Big step up from Japan even against a second string, aren't going to get away with poor defence and just wanting to play with the ball.

What's the second string thing?

[Piranha]

@Dan54

Well they've got their 8 best players with the Lions and have kept many of the big guns for Fiji and Samoa.

None of the starting 15 started in any of the 6 nations games, that's what i mean by a second string.

[Bovidae]

Zarn's and Forbes glacial speed turning is being exposed.

> Did Nock take a knock? Really slow to get up from that last ruck, it's only 13 minutes in.

You should be a commentator with that turn of phrase

[KiwiMurph]

Doubt it happens but wouldn't mind seeing Zarn to 12 and Evans to 15 just to see how it looks

You don't think the best Maori players aren't in the All Blacks? Maori All Blacks almost never field a full team following that reasoning.

[Steven Harris]

Omg WTF was that ..!

That is pretty pathetic defence, zero sweep.

Weird pattern with Zarn defending in the line. They’ve been caught out by it 3 times

I'm guessing Nock is supposed to sweep, with that pattern you'd want the blindside winger too.... but there's no one.

[KiwiMurph]

That was.... something...

[KiwiMurph]

That's a penalty try to Scotland surely

IWL intentionally knocked that dead

[Tim]

Nock with a spiritual sequel to his brain dead pass to Ta'avao during Super Rugby.

[taniwharugby]

Wow, awful awful pass by Nock forcing that

[KiwiMurph]

Haha carding the wrong guy

Woops my bad I've gone full Nisbo that was Howden

[African Monkey]

Nock's had a shocker there.

Yep I went full Nisbo

[Yeetyaah]

Crazy to think Scotland were paying $3.70 before kickoff.

9.5 point underdogs they were on the line

[Yeetyaah]
