, then maybe zigzag into the side. -
Also excellent 'Cockwomble' sign in the crowd

Over the next 12 mons Retallick, Whitelock will be locks with S Barrett at 6.
Barrett is revolutinising the one out quick pass and offloads, creating gaps, as well as providing the hard edge required.
Showing McCawesque mental strength, awesome.For the past few years Todd has had a raw deal, Cane and Todd are way better than anyone else in NZ and Todd is the best at the breakdown

Did remind me though. Is Franks that bad at taking the ball up that they have just given up on working with him? He's dropping to the floor at the slightest hint of a tackle and never attempts any kind of leg drive. Surely the coaches can improve that easily?

If we had a really good promising young 6 , and and an 8 in the system
I would feel more secure that it’s all falling into place

I’m not suggesting dmac replace beaudy, far from it ,
But it is worth noting he gave our backline a different shape last night

I’m sure the coaches will be tweaking his flat passing by just a smidge. I’m sure it’s how the want him to play but he just pushes it too close to disaster. A bit like Cooper used to for the Wallabies. DMac is just lucky that we are often able to regroup better than some teams.
His decision making was very good and his kicking from hand and tee excellent. -

@kirwan Ah, bringing back the Lions game again. Let me bring back Dmac's nightmare in the Maori ABs game against the Lions then.
Mo'unga didn't play behind that pack in the Lions game btw. Most of them were in the AB squad.
I thought the Crusaders and Blues were the 2 SR teams who got to play their full strength teams v the BILs?

Commentary Highlight of the night
Marshy - "What a great start from Richie Mo'unga, he's nailed that a good 45 metres, with no real angle, All Black number 1167"
Nisbo - "do you remember your number?"
Marshy "I do"
Nisbo "Go on"
Marshy - "Yes I do, number nine hundred and forty (pause) TWO.
