Well I guess now we get to see how good Lucas is. Personally I don’t think from what I have seen that he is the next big thing at ten. Looks good running but doesn’t have a long boot on him. Still young and lots of time to improve, but Trask is a big loss and potential banana skin coming up if the backs don’t capitalise on the forwards work. MSR having an insanely good season
@bayimports yes. On reflection Tahs Kemara is a better Chiefs prospect than Cashmore. Hoping MSR goes on AB XV tour. Inga Finau has been great value too.
Lovely conditions for this one. Rugby how it is meant be played until that last minute before halftime that turned into 6 or 7 minutes.
Narawa looking really good and MSR huge everywhere.
Dull 2nd half. Too much whistle and long stoppages. Narawa beat countlrless tackles. MSR reigned supreme and was 100% off the tee. Bekhuis was inspirational for the stags.
I do like what Cashmore adds for bop

yep, Cashmore went well, for me Inga Finau and Narawa the pick of the backs. MSR and Eklund both strong especially in first half.
tough watch second half agreed, still good win
@bayimports good game for triple T also.
