Congrats to the Tahs, defended like demons.
Control the gainline and NZ is bereft of backline players who can construct anything when we are in a position where we can't trade possession for territory.

Do you jokers really think that Tupaea will replace Rieko Ioane at centre?
Apart from a couple of early good games, he seems to of slipped right off the pace doesn't he? He seems to just carry into defence as a default setting.

I am pleased Wrampling is getting a start. I think he is one the best young midfielders going around in NZ at Super level. I really hope he can stay injury free from now on.

Well that was one big disappointment. He let himself down big time. I only saw the first half, did he come back on after the yellow? Hopefully it's a lesson learnt for him. I have never noticed that behaviour in him before.

Was replaced by Rona
I thought that might happen. Like most of the team, his mindset appeared to be way off the mark.

@KiwiMurph great shout at the time I know the scoreboard says it was close but imo the victory from the Tahs was well deserved
-
What's with Clayton's refusal to pick Narawa at 13?
Narawa was a star at 13 for BOP but Clayton refuses to give him a run there
It's weird. Everyone else gets a go
ALB
Tupaea
Rona
Wrampling@KiwiMurph it was a massive error imo , I thought Baylin Sullivan did a great job of completely shutting down Sualii a few weeks back but to bring a rookie in Wrampling for last nights game was just beggered belief , Narawa was superb at 13 for Bop last year and looked more of a threat when he came on
Coaches are to shift when it comes selection at times -

Bad week to have D Mac as my fantasy captain
All good mate. I think everyone has him as their captain.
@Canes4life I removed his captaincy and gave it to Tavatavanawai...hoping that pays off

Just getting to the last act now. O'Donnell is physically impressive
It will be interesting to see what he could do in the Lions series.

Think he will make the Tahs v Lions game but Ikitau probably slightly ahead on experience.

Try of the season
Apart from the last pass being 2-3 metres forward.
Yes the hands went backwards, but if you look closely that was after release.
Having said that, justice done after that erroneous simultaneous contact TMO call.

Maybe they should have gone to photographer not the TMO

There is another pic that looks an awful lot like he has places ball on sideline.

Trouble with photos they just pick whichever frame suits your point of view. -
