I remember years ago I saw that young guy named McKenzie and I thought I should remember his name. He was just another player back then, but there was something special about him, some kind of raw talent that made me think he could be one of the greats someday. He also had a younger brother named Damian, but I didn't think much of that scrawny kid.
No kidding, he has a great ability to break the most minor of openings in a defensive line and draws in as many players as he can before off-loading the ball. Kinda reminds me a bit of Justin Marshall but Marshall never used to pass the ball 😂
Watching him is like watching a Hare being chased by two Lurchers and never getting caught plus all the other skills this guy has on top. What a player.
Dmac is so good to watch, he finds the tiniest gap but also can predict it ahead of time and will pass to another player to setup a try every time he can.
plays more loose than cullen, incredible player tho and good comparision. but i feel like cullen was just the greatest attacker we've seen, along with rupeni. while dmac has alot of tools
@@animekawaiichan9399 talking about wilson, depressing how underrated he was. his 1999 season was unreal, no one could stop him. pretty much cullen in 1999, he pushed cullen out to the wing. if he could just finish the 1999 season in style, we could've all looked at him like an all time great, he would've been dominant in 2000 aswell. but sadly, france exposed wilson in the semi finals, completely bullied him. Wilson forgot how to defend then they kept chipping it over him. all blacks were ahead and only had to hold onto the lead, instead france kept chipping it over wilson then they started to rain tries, they just targetted wilson, wilson couldn't stand the pressure. if that were to be cullen, he would've positioned himself nicely, picked the ball up and boot it, his kicking game was underrated. That france game was so terrible for wilson, i believe they dropped him the next yr, due to everyone knowing wilson's weaknesses. they did what wilson normally does to everyone, wilson was the greatest chip n chaser ever, but when they switched the favours, wilson crumbled. then they ended up putting cullen at 15 then bringing umaga on the right wing. wish that game never existed, wilson would've been just as dominant in 2000. we all would've put respect on his name. one game ruins a career pretty much, but not when you're andrew mehrtens.
He no need an american football block style plus from the referee. He is too good. Anything else? Yeah that was a shameful call against France but that doesn't take anything from him. Anyway Damien could play fly half, fullback and winger. An outstanding player. Fast, strong, hard defender, smart, good kicker and talented player. What more can you ask from him??

That was more than 10 times btw
One of the most devastating counter-attack runners to ever play the game.
Well said
His still awesome
@@FirstbornWallus-fk5nq he's still is a beast
9:25 Lowe appreciating the madness of what mckenzie just did

Haha not even wrong too.
McKenzie is such a team player. Incredible passer. He knows it is the team and the score that is important. Run grasshopper run.

Agree
Not to turn your whole channel into a DMac highlight channel but “10 Best Dmac Smiles” would be amazing haha
Cringe
Or top 10 times Dmac got absolutely smashed
@@Lizardbrainzzz people only wanna see that cos he carries the mighty waikato
Lowe-McKenzie partnership was just stunning to watch.
Thumbs up for Bryan Habana
Pls make a video of micheal hooper 🙏
🤝
Yes!!!! Bryan Habana please man!!!!!
@@animekawaiichan9399 Please do one on Ben Smith he is so underated
I will make most liked comment
Dmac is so good to watch, he finds the tiniest gap but also can predict it ahead of time and will pass to another player to setup a try every time he can.
Has Cullen like balance in his running. Changes direction on a dime. Changes speed in an instant. Can read the game well.. Great too watch
Such a shame of the injuries. Great player.
all blacks missed him on rwc
He's bounced back this season though, 2020 was a bit rough for him but he looks like he's back in top nick!
Well let’s be grateful he’s still in top shape now at least. Next World Cup he’ll make a mess of other teams
Such an amazing talent for his size. He's the only thing keeping the chiefs together at the moment. Without him, they would be lost.....
Don’t go that far. 🙄😬
When he was young I used to watch him playing skool rugby videos when I saw him for the first time I new he had talent
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I don’t know anything about rugby, but there seems like they have fun playing together 🤷🏾♂️
Soo much respect for this bloke
5:20 the refs playing for the AB’s 🤣🤣🤣
So good to see DMAC finding some form again after his ACL injury
Now this is god mode rugby
He absolutely dominated that France series.
Fantastic video. I live in Hamilton New Zealand and hadn't really appreciated how good he is. Thanks
His acceleration is unreal. Other players have had higher top speeds but i'm not sure i've seen a player that quick from a start.
Beauden Barrets faster haha
Jason Robinson phenomenal off the mark.
Baudi for sure. But his step at speed is insane
1:16 honestly the best piece of defender manipulation I've ever seen, classic France though.
The Wayne Barnes blocking line was absolutely outrageous.
😂😂😂😂
1:35 it is baffling that Basteraud spent most of his career as a back.
Met DMac at a gull fuel station in Hamilton!! Absolute CHamp
The Matador 🐃😤🤫
Genius at work
My fav fullback in the world, saludos desde Argentina!!!!
Great video! I love that you included great tackles, passes, and touch-finders instead of just tries.
I just love the way he backs himself
The ever smiling magician assasin!!!
Glad you enjoyed
@@GGRUGBY i always do 😊
massive hart courage and a electric player. If he can get the mistakes out of his game he will be a Great of the game
Even with mistakes he's a bloody good football player ... one of the best.
The way he plays reminds me a lot of Christian Cullen.
plays more loose than cullen, incredible player tho and good comparision. but i feel like cullen was just the greatest attacker we've seen, along with rupeni. while dmac has alot of tools
@@toiletsmithy3630 and what about Jeff Wilson?

McKenzie and Cullen...the greatest fullbacks.
Doing gods work brother thank you
I miss the Lelia Masaga days chiefs were fire 🔥💯
A thing of beauty

Well said Rodolfo
He proves size doesn’t matter.
He and Faf De Klerk
Hes just amazing my 9 year old grandson wants to play full back i show him these vidios all the time
the Lionel Messi of rugby
Being a blues fan when I saw this video I knew what was coming
Lowe and the Dmac combo was so underrated at the chiefs
What our highest points scorer, I think not with over a 100 games and still only 28 yrs old in 2023 we love him at the Chiefs
1:55 mais on s’est fait massacré!😂😂
I love how a lot of them are against france
He just loves playing rugby

Love this player.
Simply the best
Great Player
He embodies the kiwi spirit.
Cool video. Great player. I don’t think New Zealand will see the best of him, some French club probably will
Just how many forward passes does he get away with in these short clips alone?
0:20 he looks like the chad meme heheheh
As a SAFA, this is my favorite player atm.
There is only one God in heaven. No human can and ever will be equal to God
This is like..waaaay more than 10 times lol
Ooft he’s quality
Next time 10 times cheslin kolbe went God mode
so BB playing from the bench as FH and FB cover) as this proves who is the best All Black full back
Mackenzie for president.
I like him more than any player
Sampson of Rugby
damien Mckensie plays like a man twice his size
All Blacks 15 surely
Robbie henshaw next 👍
His form remind me to think of Doug Howlett
J'ai hâte de voir les all blacks face à la nouvelle équipe de France, ça sera pas la même histoire....accrochez vous on arrive 😈
too much forwards in this clip, but McKenzie is a beast
why the music???
I didn't know there was a god mode only beast mode😃😃😃
Where is Beauden Barret?
Man if he was 10 cm taller he vould be badasss
he would lose his quickness
My dad met him at the mall once and my brother is also a rugby player he was in the 7's once his name is (not John senar) Kevin inoke
I'm afraid that Chiefs' fan get angry to Japan :/
From Japan🇯🇵
Music kinda spoils it. Just the commentary would be better.
🎓🎓🎓🎓🥊
👌🏉
God mode more like immortal mode
There is no such thing as going God mode
“10”
GOD mode stop using it when did you see GOD
Join the DMAC Church!
Lowe, isn't he Irish?

Jul opskrifis ietwar Gods lasterlik
Nobody can go GOD mode, only GOD can🙏
10 times?
only one talent
Who?
He is cutting grass there
If only beauden play 10 & him play 15, ab couldve done better
Nz forwards got monstered at the WC, that was the catalyst
yeap agree
@@kuharua54 cant deny tho.
Even whitelock & read arent as impressive as before, let alone the rest.
There's only one God and he's in the Kingdom of Heaven watching over all his children on his earth.
