These NZ lads playing pretty fast and loose!
In that weather too,great game! Different level mate
Borthwick's head might explode if we were trying some of this stuff.
Much easier to watch when you’ve nothing invested in it,but the lack of box kicking is a joy to watch! Think there’s been one by The Blues that’s it

Yeah it would certainly be pretty fun to watch see how the different leagues stack up against each other.

Great reffing,in the GP they would be desperate to give a red for that (unless it was Sarries!)

Now this one could be trouble! Team mate did knock him in though ,he’s still upright. Penalty for me only. Fantastic reffing again! GP refs take note! This is how you deal with accidental rugby incidents,not desperate to give reds and yellows all the time!

Really thought that would be a yellow, but I can see the refs reasoning.

Lots of creativity in this game, not a whole lot of accuracy though.

Yeah as good as these teams are I think a team like Leinster would put 70 on them given how they are playing.

Nah no chance lol ,I’d comfortably lump on the SR team to win my fantasy tournament. For me it’s undoubtedly the best league out the 4. It’s triangular theory i know but look at what the SA teams have done in the URC in their first season and look what the NZ teams used to do to the SA teams in SR

I disagree there, I think the French teams would just end up bludgeoning the NZ teams playing slow attritional rugby and Leinster play a much more accurate attacking game than either of these teams are showing currently and would exploit a lot of this sloppy passive defence.

Mate,the SA teams have been playing slow bludgeoning attritional rugby for years and have got nowhere since that great Bulls team,and their power game is a level above the French teams.

New Zealand lost to Ireland and France last year, they aren't the force they were 3 years ago when their Super Rugby sides were dominating their South African counterparts.
