    The one thing with A-W J is you write him off at your peril.

    Female commentator is fucking useless

    There was a female analysis person in the 6N's who was bloody good but, as you say, the one today isn't.

    For a big man duhan der merwe is incredibly fast, Anthony Watson looks good alongside furlong sinckler and beirne lions looking sharp

    VDM joins a long line of big, fast wingers with limited rugby IQ

    Will only make Test 23 due to lots of injuries

    Commentators just called fellow-commentator Miles Harrison "The Voice of the Lions" and "the best in the business". WTF?

    Harrison is to commentary what Mike Catt is to tackling Jonah Lomu - useless.

    Oh the guy they were just talking about was named rookie of the year in the aretayrawa rugby awards huh 🤦

    We might mock Wimpie's size but he hits like someone twice his size.

    Himeno!!

    Man's a beast. If he was NZ-born I'd expect him to be pushing for a place in the AB 23.

    To be honest I think him and Jacobson are almost clones in the way they play. So fingers crossed.

    AWJ has dislocated his shoulder. Not travelling with the squad. Not definitely out for the Tests. Gatland will need to find a new Tour Captain.

    Gutted for the guy. Amazing durability and then to get crocked at his biggest moment. That sucks.

    That could be a huge loss. AWJ's mana will be really missed as the team gels together

    Gutted for him. One of my all-time favourite players.

    Deviant? Suppose it depends on how big your dictionary is.
