It's interesting the commentators didn't know what the false reap was back then. Lachlan really was a pioneer of the leg locks along with Danaher. It's also funny that Nicky Ryan is in Taza's corner but now is closer related to Lachlan via Craig. How things change so fast.

Great match. Didn’t know the false reap was popular in 2018. And also surprised taza was able to hang in there with Lachlan he way he was tbh.

[@etimezz]

Definitely one of the best Polaris matches ever.

​Lachlan really hunting the false reap in this match. Great performance by both men. I certainly would have called this a draw though.

[@pninnan]

Yeah I see no way to give anyone a win here. a complete wash where they essentially just nullified each other

[@artunsaday6391]

I also think it was a draw. Altough Taza pushed the pace, Lachlan was never in real danger and was able to put Taza in danger with the back attack. Overall both of them countered the moves of the other effectively.

[@brassmarsh]

'Unorthodox' almost. Shows how quickly the sport develops that the false reap is now pretty standard.

[@jonathanespiritu7317]

That’s a false reap accusation, sir!

AMAZING MATCH

Fun match

[@adrianwjmnz]

Is this before Lachlan starting using the k guard?

[@purplecookie687]

8:20 starts great battle and Lachlan ends up landing pretty hard on his head :o

[@garybaker466]

scary

[@canadians1982]

Is it Nicky Ryan in the Taza corner?

[@ninobach7456]

Yes

[@drjimjam1112]

What an even match!! Prefer sub only matches with 10P over time style tie breaker.

[@candylord5363]

Taza DEC Giles

[@JohannMynhardt]

Coaching from the corner at this level is kinda disappointing to be honest.

[@Beatbasse]

Nicky Ryan was a teenager at the time lol

[@edwardthormann1928]

Lame

[@ryanbarnes8693]

If you call it lame you don't understand what's going on in that match

[@michaelswann9849]
