Best defensive centre in NZ with a cracking attacking play...

Seriously, Is it his time?

He’s basically a less breakable Ngatai and he’s only 25.

I know I would, but can't really see it. Crotty, Goodhue, ALB, Laumape, SBW. It's a long queue.

Queue gets smaller when you take out injuries.

Funniest line from Nisbo "now he looks to link up!"

It was Ardie Savea. No he doesn't.

Nisbo now sounds like a video game commentator where he just has a small number of phrases that get recycled

"Looks to link up"

"Now the race is on"

"Puts his foot down"

"Snapped up by"

@antipodean although if fit, those are likely the first 2 names...

[antipodean]

Lions scrum 5m out results in a try. That's all your fault Christie.

For the first game perhaps. After that it's someone else's turn.

That would be funny if it weren’t almost certainly true.

Christie has managed to turn me off him in just 40 minutes of play. His passing was poor all half.

To be fair, it’s traditionally taken me much less than 40 minutes to turn others off.

Christie is so fucking shit, passes too low regularly

Although is that guy Booth on the reserves? His performance at McLean park was close to the worst performance from a 9 I've ever seen - Eaton level.

[ShadowTrooper]

Bloody hell when is TJ back?

[taniwharugby]

@shadowtrooper he's out for JUne series isnt he?

[Nepia]

Great finishing by Lam.

[ShadowTrooper]

And BLAM obliges us with a typical try scored in the corner

Less of an issue as we have TKB for the bench.

Wait.

Ah fuck!

[antipodean]

Gee Lam made that look easy.

[Machpants]

What a kick!

[ShadowTrooper]

@taniwharugby well that's pretty shite...

[taniwharugby]

@shadowtrooper maybe there's another Barrett brother who can play 9?

[Machpants]

Great try, awesome kick then mushroom head decides to give away a stupid penalty. Coach killer

[Stargazer]

@nepia Maybe they're finally going to try Dmac at halfback.
