@Bones Are you just allergic to praising Mo'unga and criticising DMac?
@Bones has a documented Mo'unga derangement syndrome, it's easy to filter out if you're aware of it. It's sad but it's not going to change and it's best just to acknowledge it and to get on with things.
Brilliant. I've been vocal since last year about how Beauden is cooked and Mounga is the way forward, then I criticise Christie and canerbry has to stop his fufu over Mounga mid stroke because apparently I've an issue with Mounga 🤣 where's that documentation?
Are you saying it's deranged to think Mounga is our best ten?

Good start
Less good finish
Happier than I was last week
Should add I've only seen first 20 minutes + highlights.
Thanks for clarifying. Essential to have everything up front and out in the open.

Re the come back:
I don't think it was down to Smith and Mo'unga.
I'm putting it down to our forwards sorting their shit out.And I'll have to watch again, but didn't think DMac went that badly.
Watched the first half and have to agree. The forwards put themselves under a lot of pressure in the 1st 20 with mistakes - particularly Sami T & Laulala. D was good - kept the score down
Def. shift in the 2nd 20 mins and the error rate dropped significantly, though DMac's kicking was poor.
Kinda the same thoughts re Christie, but he's my No.4 No.9 ...
100%

Most of the best bits for an Aussie fan.

AB lineout was pants for much of first half.

Did I imagine Ardie kicking like a 12 at one point of the game?

Not looking that flash for Retallick and Ennor off for scans on knee injuries.
Fark.
Feel for Ennor, but we can replace him.
Replace Ennor as a 13 backup? Not a great range to choose from but I assume big L's stock has risen..

Yes it was a well executed kick, but he should've passed

It was actually a contestable kick, which our guys knocked on

Yeah as I said, well executed. But he was 3 on 1 and should've passed instead

In that I've still got space to get fucking angry about our fuck ups in the last 60
