Māori All Blacks vs British and Irish Lions

[No Quarter]

The mist made the Haka look quite cinematic. Awesome - bring it on!

[Gunner]

Fark, what an awesome Haka.
If the game has the same intensity as that, we're in for a treat!

[MajorPom]

Stunning Haka! Spine chilling. Sensational

[gt12]

Terrible forward pass missed there before Messam can't roll away.

Lions up.

0-3 after 4 mins

[MiketheSnow]

Great start for the Lions.

But that was fucking shit from Murray. Use the free play FFS.

Halfpenny good with the penalty.

NZ Maori 0 - 3 BI Lions

[gt12]

Terrible nervous start by the MABs. Poor kicks, missed tackles, and dropped catches.

And letting a bloody fly half counter ruck and ruin your ruck ball.

Another dropped ball.

I hope the Maori didn't use everything up in that Haka!

[kiwiinmelb]

Yeah looking very nervous, they need to settle into a groove before it's too late

[gt12]

Ioane not helping his chances with that miss.

[Bones]

Messam had one job, don't get carried out.

Lowe, Reiko, Messam, Franklin all putting the team under pressure.

[Stargazer]

Lucky! Messam's in!

[mariner4life]

This halfback rolling the ball back with his hands in front of ref is really fucking me off

Mess!

[Gunner]

And just like that, the Maori are in.

[Crash]

Messam takes the opportunity on offer..TRY!!!

[No Quarter]

Lovely little chip from NMS but North made a mess of that. That'll hopefully settle the Maori down a bit.

[Disgusted of TW]

I guess North and Halfpenny aren't used to playing together.... ffs

[Crash]

Fuck I'd be peppering North all day with high balls

[Gunner]

Akira in beast mode on that kick return

[MiketheSnow]

That was shit from North. Twice.

Didn't mark the line out, then dropped on the ball like a geriatric.

[Disgusted of TW]

@mariner4life I think I heard Peyper discussing it with him just before the Maori try - warning?
