Very good list, only minor concerns. Snuggums (talk / edits) 15:49, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
 * It would help to add a time and/or location to the pic's caption
 * Have done this. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:38, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
 * "the sixteenth highest on the all time list" try worldwide or overall
 * Not sure I see an advantage to changing what's already there if I'm honest... The Rambling Man (talk) 11:38, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your review and kind words. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:38, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

Comments from Parutakupiu

I have performed a full copyediting of the lead, and during this process I was bold and updated Lomu's personal records, which did not account the most recent World Cup edition. According to the sources provided, Lomu is now the sixth best New Zealand try scorer (passed by Savea) and all-time eighteenth (or seventeenth, if one considers least number of matches). Also, his overall and single-tournament World Cup record of 15 and 8 tries have both been matched by Bryan Habana as of the 2015 tournament.

As for the rest of the list, here are my comments: — Parutakupiu (talk) 02:15, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I would order the table columns in this way: 1) Try, 2) Date, 3) Opposing team, 4) Score, 5) Competition, 6) Venue, 7) Location, 8) Ref.
 * As you can notice in the previous point, I would discard the "Result" column (therefore, making the Key section unnecessary) and would state instead, in a sentence before the table, that New Zealand's score is listed first in "Score" column.
 * , thanks, done. Please don't ask me to reorganise the columns again... The Rambling Man (talk) 11:44, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Support. Haha, can't promise you that, ! Parutakupiu (talk) 12:23, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
