        N O is best ref in world. That was a very good reffing performance.

        He definitely is. If WR want to come down hard on tackles around the head then the dangerous neck roll on Ardie should be a YC every day of the week though.

        Yeah but I'm ok with it. So long as he's consistent within the game.

              Gatland's tied with the Lions to earn coin. Probable sees himself as Assistant to his very old mate Foz.

                  Speed of everything from the AB's is killing the Irish. Assembling maul defence, returning to defensive line after tackling, passing at the line.

                        Farrell senior's defence has been ruthlessly exposed. All Blacks creating and exploiting space at will. Brutal route one from the first Lions Test creating that space.

                                99% tackle rate so far for the ABs vs 85% for Ireland.

                                Metres run for ABs 214 vs Ireland 93.

                                          Best half, performance wise, in years.

                                          Agreed. Accuracy has been outstanding.

                                          Their problem now is to fix the error rate will mean being even slower but they need points. They look tired too. This next half may hurt.
