All Blacks v France II

[canefan]

Nice hit by big Jim

[canefan]

Not clinical enough. Mistakes have let them back into scoring position

[Kruse]

Fucking traitor irish coutts

[sparky]

Ho, ho. I guess we need to be happy with the win. Weird French selection gifted us this one, a great forward effort in the first half guaranteed it.

But too much sloppiness in the backline and in attack. We need to be much more clinical.

[SouthernMann]

I like the big French fullback

[Darth Sader]

Good win, but I’m definitely only back to a semi

No. Even.

[KiwiMurph]

I like Ratima but he's an enormous step down from Roigard.

Remember the fun days when we used to completely bury teams in the last quarter

[Darth Sader]

Who gets the moral victory here?

[Bones]

Thought all the newbies were really good, liking the pressure being applied before and after halftime, but fuck fix the last 20 minutes.

It's a big jump now from our first XV to the guys picked to come off the bench, I'm afraid.

The England Cricket team of course.

[stodders]

@kiwiinmelb now you do it in the first half to get the job done

[nostrildamus]

You know, if they moved JB to 10 and had QT and Big Jim at 12 I wouldn't mind that much at all. And I don't recall great memories of JB as a makeshift first five.
