Not giving the Lions enough credit. But yes, Chiefs forwards don't look very efficient. <br><br>
The way their backs were celebrating tries while still trailing didn't say much for determination either.<br><br>
Damian McKenzie, apart from being small, has all the skills to play at a very high level but the arrogance is gonna hold him back. -

<p>Didn't catch the game but doesn't sound like I missed much. What a shit start to what'll be a fuckin tough next few weeks, with them flying from NZ to SA (which'll at least only be the Kings), then to Argentina and then straight back to NZ.</p>

<p>Actually Unco you missed a cracker of a game. Doesn't make it bad because the Chiefs lost, that was a bloody good performance by the Lions!</p> -

<p>Ok I'll play, I like to learn new things</p>

<p>How is this obvious arrogance going to hold him back?</p> -
How does it hold anyone back?<br><br>
You don't work as hard as you should. Your game doesn't evolve. Your decision making differs. The list goes on.<br><br>
You can disagree about his attitude though. Maybe I'm reading it all wrong and he's the first one at practice and the last one to leave. I'm just going by the little I've seen of him on the field. -

<p>Agree... but that's not McKenzie. Do you even know the first thing about him off the field?</p> -

He smiles when he's shooting for goal? -

The smile is weird but I'm more referring to his OTT celebration when scoring. Way he went off you'd have thought they'd just won a title. -

<p>I seem to recall Breyton Paulse doing some impressive post try celebrations, but I've never thought he came across as arrogant because of them.</p>

But hey Habana was ever the stern, humble player on the field, same with Matfield and especially Botha. Not some of the most arrogant fellas around at all, they would've been shit otherwise. I mean, who was that git who raced a cheetah? Never heard from him again.
