@kiwimurph Yep, and I'll add Toala. I saw him play again on the weekend and that kid just got something. Both of them probably more post-RWC2023.

But at a much lower level. And wasn't he not even a certain selection for HB. But he's young still (21 - 22 in 2 days). He looked a player to watch in his one start for the Canes back in 2019. So was surprised he was ignored last year, Esp with the limited Chase Tiatia getting a number of starts

@duluth was walking very gingerly in the lead up to the cross kick try and did not look any better as the match progressed

@steven-harris he stayed on for 25 minutes after that try though. And it looked like he was still able to get up to full speed when he needed to. They were certainly working on his calf earlier in the game.

Did Jordie Barrett use arms in the tackle at just past 3 mins in?

Weirdly he seemed to be able to sprint more freely than jog or walk. Good attitude to play through and kept busy.

I see the referees made a picture to defend the conversion decision (shown on the breakdown)
Red lines, red circles. Could've done with some arrows

@duluth the fact that 2 officials standing UNDER the posts thought it missed, yet people on TV and sitting in the stands clearly had a better view than them.

@duluth How is there an argument on this? The ref under that post is surely the only one who can see if has gome between the uprights! FFS I a Canes man but can't believe anyone seeing it on tv or somewhere in ground thinks they got better angle. There are getting to be some serious whingers in our our game!
