    Second half wasn't the prettiest but overall stoked with the mana. #ouryear or whatever.

      Ben Te'o has had some good touches. Monstered the young Chiefs 13 a couple of times too.

      :astonished_face: I was going to say it's hard to tell he was a starting Lions back on this performance. Not that he's been well served by the players inside him.

        @antipodean funny how we see different things! Guess I was watching him and comparing him to the shit SBW of the last few years.

          Like the fact we have used this match to blood some of the young guys in the team. Give them a real taste of SR in front of a big crowd, they will be better for it

                    I saw fuck all of the game but when I did happen to look up, it looked as though Dmac was carving up and breaking tackles.

                    Was this the case for most of the match??

                      He had a very good game. Ran nice lines and created lots. Had a big moment in defence as well. Stopped a certain try and turned the ball over

                        I could not watch the game. How did Trask fare ? I think he was overwhelmed by the occasion against the Blues, he is a better player than what we saw in Eden Park.

                            I can’t recall any bad misses but I may have missed something. Those stats can be misleading by counting desperation cover tackles as misses.
                            Trask had a solid game. Still finding his feet and not trying too much. Helps to have good service though.
                            Falcon also showed a couple of nice touches and looked quite sharp

                              Yep, if defensive liabilities like Mounga and Reece are going to be first choice for the ABs we need to pick solid but uncreative players like Bridge in the back 3 to clean up the mess.

                                  @Crucial I think the stat is correct, but what stats don't show is where a tackle was missed and what the impact of the miss was.

                                    Just a reminder, yes Dylan Nel was playing. Not that anyone else would have known
