The Cane/Read/Ardie combination is awesome tonight.
One of the best I've seen - way up there with Ritchie/Jerry/Rodders and Ritchie/Read/Kaino

Mourie, Mexted and Shaw is still one of my gold standards. The Rapier, The Broadsword and the Mace

Farrell senior's defence has been ruthlessly exposed. All Blacks creating and exploiting space at will. Brutal route one from the first Lions Test creating that space.

Ireland struggling to keep up with the speed of play too.Their problem now is to fix the error rate will mean being even slower but they need points. They look tired too. This next half may hurt.

Mourie is just so underrated. Along with Jean Pierre Rives, he revolutionized no.7 play
