Italy v All Blacks
-
Rugby needs to realise that constant tmo reviews does not make for a good spectacle. That was a nothing. The tackle from lomax made Italian change direction.

Strange that Pat Tu'ipulotu avoided a card there.

online commentary (nz stuff) "Tuipulotu collected an Italian player with his shoulder hitting the head, but it was a very low degree of danger, with a change of direction, so it is just a penalty."

A lot of players need to be shown the door to be honest.
If things dont improve next year, then hopefully the coaching team will be shown the door too.

Fucksake another YC

On paper, the All Blacks have by far the better bench. Hopefully, it will make a positive impact.

Yes, hopefully, but one would expect the same would be said of the starting team.

Between the conditions, our performance, the referee, the commentary team (outside McTainsh) and the punditry, this might be the most henious test match ever.
