Did Grace lose that backwards accidentally?
Yes.
Grace has seemed a bit clumsy to me, so far.
He's also been unimpressive on defence

Reihana been getting kicking lessons from Kemara?
Or DMac?
Goes all right.
Some basic errors from both teams have led to tries. A dumb pass by Eklund and terrible ball security from Grace.
Why didn't Reihana kick like this last Sat? 
17-15 at the break. Entertaining half. Poor midfield defence and poor goalkicking for the Māori has cost them the half-time lead.

Bailyn has always been better suited to the wing.
He looks lost at centre.
@Bovidae said in Japan XV v Māori All Blacks:
Forbes is such an unco runner. Small strides.
Yeah I thought he was going to lose his stride before he dived for his try.
Yeah Grace hasn't been great. Funny how TK Howden has missed the same amount of tackles and turned over the same amount of ball but no ones mentioned it because he's one of the ferns golden boys.

Nock has such a slow release. Makes Christie look like A Smith
He's triple pumped a couple of times and ruined space out wide

Messy first half for MAB. Time to flick over to the B&I Lions
Actually I staying here

McWhannel scores. 22-17 to the MABs.
Fucked up lineout then good turnover

Aaron Cruden trying to defend the head contact there on Era. That wasn't great.
Reckon stays yellow.
Ball carrier was hit prior which changed his direction.

Yeah stays yellow for me, but I was more going on about Cruden acting like it was barely a penalty.

Didn't look like much force either.

No. Just old and can only deal with one screen at a time.
