Best defensive centre in NZ with a cracking attacking play...

@bones Rob Thomas would have scored it himself

@kiwimurph that centres combination of is what dreams are made of.

Seriously, Is it his time?

He’s basically a less breakable Ngatai and he’s only 25.

Funniest line from Nisbo "now he looks to link up!"

It was Ardie Savea. No he doesn't.

RR isn't that good is he? No way he should be an AB.

I know I would, but can't really see it. Crotty, Goodhue, ALB, Laumape, SBW. It's a long queue.

this ref reminds me of the muppet nice chap that gave up his Friday night to officiate my sons U13 game yesterday...

Two Maori Jesus's - could be confusing.

@bones

I can’t see it either, but on form he’s playing much better than ALB.

He also covers a number of positions, which makes him a nice 23.

Plus, his combination with Laumape.

Christie is so fucking shit, passes too low regularly

Is Christie the same Ginga that was playing for the Chiefs or is that another soulless clownhaired freak?

Nice pass Christie you donkey.

@rancid-schnitzel No, same guy.

But he was good for them. Crimson tool.

Jeez were missing tj or at least keeping TTT

Queue gets smaller when you take out injuries.

Nisbo now sounds like a video game commentator where he just has a small number of phrases that get recycled

"Looks to link up"

"Now the race is on"

"Puts his foot down"

"Snapped up by"

@antipodean although if fit, those are likely the first 2 names...

Lions scrum 5m out results in a try. That's all your fault Christie.

For the first game perhaps. After that it's someone else's turn.

That would be funny if it weren’t almost certainly true.

Christie has managed to turn me off him in just 40 minutes of play. His passing was poor all half.

To be fair, it’s traditionally taken me much less than 40 minutes to turn others off.

Although is that guy Booth on the reserves? His performance at McLean park was close to the worst performance from a 9 I've ever seen - Eaton level.

Bloody hell when is TJ back?

@shadowtrooper he's out for JUne series isnt he?

Great finishing by Lam.

And BLAM obliges us with a typical try scored in the corner

@taniwharugby said in Hurricanes v Lions:

Less of an issue as we have TKB for the bench.

Wait.

Ah fuck!

Gee Lam made that look easy.

What a kick!

@taniwharugby well that's pretty shite...

@shadowtrooper maybe there's another Barrett brother who can play 9?

Great try, awesome kick then mushroom head decides to give away a stupid penalty. Coach killer

@nepia Maybe they're finally going to try Dmac at halfback.

@taniwharugby Yeah, lol that would be good - if only! How quick is the production line....can we get a clone started

As he gets up he has that retarded face too . Deliberately lay on the wrong side for no reason.

This place would melt down if he was late to just one ruck ...

Probably better than having a scrumhalf who doesn't look before passing.

Lam showing all the skills.
