    Ioane miraculously springs back to his form from 3 seasons ago. Come back Josh!

    He played well, threatened the line, broke the line, setup others into space.

    Josh is in desperate need of consistency and a Super team where he's the sole option at 10. IMO that will either be the making of him as a Test 1st Five or he can earn some big money overseas doing his thing.

      Yeah, usually passing is his strength but it was pretty average last night, oddly. Still, it was great to see the return of his excellent manipulation of space. If that excellent wide ball returns he's one of the most dangerous attacking first fives in NZ.

        Ioane was shit and they still trounced them. Not that the Irish 10 was much better. Big lad, tho.

        Irish injury count was bad for being the first game on tour. How that prop was allowed back on the field after falling on his arse is a mystery. Clearly they don't want Cian Healy banged up too badly before the first test, so they'll sacrifice the brain potential of a rookie.

          I don't think it's worth gnashing teeth over the backrow.

          Plenty of options available. The incumbents will be feeling the pressure, if they don't play the absolute house down then they won't be there long.

            If being an important cog in most of the Maori tries is shit, I look forward to him improving. The only way is up baby!

              I've just watched a replay. Ioane showed some nice touches leading to some of the tries. He's a confidence player.

                Finally got to watch the game.

                How much money would you put on Zarn being an AB?

                    Mad that the medical team didn't just look at the big screen, or sky! It was obvious at the time, and replayed

                      They only have the small screen that the Sky sideline commentator uses to look at. The TMO should be in communication with the medical team as they have access to all footage.

                          Often the endless replays you see on TV is not what we see on the big screen at the match. Hopefully they have a better system in place now.

                              I must admit, I didn't notice it on big screen at game. Surely if he stumbled when Irish medical team was there, they would of mentioned it though.

                                seems bit of a miss all round...team mates, opposition, officials, surely they all know the rules/regulations?...even the player, given we have seen the odd player take themselves off following a knock that was missed by officials?
