    I'm wondering whether Read has fully recovered from his back injury. Apparently that sort of an injury takes at least a year to come right post surgery. Look back at the Lions series last year, the guy was immense so am not convinced that he is fully fit atm.

    He played pretty well and was very physical for the crusaders after his layoff.

    He looks to be on his last legs at the moment tho.

    So that's the problem, clearly the Crusaders are working him too hard. 😉

          Playing against Ireland in Ireland is a wee bit different to playing for the Crusaders in a competition where the Crusaders have by far and away have the most stacked forward pack in the competition.

            Savea was the best NZer on the paddock. Read, though not influential, was everywhere.
            Ben Smith did the maximum with the few and poor munitions he got.

              S. Barrett, Crotty, Todd.

              Closely followed by Mo’unga, Goodhue and Franks.

              Whitelock, Read and Taylor let the side down this week.

                You didn't think Savea was one of the top 6 players for the AB's??

                        First time ever that I can remember, two days after the All Blacks played not a single All Black made the Planet Rugby team of the week.

                          8 Irish. 8.

                          For a 7 point win. That’s quite the back handed compliment.

                            @majorrage amusing thing is, if we had won by 25, I highly doubt they'd select 5 AB's let alone 8!
