There's always a bit of pub chat on line 2011-15 NZ v 2019-23 RSA about who's the best. Much of it moot as both are happily double RWC winners. But the sheer consistency of NZ , 10 out last 13 TRC titles and near 90% win rate in all games ( 88%) during the 2010s has them a cut above imo.

Enthralling game, Aus needed to match their defence with the power they had with ball in hand.
Ran out of road when they power left pack. Lions winning when misfiring/18pts down. JGP, Genge, Beirne pick of bunch

The gripes online from Irish lads about a young Irish player getting called up is quite something. The veil of oh won't someone think of the other nations slips fairly quick.

Sadly this sort of snide stuff has been all too common on this tour. Particularly from the older, more established generation of hacks.
