All Blacks vs Wallabies Bledisloe II

[Darth Sader]

11 wins in a row against Aus. Wow, doesn’t feel like we’ve been as dominant as that. But well done us, I guess.

[BerniesCorner]

All that whinging on here for a strong finish

Jordie and Quinn excellent.

Bench review - thought the forwards didn’t do to bad.

Bower and Tosi carrying hard and hot hard in the tackle and ruck.

Sami hit his targets better than previous weeks. Good late game lineout wins by Patty, but looked to be labouring in open play.

Nah Patty was good. Doing more than the loosies.

Saw him at least twice struggle to keep up with the play.

Jordie has had a hell of a game. His level of involvement is insane.

Reckon worth persisting with him at 12?

I dont think it's a coincidence he played better without Beauden at 10

has to start somewhere.

[sparky]

If Argentina beat or draw with South Africa at Twickenham, we'll win the Rugby Championship.

Most likely though, we're finishing second.....

Scott Barrett: 15
Savea: 15 (7 in the last 20)
Holland and Lakai: 14
Parker: 12
Barrett: 11

Is the issue we have 3 decision makers in Roigard, Dmac then Jordie.

Too many playmakers / decision makers in the backs? Need less thinking and more do.

no that isn't the problem. Our tactics and selection are the issues.

Yeah of course that also. Coaching is complete shit. My point being is who is the Alpha in the backs...Is Roigard making the decisions? Is it Dmac? Jordie?

It's clunky as fuck.

DMac wasn't great. But it can't be a coincidence that both JB and QT were afforded space to run hard

[Tordah]

Ardie has given his all for the year for Moana Pasifika, got nothing left now. Should go back to Japan and play tiddlywinks, then come back and play like in 2023

Newell has really come on as an all round player this year

Jordie has a pair of bollocks on him.

Carries hard and is one of a small few who seems to try and effect the game with a bit of tactical nous. Brave defender too.

MOTM

I think we're done with the other 2 Barretts.

[brodean]

Bench was good. We won the last quarter for a change.

Roigard's doing his own stuff.
I've defended DMac but he isn't consistently managing play well.
Jordie is fixing over the gaps.

[BerniesCorner]

DMac shades BB at 10.
Must stick with DMac on EOYT.

I don't remember seeing many box kicks or cross kicks. That's a positive

[Gunner]

I’ll go against the grain and say that DMac was mostly good.
Thought his taking it to the line and passing was excellent minus a couple of shit passes and conversions.

SB is probably a good guy and has probably been one of our best locks but he needs some time off to find his moxie.

Worth persisting with if BB is the other option

Yeah, like it wasn't a vintage performance or anything, but we were the better team after the first 30 mins. We were OK, ground it out in the end.
