Again, apologies that the players aren't in order. The software does that for some reason.

[Hooroo]

The three loosies

[reprobate]

whitelock, smith, laumape.

[mimic]

Laumape and Jordie had a hand in both tries tonight. Was a great game from them

[Tim]

Whitelock, Cane, and Kaino (yellow card though).

[ACT Crusader]

Did I hear over the loudspeaker at the end there that Jordie Barrett was awarded MOTM?

[Rapido]

No one stood out for me.
Although Jordie was excellent under the highball, and for a guy in debut v a team who uses the box kick (and even reverted to an old fashioned up an under), take a bow.

[Gunner]

Where is 'the fucking ref' option?

Should be added after 12 hours, once everybody's calmed down.

[Gunner]

@Kruse I'll never calm down after that fucking cock up of all cock ups.

[canefan]

Kaino was immense until the ref put him on the naughty step

[taniwharugby]

Whitelock, Cane & JB for me.

[Billy Tell]

Jordie, Jerome, Aaron (kicking from hand was excellent)

[Nepia]

Cane, Jordie, Kaino for me.

But man it felt weird that BBBR wasn't even in the running this week. Edit: Yet I see he got 5 votes already :).

Surely you mean 12 years?

I was using my own standard.. my red-mist about SBW calmed down after 12 hours.
I reckon the 2007 Barnes shit settled down to a point after 12 hours. And if that's the kinda stuff you're referring to, it's a good question as to whether the Barnes shit will last another couple years.
But I suspect I've missed the point, and been incoherent in answering a question I misunderstood, as I just spent several hours getting smashed and watching Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty. Off-Topic, but fuck you's all haters!

Also - I'm assuming self(kiwi)-awareness irony...joke. And, as the kids would say... "like" ?

[mariner4life]

Cane, Smith, J Barrett

Who for our man of the series? Cane and A Smith miles in front of everyone i reckon, with the ever outstanding Retallic in third.

[Snowy]

@Kruse Yep, and a veiled reference to the fact that we won't see the Lions again until then, if at all. A bit like if one of the Lions had done a Gregan and said "12 more years boy". A long time to dwell on an incompetent ref call, but I can do it.

I still can't stand Barnes after being there in 2007 and I'm unlikely to be over it in another 2, or even 10 years really.
Nice work on the getting smashed and choice of music.

@mariner4life Probably go with Cane as well.

[KiwiMurph]

Cane, Jordie, Aaron Smith. Jerome was very good (although he aint the player he was in his prime, which is understandable). Laumape was also very good - defensively stronger than his bench debut and heavily involved in both ABs tries - well done that man.

[Bovidae]

I went for Whitelock, Smith and JB.

My impression at the game was that Whitelock's workrate was immense.

[ACT Crusader]

Whitelock, Franks, J. Barrett

sam whitelock is such a good player. so good in the lineout, strong in the scrum, always right up there in tackle counts, and his ruck work, both with and without the ball is great. the number of times he makes a pain in the arse of himself on opposition ball is similar to some of our best loose forwards.
