@MiketheSnow

He's just trying to cover for his useless fucking tighthead. Illegally, for sure.

I'm astonished he's made a professional career as a prop.

[Donsteppa]

On the plus side, the haka was fantastic and well co-ordinated.

After that, however...

[MiketheSnow]

Shut up Barnes you fucking idiot.

@Donsteppa Then why didn't the acting clown get a YC in the 1st half with the challenge on Lowe

Citing commissioner can look at that I guess. Two wrongs not making a right otherwise - at least they got one right.

I didn't think that first half collision with Lowe was as bad as some are making.

Feel for Proctor, just back from injury and that one looks serious.

[broughie]

Badly injured shoulder? It's his wrist no?

[Donsteppa]

Hope the Chiefs don't rush TKB back for Tuesday...

[No Quarter]

Another step up from the Lions who continue to improve. The test series is going to be an epic clash of styles.

@Crash it's simple mistakes handing over possession when trying to attack that is the main issue

[hydro11]

Maori forwards haven't been beaten up much worse than the Blues, Crusaders or Highlanders IMO. The problem is that the Maori have had no direction.

[MiketheSnow]

Even if the Lions see this home, we haven't really learned anything.

[gt12]

They've done great to take advantage of the man up time. Now I'm really looking forward to next week.

[taniwharugby]

Oh look, another ball dropped

[Stargazer]

Don't see Dmac in the AB 10/22 jersey any time soon. Or in any AB jersey for that matter.

This is how they have to play to beat a New Zealand team. You probably already knew that though.

[KiwiMurph]

Dmac has been absolutely shithouse.

It was a really tough ask for DMac to play 10 against a team that would bring test match intensity. However this and his appearance for the ABs has shown he struggles to cope at this level.

[Donsteppa]

DMac is over-hyped even for the Chiefs

[Crash]

This looks like a replay of the Black Ferns v England game. Ferns couldn't get any clean ball. And when they did get it, kicked aimlessly away

Whangarei Boys High 2nd XV would have put in a better performance than the Maoris.

Way to give the Lions some confidence, muppets!
