I'm definitely going to re-watch this, because I see a lot of cheering and booing for players that seems over the top.

Good to see everyone putting their balls on the line and posting in the heat of the moment. Far more entertaining than people that come in after the fact and try and act all fucking knowing and wise.

Frizell is mobile, but doesn't appear to have much punch on defense.
Shame Scott Barrett isn't a little quicker.

How ordinary is Whitelock at 8?

Cant remember a more ordinary looking ab 8

Ayoub fucks up 2 tries in a minute there

@mokey Like the first test ....only better
Reminds me of the series aagainst Ireland that time DC put a wobbly old kick over and we won the test at the death courtesy of that droppie in the 2nd test - and then the third test we gave 'em the donut - 60-0

Arron Pene? broomhall?

Not saying that DMac should start at 10 instead of BB, but it's a nice feeling to be confident about kicks going over....

Yes agree with this, he’s been busy and been there but hasn’t fired any knockout blows

Did we ground that one?!?

Not sure, but Whitelock knocked it on in the boot of the scrum in the lead up...

I don't think he did. Looked to me like he just passed it into his players legs and then recovered the ball. I didn't see a knock on. That said, Lacey should have checked (assuming it was within 2 phases)

I’m not as convinced as the commentary that Whitelock knocked that on. It went backwards off a trailing leg

[Bones]

Marshall really is an idiot. He's got no idea what is going on most of the time. Yeah great French scrum! All series in fact!

[Stargazer]

@crucial Was thinking the same thing.

[ShadowTrooper]

Bloody hell Ian Smith - no bias there then

[Virgil]

Great game Dmac great game

[Crucial]

What’s the backline lineup?

JB has gone to 15. Has BFA gone to 13?

[Tim]

The regulation Ben Smith side entry penalty. Don't see them often in Super Rugby though.

[Nepia]

Probably could have given Mo'unga an extra 10 minutes - the game was safe 10 minutes ago.

Luke was ahead of the players leg. So a knock on.

[ShadowTrooper]

Great kick Richie
Man, it feels great to have another Richie out there

[Gunner]

And Nisbo has just worked out that our wingers have swapped sides.
