but for big games he's better than Dmac
Big game opposition grinning with pleasure at a stunted ABs. Fair play if you enjoy watching that shit show, I wouldn't.

I think he's worth a squad pick for experience but for big games he's better than Dmac
2024 End of Year tour would disagree with you
DMac was sublime vs Ireland
Beauden was mediocre vs England and France. The only reason we beat England is Telea got subbed on for Beauden (and then George Ford shat the bed)
That was DMacs one good game. One. BB was Motm in multiple that year and single handedly responsible for at least two wins.
Is he peak BB? No. Do I wish we had better? Yes. But I don't think Dmac is the answer. BB is better, more consistently until we find the next 10.
Ideally that would have happened 1-2 years ago but it is what it is now.

Fuck! You had me going for a bit, I thought you were serious. Thank goodness.

Segner is not having a good night
Sorry, finally succumbed and selected him in FR.
Went with Sotutu as well, hence PT not passing to him.

Since they were talking 2024, for those with short memories England at Eden Park and effectively the reason we won both games.
DMac was poor. Extremely so.

Why are The Blues obsessed with caterpillar rucks?
Because they have a 10 who cant punt for distance so they need to kick from 9

Did you see that from Barrett? That was pretttyyyy good
That brilliant experience to know the reds player was going to knock it on and not ground it. Learn from that kids

Don't post this sort of shit when I'm eating my cornflakes. Now I have to clean the carpet again.
How about that experience to pop gun it down Daugunu's throat, who returns it back to where it was kicked from.
Was the last pass in a try earlier though, single handedly winning games, beautiful to see.
The halftime instruction is kick for space and BB just kicks it down the Reds’ throats every bloody time

Which he has done for most of the last decade......

Another garbage beauden punt
At this stage do we need the words like, .. garbage, terrible etc.... I think its safe to say if BB kicks it ... its shite... or at the very least the wrong option
That's the Forbes I know! Basically bundles himself into touch 
Lovely maul, reckon BB was probably watching and breathed in that direction. Amazing talent.

It’s also the league style passing that has absolutely no benefit whatsoever
Beauden in his Elvis in Vegas period. Blues better off keeping it in the forwards to spare him having to waste his energy aimlessly punting the ball to the Reds
