Thanks Baswec3!

Hurray...another haka

Their openside was slightly out of step there 4/10

My 3 year old loved the Crusaders on the horses, impatiently waiting to see the Lions they're going to fight now.

NZ franchises have set each other a target for angriest haka

Erik Shin

That was a bit long wasn't it... shorter haka needed

Just a tiny delay on the pass from Farrell and there you go. Neither Sexton nor Biggar have managed that.

We thought it was best one yet, anything that keeps the kids interested is ok with me.

Crusaders living offside by the looks of things.

The Rape of Lucretia

Christ. Does every New Zealand team subject us to this ****e before games now ? Its getting as bad a minutes silence becoming part and parcel of every match. Ubiquity just makes both a nonsense.

Good 2 mins from Murray and Farrell.

3 of the super teams will, apparently. Guess that means you'll only have 2 matches where you don't have to endure one. Apologies.

Murray and Farrell impressive so far.

Kanrith

Murray's kicks have been great so far.

Lovely steal Peter.

Crusaders looking very offside most of the time.

Erik Shin

Early days of course....but best Lions performance by a distance so far this tour

I know, its dreadful. Throw in the blatantly anti-Islamic name of the team, and its all rather distasteful in so many ways.

Looks like we have close to a test team out there.

Great steel in the lineout from POM

I think Barnes has romantic feelings for Farrell.

Classy even by your standards

ThisRegard

Stupid warning for that considering the slip.

Don't like him personally but Farrell really has great distribution, loves that delayed pass and often puts a man into space.

Half backs both look good. Promising signs.

The English say the same about Sexton

BBDBB

Another improved performance so far

What's wrong with Farrell?

That wasn't a knock on. Through his arms and backwards then bounced forward. One of my pet peeves with rugby these days.

Drink (your tea) every time Barnes says the word "Dewy".
