Really impressed with Renton. Always gaining ground. Makes smart decisions. Low error rate player.
Big engine too... goes the full 80

Bit clunky from Renton coming over the top - not ideal for Wright
Grub move. Leading with the knees.

ABs in for a rude awakening when normal reffing applies at test level.
Yup - particularly with the # of French and English refs --- I worry about the rucks mainly - I feel a lot of NZ teams go beyond the rucks often taking players out and also tend to go off their feet a lot ... but it seems to go unseen in Super rugby

NH teams do this, just better at it

some serious discipline in that 'landers defence.
-
Great tackle on the line from Degroot.....so many teams/players have not adjusted well to that rule.

Is Makalio beating on game outcomes?
-
Not good enough from Makalio ... good short ball .. but should have done better

I'd like to see O'Connor's foot from another angle. Very close to the touch line.
Burns' foot saved him from touching the sideline.

Based on that 40mins is hard to say either team deserve to be in the "finals"
