Been this theory going around as he was injured that a dit DMac would have made all the difference at RWC.
This game reveals that theory to be poke.
Yeah, let's ignore all games that DMac played (including tests) before injury and rate him on this abortion alone.

Losing Kiwi team beaten up in the forwards again... quel surpris
Going to happen again and again and again, until our sides pick and develop Forwards that are Forwards and do the job of Forwards, rather than honorary backs.

There were gaping holes in his game when he was good. People accepted them, or at least overlooked them, because of the positive impact his attack had.
He's been decidedly average this year and dogshit in this game. There's no upside to his play.

less of the 'athlete', more of the 'mongrel'.

Which doesn't negate the fact this game has little relevance to what he would have contributed to the RWC team if he wasn't injured.

Defensively he’s always varied between someone who can hammer a big runner in the last line of defence, and at other times can look like a wet bus ticket attached to the end of a turnstile. A very gifted yet mercurial player.

Uh.... "back"?

Poor performance from the Chiefs tonight but they have enough quality in their squad to hit back. A bye week next week may have come at the perfect time to allow them to reset.

Waratahs have been disowned, its true.

@NTA didn’t everyone say the chiefs were favourites after they beat us.

Well that's an academic argument and I'd suggest Mounga was a better play maker and Beaudy a better fullback, so not much. Particularly in a game where our forwards were dominated.
