          Disappointing Love didn't catch, or make ground on, the old man there.

              Concerning is going a bit far. McNicholl showed in Super Rugby he still has genuine wheels

                Christie has shaded Lakai which also a concern given the latter is highly rated

                    Wellington aren’t going to do much this year with JGB, Savea and Proctor in the midfield. Definitely showing they have too many runs in the legs.

                    Really missing the zip from last year. Harkin has to start going forward. The fact he’s not on the field yet is baffling.

                        Harkin got shafted last year as well. He starts for the Canes. He should be starting for Welly easily.

                          It's completing the triangle of ridiculous 10 decisions this year - each player has separately been involved in the other two decisions

                          Garden Bachop over Pellegrini for Moana Pasifika

                          Cameron over Love/Harkin axis for Canes

                          Garden Bachop over Harkin for Wellington

                            Canterbury defence was the key factor for me
                            Lions had more than enough ball to pressure Canterbury
                            Tom Christie the outstanding player on the paddock lost count on how many tackles he made 3 turnovers to throw in as well
                            3rd upset in 3 games
                            Npc continuing to deliver

                              Garden-Bachop is a smart player but he’s just too damn slow and has no counter attack. He’ll likely remain at 10 though as Harkin will likely play 15 when Love drops back out.

                                Just put Harkin at 10 and chuck Clarke at 15

                                    Ropeti looks about 16 years old. Look handy with ball in hand. Didn't notice his work on defence, but I wasn't looking out for it.

                                        Is he small? He’s bigger than you probably think he is. Didn’t he play lock a few times last year for the Lions? He’s got a massive head, which probably makes his body look small in comparison.

                                          I’m hoping Porirua park isn’t permanently in the long term plans for the Lions. They don’t seem to get many people turn up. Would love them to bring a few games back to the Hutt.
