All Blacks v France I
-
France could have had a couple of penalties through those phases, as they could have done quite often when they’ve actually had the ball tonight. AB tacklers off feet on the French side not getting out the way of the 9. Hasn’t been picked up tonight, will be by a NH ref

I'd be stoked if this was actually called tonight. French often had a man on our side slowing down our ball.

For us -
Excellent - Jordie
Good - CLW looked pretty busy, Holland (though does go to ground easily for a big man), Ardie, Roigard, Newell.
Questionable - Rieko, Proctor, Finau@Frank said in All Blacks v France I:

@KiwiMurph Codie Taylor never seems to play badly. Mr Reliable for both the ABs and the Crusaders.

Could have done with Tom Christie and Cullen Grace out there
Don’t forget McLeod

@Tim said in All Blacks v France I:
@KiwiMurph Savea is a luxury selection at 7. He can be a brilliant player, but tackling and hitting rucks are the core roles of a seven.
I've said for a few years now that he would be better used off the bench in the final 20 - 30 minutes.

You aren't the Lone Ranger there.
The prospect of playing Kirifi and Savea at the same time against full strength tier one opposition terrifies me. One doesn't do the work and the other is too small to be effective.

In my opinion the loose forward balance missed Blackadder greatly, either starting or off the bench.

Geez squeaky bum time. James Doleman man of the match for France for sure.
Unless I'm missing something, the TMO was Brett Cronin?
