        Let’s just enjoy watching our best ever halfback, only a few more times we will witness his greatness.

            Signature performance by Aaron Smith so far.

                100% JB so important to the backline and general kicking.

                    That delayed pass from RM to Jordie was excellent, too.

                        This type of game will cement Mo’unga in the team for the rest of the tournament (I don’t think he would be dropped anyway btw).

                        He’s been excellent on attack (great short ball there) as he usually is against teams that have given up on defense. His kicking from hand won’t be noticed at all.

                        Btw, his goal kicking has been excellent.

                          Welcome back Jordie

                          He's always been solid at 12 - apart from the France game.

                          Not spectacular at 12, just reliable. Which is exactly what I like.

                            Kieran Crowley seemed genuinely positive in the build up, but it looks like his players have been having nightmares all week.

                              I’m fine with him at 10, get rid of BB get JB to exit etc.

                                Hold my beer BB with a pushed shit pass... yet another shitty decision - some may think I am being harsh .... but he seriously takes the lowest percentage play 90% of the time...

                                    He won’t be dropped so we need to use Jordie’s boot much more.

                                        So much for worrying about Italy as opponents. They have been shocking in this match. Miserable fare.
