Warm Up Match 1: New Zealand Barbarians v British & Irish Lions (Whangarei)

[Penne Rara]

Just imagine how happy Gatland jr will be if his team beats his dad's

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

FFS Hogg WTF was that pass.

 

[TommiG88]

Well done Hogg

 

[Gavin]

Are all NZ teams, no matter what level they are, able to make continually great offloads?

 

[Penne Rara]

Gatland just can't make bad decisions at the moment. He's a strong first five with a nice boot

 

[ratsapprentice]

Dismal for the Scots

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Faletau the only Lions player who's had a good game so far. Laidlaw and Hogg both having shockers.

Pretty much.

Seymour has been alright IMO.

Faletau the only Lions player who's had a good game so far. Laidlaw and Hogg both having shockers.

Sinckler and Moriarty looking good IMO.

 

[Penne Rara]

Ahhhhh bad luck Watson, the try line was just there but the turf's slippy as hell

 

[Bluemoon]

Best's throwing in shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

Lions forcing at the moment, lots of little mistakes.

 

[Gavin]

Why did the Lions decide to take Scots on tour? They have been utter awful.

*Seymour has been ok

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Seymour has been alright IMO.

Their 14s had him in his pocket so far

 

[Goodey]

Faletau the only Lions player who's had a good game so far. Laidlaw and Hogg both having shockers.

Watson bringing a good kick and chase and Te'o has been strong in possession. Sinckler good from what little I've seen of him. Faletau the stand out so far though yeah.

FFS Hogg WTF was that pass.

He's had an awful first half. It can only get better.........

 

[ratsapprentice]

Sinckler having a good game, Te'o too

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

If we don't score off of this...

 

[TommiG88]

Sinckler having a good game too.

 

[Goodey]

Oh that was more like it.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Play Sinckler at 9 IMOz
