I wonder who they will give MOTM. Please let it be Cunningham-South!
I mean six tries, cool, but pretty disappointing performance
You can excuse it with the A games because they have literally days together, but this lot have been in camp/on tour for a month or more

Do you think this concept is somehow unique to the USA? Sure union in T1 nations for the most part offers a very nice living standard but it’s hardly comparable to football money or in the millions.

Be surprised if it's not Ford, from the way the commentary are talking
If MLR paid Top 14 money, you would see a massive influx of talented athletes.
Anything less than $100,000 is poverty wages.
I don't think they announced one
And to me he wasn’t great at all, he has been fantastic in those tests against Argentina I just wanted to see him express his passing game and picking out the holes in the defensive line, we know he had an awesome array of kicks but they just weren’t needed to win.
If the premiership paid even league one football wages you'd see a massive influx of athletes too - but they don't so the point is moot
The difference in wealth between our two nations is vast.
We are paying high schoolers $6 million. There is money available if we can breakthrough.
Probably watches YouTube videos guessing what Sextion, pollard et al got/get at their peak and assume that’s the norm.
So?
Football pays astronomically more than rugby here, that's all I'm saying and all you were saying about other sports attracting American athletes
You're the one moving the goalposts
Do you really have to bring your poison into rugby threads as well ffs
I went to bed at the second delay, but it's too hot and I can't sleep, so watching now.
Just want to say - I love these commentators, they sound as if watching rugby is actually an enjoyable thing.
They're also happy to acknowledge that the ref has a microphone, and it's good to hear what he's saying - as opposed to our usual lot who are busy wondering why the ref made the call, whilst the ref is trying to tell everyone why the made the call, and refusing to either listen, or let the rest of us hear it.
They even... And I can't believe I'm going to say this about a modern commentator... They even have the ability to not say anything when they've nothing to say!
Oh, and as that's where I'm up to - beautiful hands from MOjo for Northmore's try, but how the hell did we butcher the try after IFW chase down and the knock on by Blue12?

I thought you hated stats
Ok,they're off for lightning, just after a denied try for Dombrandt.
Can one of the bug boys explain what happened there? He's talking about binding onto a ripper, and therefore it's obstruction, but... What does that even mean?
is it that he split out from the maul, but didn't get away from it enough? Which doesn't look right to me - but I fully acknowledge my ignorance of what the big buggers do, though I've generally learned a lot from my decades on forae.
