Mo'unga has been one of New Zealand's class players in recent years. In addition to having flair and kicking precision, he is courageous under the high ball and a positive team player.

[@wavewalker86]

A lot of players would be happy with a reel like this over half a season.. this was one game!! 👏🏽 🙌🏽👊🏽

[@kelbatt7729]

Japans top league is about the same as NZs provincial league. Not too much trouble for All Blacks to stand out.

[@GaniefDoorze]

Scott will bring him an shannon back to abs plus leister

[@nicogoliath4902]

​@@GaniefDoorzei hope so

[@ockiesimmonds9279]

Richie is a class above the rest of the rugby planet

[@yogzentreking5981]

As a player I can’t reiterate enough how good it feels to have a general at fly half like this. Do your job, stick your holes and expect the ball & ol mate Richie will hit whoever is in space. His positional awareness is S-tier. I also like how he runs a gamble too but still respects the code. He could’ve gone outside at 1:58 utilising his evident fend off but respected that the line was right there and his team mates would now be in his outside so it wasn’t worth the gamble. His mind for calculated risk fly is also a massive aspect to his play. Exciting player to watch especially at this level as he’ll risk more 🤣

[@Reformed1-e1c]

his natural talents was honed by an excellent coach in Scott Hansen, Ronan O'Gara, Tamati Elison and the incumbent All Blacks coach, Razor Robertson

[@QuakeSide]

don't know about All Blacks they had like 3 other guys trying to play the ball never let Richie be the main guy@@Reformed1-e1c

[@nicogoliath4902]

NO one is close to him , he clearly is the best flyhalf in the world

[@ashinch0r]

All the NZ boys up in Japan playing really stand out on the field.

[@porto434]

this is the reason why the crusaders won 7 straight titles lmao it was painful to watch as he destroyed all teams sadly my hurricanes many times lol

[@nicogoliath4902]

😂 no lies detected

[@porto434]

@@nicogoliath4902 its incredible to watch but not when its against your team lmfao

[@ThatGuy-qp6dv]

He's wasn't the sole reason why. If he played for the Rebels do u think they'd go 7 in a row too? The Crusaders tight 5 are All Blacks bro they're team was stacked from front to back. Definitely a key player but I disagree with "he's the reason why".

[@lht1523]

@@ThatGuy-qp6dvfair point.. He’s definitely a superb fly half. Will be interesting to see how the crusaders go. They’ll probably still carve up. But I hope my blues get up this year

[@Trajan2401]

​@@ThatGuy-qp6dv,true he had the best players around him still say he was a good club player but didn't really translate it to test rugby

[@Anakin_31]

I've grown to watch him play and see him come all this way to Japan, he's a class of his own and you can tell how easy it is for him to get through his ball kicking game. He's the reason I wanna play rugby union and hopefully meet him someday, and tell him how he made me want to play in this sporting code. A role model he is for me as a young individual who takes his skills and hardwork as motivation. Gotto love Richie!

Well deserved, Richie! 🎉🎉🎉

[@maikely-codmobile-004]

Tbh...he's the best 10 in the world

[@scruphgetup]

everyone knows that, but choose not to acknowledge it

[@nicogoliath4902]

Everyone agrees by now. Torn ireland defence to shreds , then torn SA defence to shreds in the final , who else does that, litterally against the two best defence systems in world rugby.

[@RomanEvans-o4k]

He is the better ten for abs

This guy would have won NZ the Rugby World Cup if he wasn't subbed off.

Nah they subbed him because he was noticeably rattled and they desperately needed a catalyst.

Shame he didn't make the sideline kick to win the World Cup - he was the standout performer in the competition.

Yaaay, Richie Mo'unga!! Quick tip: Toshiba Brave Lupus's uniform was once tricolor like french national team.

Waiting to see a Masterclass

[@networkn]

I don't want to be unkind, but that doesn't fit a definition of masterclass in my books

[@Ashargall]

The fact that you watch this video and have something negative to say about the player in it is insane. This was an absolute blinder of a game, in a potentially record setting season in Japanese rugby for Mo. The fact that these highlights included every touch of the ball he had, showed exactly why it doesn't matter that he sometimes gets greedy with his touchfinders, or hits the bar with a few kicks. Every other opportunity given, he individually unravels Verblitz. Absolute peaches of passes, along with what seemed like an impossible amount of dummies and clean breaks - not to mention some of the ballsiest kicking out of hand you're going to see successfully pulled off by a 10 at a professional level. What's your definition of a masterclass? Maybe you can watch every Super Rugby final over the last 7 years to get a refresher on what it looks like to most people.

[@networkn]

@@Ashargall I am a crusaders fan and a big fan of mounga but this isn't even close to his best work and even if it was, it's against comparatively weak opponents. You may not be aware of this, but Rugby players call playing in Japan, Holiday Rugby. Moounga is a predigous talent but this isn't a demonstration of his 'best' work. This is the examples of what a good player can achieve under very little pressure. No need to get bent out of shape over it.

[@creator6182]

​@networkn and he's not playing with his forner crusaders team mates, go figure

[@talamichael9806]

u must b talking about B Barret.

[@hikurukutai]

Sheet rugby it's school boy stuff

[@gregwaghorn8496]

Nothing from Barrett, apart from goal kicks

[@hsiaoqkevxiaoama]

he got injured in like first 20mins. will be away for 4-5 weeks

[@ric5403]

A great super rugby player but as an All Black!?.......left too early so won't rank in my eye. Mark my word..... He'll play for Tonga once he's eligible Best of luck to him...🤙🏾

[@therealtanah]

He's definitely playing alone in this team

[@Mike-ix1ou]

Masterclass is a bit generous...

[@we_want_chilli_willy]

Too bad he couldn't kick a penalty or a conversion for the All Blacks in the world cup final eh?
