Italy v All Blacks
-
@Nepia watched the first half, and Rieko always gets the ball and the tackler. The same can be said for most of our backline passing. We are obsessed with tight pop passing to cut through the line. It's rarely pretty or effective. One guy who consistently seems to run nice lines and gets space is Will Jordan

It especially looks ugly in tough NH conditions.

To be fair, playing in zero degrees doesn't sound great

And WTF?"22. David Havili (Lienert-Brown, 62min): A couple of decent touches, and very handy tackle on Ioane. 6"

It's the ABs DNA, according to Wayne Smith.

He is reliable… you can count on him for a yellow card in the 70th minute just about every game.

Playing far too flat. We hold the ball far too long at 10 instead of shifting it into the MF so they can work. Where have I heard that before?
