Italy v All Blacks

[sparky]

As I've been telling some of you all week, Italy are a decent side.

[Donsteppa]

Zero direction from 9 & 10, and about as little effort from the forwards.

[Bones]

Bring on Havili already, we need to win this, need a game breaker.

Scrums: good

Everything else: a bit shit (except you in the air, Caleb - that was very nice)

What a crock, clearly Blackadder is needed here

[Mr Fish]

Big head knock for Caleb Clarke.

Individual excellence is going to save the day.

Italy look pretty bad as well tbh. The option taking on attack has been poor and conceeding a lot of penalties.

[Darth Sader]

Fark, if this is how we’re going to play, may as well have Reece out there. Get some structure first!

[Gunner]

Jeez the rucks are untidy, they’re diving off their feet, and the ball is squirting out all over the place.

Put some more numbers in and get us some clean ball FFS

[Jailbreak7]

Why the ctual fuck aren't we knocking them back in the cleanouts

Sounds like Razor's upcoming press conference spin

[Kruse]

Every eyetie offside behind the ref"s back every breakdown. Are we trialling a return to no ARs?

That's the team Argentina put 50 on two weeks ago? The one Samoa beat?

The reality is we're playing poorly, especially the reticence to go forward with good cleans.

[booboo]

Bit obvious

[sparky]

More than a few All Blacks looking like they are mentally on the beach already.

[Jailbreak7]

So frustrating. Offside Italy and they are still awarded a penalty

[Mattasaurus]

we're adjusting to the interpretations so well....

Yeah they are flooding the rucks, which is working, but illegally ask the time
