    Decent looking 23. The Lions look like the side mostly capable of denying the Crusaders the title.

    And the Chiefs look really shit on paper again.

    Surely youโ€™d have Stevenson over the Aussie at the back, has the Aussie played much 15?

    Never like seeing the word injury in the same sentence as Brodie Retallick. Hopefully it is nothing major with his hand.

    Seriously? Have you seen how the played the last few rounds? They're not even a shadow of the teams that played in the 2016, 2017 and 2018 finals.

    Sheesh, any old dude washes up in Taniwha country and you're proposing him for the ABs. It's like you're northern Cantabrians. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Listening to Cooper on RS, TTT has been released to play club footy.

    Tried to sell it as a good thing; to get 80mins and it is his clubs centenary.

    Is Angus Ta'avo a liability? He got pinged a lot last week early and he's given away one already tonight.

    Both Taylor and Coles would have continued running if they'd made a break like Marx just did.

    Very lucky there. No release from the 9 for me. I guess he might argue he wasn't part of the tackle, but I thought he was.

    Maybe because he's wearing the 1 jersey instead of 3?

    LOL at the commentary. Bad decision for lions to take kick (they've got 3 points), great captaincy for chiefs to take line out (they've got zero points)

    Yeah I didn't realise that. Why is he playing loosehead then?

    Fifty fifty? Throwing it backwards whilst not looking is not fifty fifty! It's just stupid

    Not a great call if it is. He's obviously fooled the refs into thinking he has a problem keeping his bind up.

    Pretty sure itโ€™s the ABs asked him to swap sides. Ofa and Karl did it earlier in the season

    One of the (likely) 5 RWC props will need to cover both sides
