All Blacks XV v Georgia

@Bovidae yeah I'm basing on what I saw at NPC for northland...don't get me wrong he played consistently well and i thonk was well up on most stats, but i probably expected more, guess it ain't all about YouTube reels...

Mr Fish

Parker's a big lump and if he were a bit more aggressive he could be a gun player. He can be a bit passive at times but has all the attributes and skills to be a very good player.

AJ Lam is with the ABs.

Wow, I was going to ask if there are 2 Georgian scripts and apparently there are 3!

Things have really gone downhill with Georgian rugby, now multiple players with surnames not ending in dze or ili. Not just one or two. Sad days

Mr Fish

Georgia grab the first try but ABs XV have just scored one of their own via Kurt Eklund.

Not the most open game so far, 15 minutes in.

Bones

Fuck he's a shit ref, unbelievable sometimes. Georgian lying right over the top of the ruck and in from the side, gets a not releasing penalty.

Mr Fish

Georgia seem to be numbering up well on defence but they've struggled to bring players to ground at times.

The crowd is amazing. Georgia vs NZ XV in Montpellier in a large stadium and it’s a sellout. No way Georgia vs France A in nz sells out a stadium.

A sell-out is always great but not sure I'd say 16k is a large stadium?

Ok not huge but still a decent size

As you say, wouldn't get those numbers to the reverse fixture in NZ!

19-10 to the All Blacks XV after 35 minutes.

sparky

Tries to Eklund, McLeod and Christie so far.

Bones

Haven't been paying too much attention to the accuracy of Christie's passing, but outside of that he's playing bloody well.

Bones

Perfect timing, he goes hungus and fluffs a try.

Mr Fish

Scores one try then ruins another haha.

sparky

Jacomb also going well.

Bones

Fuck I wish we could get a chance to see how Stevenson goes in the main squad. Has the added bonus of the sweet combination with DMac too.
