Have these blokes even trained all week? Judging by the socials it's all been promo bullshit.
Hanging with the Chicago Bulls, hanging with the Chicago Bears, doing content with Barstool and other influencers... Complete clown show.
As long as they've looked cool in their bulls singlets that's the main thing.

The fact that the ref didnt know there was screen for him to look at on the sideline for the red card, in conjucntion with people on this forum, planet rugby, and "pros" on comms on both UK and NZ tv not knowing whether it was a permanent or 20 minute red , tells you all you need to know about the state of the game.

ABs need some straightening runners in their attack and more direct up front - Degroot only man standing up in the tight

I hate this team. 20 mins up.
Get papalii in, Morons
If Dalton’s our saviour we really are in trouble.

Worst All Blacks team of the last 50 years?
Certainly the least entertaining and likeable that I can remember.
Would be pretty close

Halftime and Mils is the only one speaking any sense.

Ireland have been shit too - but I'm sorry - this is just fucking boring. You compare this product to the NPC and Super Rugby and it is night and day.
This isn't rugby I'm afraid. It's two phases then box kick, it's pedantic rulings, it's the TMO reffing from the sideline - it's just straight horseshit.

@hikastags The marketing tail wagging the rugby dog. The story of the last five years as NZR ‘seeks to monetise the AB brand and extend its footprint among a wider group of stakeholders’. Razor designed by Saatchi and Saatchi.

NPC is my favourite rugby these days. And to be honest I think the NRL is the best product out there now and id have never bothered with it in the past.
Reece Walsh et al get me out of my seat.
This is fucking tripe.

UK tv saying its the worst red card they have ever seen.
Those fluffybunnies would be singing a different tune if the jersey was black.

Looking for positive… BB has been good. Some nice touches from LF/Jordan and Caleb was reasonably good until that dangerous tackle. I’m struggling for much else. Game plan seems non-existent, Irish showing how direct, narrow intensity breaks us down without much effort. We’re still relying on individual brilliance/skill to keep us in the game.

How many weeks until our last test? There should be no excuse.

They're idiots then
Typical biased bullshit... the outrage is simply due to the colour of the jersey receiving the punishment not the incident itself.
