    No real surprise though. It's basically how the Canes have gone this super season against teams with superior forwards. The biggest difference is that we don't have BB and TJ to get us out of trouble and create tries from nothing.

    Looking at the replay of the Lions try - they must be offside, but at least enough for an assistant to say something.

    The reffing of that last maul was a joke. The canes were average, but they were taken down by players coming around the side that the ref fucking called out.

    Why would the Canes go for a driving maul with their backs?

    Because NZ backs have been shithouse dealing with the rush defence?

    If only the players and coaching staff had an example of how to deal with the rush defence favoured by Gatland.

    Best, Henderson, Lawes, Tipuric and Stander going well.

    Biggar solid, North looking like he's interested at least.

    Well taken try from Seymour.

    Halfpenny showing why he was in the 1st Test 23.

    Can he be considered for the 2nd Test after playing 70 mins?

    Nowell trying too hard.

    Joseph annonymous. Where has his form gone?

    Laidlaw, get him off.

    That second Lions try looks dodgy on the replay, the player who caught the ball kept advancing despite being in front of the kick.

    Considering we've recently seen a penalty for a player advancing on a kick when the ball when straight out they can consider themselves lucky.

    I have just paused the replay of the Lions try from the intercept, maybe it is the camera angles but they look suspiciously offside.

    @taniwharugby With that forward pack, and no Beauden Barrett and TJP, they are pretty, pretty average.

    Yep, back to the canes of old!

    You needed to pause?

    Great try.

    That tapping / rubbing the head / pulling people off by their collars needs to be eradicated. #itsnotfootball
