    Ben May is really past it.

    People have been saying exactly that for about the last five years or so.

    Been listening to the game without the commentary,already been words between Ben May and Tony Lamborn on a couple of occasions,.sounds like there’s not a lot love between these 2..does this stem from the Hawkes Bay days..?

    Ash Dixon scores at least one of those in every MABs game he plays.

    @higgins Sumo is doing decent Laban, well at least for Black, he went through all his iwi.

    It’s weird that Sky couldn’t find at least one Maori to be part of this commentary team.

    @nepia KT is in Raratonga, I think, for a 7s tournament. I assume he'd be commentating if available.

    Thanks, once I found it was Sumo on the mic I immediately muted the sound.

    An honest question so please don't take it the wrong way but is the Maori team open to just those born in NZ or all Maori born anywhere in the world?

    If the USA is just a coincidence then maybe it’s to differentiate from the AB jerseys? They usually do something a bit different. All the supporters gear has red in it this year.

    @higgins I always assumed it's only open to players in NZ. Isn't that the general NZR policy? Never have seen that confirmed, though.

    Edit: read the question wrong. Don't think it matters where they are born.

    Born anywhere as long as they’re playing in NZ. Abel is a bit dicey, especially if he winds up playing for an Oz team in Super rugby.

    Never past the horizontal. If he's penalised, that's bs. Great tackle.

    Perfectly good tackle, nothing illegal whatsoever about it.

    Dumb from Parkinson. He needs to cut the dumb shit out of his game.

    USA comms are calling for a red card.
