    Very little territory, and when the MAB did they coughed up the ball. Forbes had a shocker.

    The conditions must have been difficult as Sullivan was subbed due to heatstroke.

    Weird thread. Mainly positivity about Japan and they got dicked 36-10!

    Maori simply had much better ball skills

    @ARHS Filipo must have wanted a forward and back as his co-captains. But Poihipi didn't even start.

    @chimoaus said in Māori All Blacks v Ireland 2:

    What is the law about not playing the ball he is referring too? If the ruck is over, and he is onside then why can't he go for the ball?

    I thought the ruck is only over once the ball is picked up by the "halfback".

    @Tim said in Maori rugby Quizzes:

    @ACT-Crusader He was so much better than the locks they picked.

    In hindsight, no doubt.

    I guess with a Lions match the selectors would tend to go with what they know. It wasn’t until that 2017 NPC that Hemopo really came into his own and got on the radar for higher honours.

    Finally got to watch the game.

    How much money would you put on Zarn being an AB?

    His left foot carving off that 50:22 was sex.

    Reminds me a bit of a young Izzy dagg

    @Stargazer said in Māori All Blacks to play Ireland?:

    The more I think about it, the more I think the MABs should tour like Argentina XV. That offers a greater variety of opponents than PNC. Opponents like Japan, Spain, Georgia and Romania would be a good start.

    Or other minnows like Scotland

    @bones nah somebody in their wisdom suggested JGB was All Black material based on his season with Wellington. May have been one of the more fanatical Wellington posters...

    McMillan seems to have come up through the coaching ranks so that's possibly a good thing. A few Naki players are going to start worrying about there places in the team now though. 😉

    Now watched the second half.

    I don't buy the 'Maori strangled into submission' story. The fact is that the score went from 15-10 (and Maori declined gimme 3 just before halftime) to 29-10 on back of: Dmac kick off not 10, Lowe dropped ball on 22, Dmac suicide chip in own 22, Dmac miss on Te'o 10 out and DMac scragged standing 10 yards behind gain line from ruck. To their credit the Lions were ruthless when they got into the red zone. That said, better game management and they wouldn't have been there.

    The time to take on the rush is not 15 yards behind the gain line in one's 22. That is when you kick the pill 50 metres downfield.

    To paraphase Cypher: 'A little piece of advice. You see an agent, you do what we do. Run. You run your ass off.' Except kick!

    In fact from 29-10 the Maori stemmed the tide very effectively.
