AUNZ XV vs British and Irish Lions
-
I think it probably reinforces that if you're going to throw an invitational side together to play the Lions, it needs to be at the start of the tour when the Lions haven't spent much time together either. The NZ Baabaas side did a great job against the Lions in 2017 with nowhere near the quality of players that this AUNZ team has access to.

Lions far superior, but are they tiring? Running into some big hard bodies.
@nostrildamus All that consumption of ice cream, cookies and pies by the AUNZ XV in the week will mean they are firing on all cylinders in the last ten minutes.

Lam is playing well. Shannon can tackle hard. They've contained Samu well but he still looks good at this level (to me). Our 10 is playing ok methinks, cleaned up a few near disasters.
DH and SS don't look like good selections as potential AB bench prospects. Lam does (but I've said that before). Oh and Fakatava is just passing (plus some kicks earlier) but it's been fast, efficient and accurate. -
Cowan-Dickie injury looks nasty
-
"Touching me touching you" lots of hopeful hands in the crowd tonight. Obviously came here for the Neil Diamond concert.

Also, a disturbing amount of Saffa jerseys in the crowd

is there such a thing as a non-disturbing amount of Saffa jerseys?

Van Der Meow.

This is Aidan Ross's fourth game against the Lions, and all for different teams? Quite a record.

They must be thinking "Not you again".

Havili did something good
Has had a cultured boot tonight. Now if he can just improve his tackling and running..
-
Havili hasn’t enhanced exactly his reputation thus far this game. Laumape showing why he wasn’t ever considered a viable starting AB.

Rugby Database just posted a stat on this. He's equal 4th for most games against the Lions without a test match.
