Been an average night for DMac
Yeah, but he deserves a big up-vote for that piece of defence after the Fijian intercept.

That right there was the perfect example of doing something good and it being the absolute wrong thing to do
Ioane comes out the side. Gets back, is at pillar, then drives in to the maul and destroys it.
The Fiji ball carrier runs right through where he just came from.
We still had two defenders there that should have plugged the gap, so I can let this one slide. At least he pushed back the maul rather having the impact of wet TP

….I really want to know where this conversation went now
Away from rugby
Stats were interesting, we had 71% territory by the end. Something that the ABs often don't do. Even Vs lower teams. Only 23 kicks from hand which is low, too

Akira showed some great signs, bit in and out of the game but when he was in, it was great - hoping he can bring that against T1 too.
Jacobson plays way above his size eh, again reminded me of good Read.
Ardie was pretty damn rusty.
Havili and ALB went great guns individually apart from one nice piece of interplay but not much of a combo - be great to see when they click.
Ioane goes alright on the wing eh! Our bench could end up being deadly...
Congrats to Taukieaho, that's quite a debut, strong game.
What's going on with Taylor? Burnout?
Seen a few doubting Bower but I noticed he's a pretty accurate defender.

Yeah I'm not having a crack at him for it he did well in what he did. But the outcome was the worst

True. Not one for any ab that I remember. Outside of that he was pretty impressive imo

Really? How many errors? Busy but not hugely effective a lot of the time. I'm comparing him to Ardie... don't get defensive...
