Wellington v Canterbury

@Chris-B 35 years old next month i really thought love would have got closer to him , JM kept 3 or metres on him throughout the whole chase
Would have been interesting race if Harkin had been defending in that 15 position -
@Steven-Harris Yeah - Johnny hasn't gone the way of a few wings - losing all their speed in their late-20s.
There will be a few Wellington forwards who won't enjoy reviewing Grace's try.
They all waited for someone else to chase back - and Cullen was the only guy who chased hard. He came from more than 10 metres behind and outran them.

@Chris Yeah - I think that's the purpose of swapping Chapman and Drummie.
Ta$man has Christie and Hotham, so whomever is behind them probably won't get much time - that's OK for Mitch at the tailend of his career, but they want Chapman playing.
Yep that is exactly the reason for the swap.

Concerning that Love made no impression on the chase on JM whos not exactly a spring chicken
Concerning is going a bit far. McNicholl showed in Super Rugby he still has genuine wheels
That’s Super Rugby 2025 champions McNicholl showing he still has genuine wheels
McNicholl has never been an easy run down.
Impressed with the good guys second half. A couple of shining lights in there amongst the vets and newer guys.
Is McAlister injured?

@Crazy-Horse Runs great lines for smallish loosefoward ,thought he was the Lions most effective forward.
Looks like a centre in the way he runs the ball.
