Scott Robertson is shit
Grand Slam?
In the bag.
Worst thing is England look just as rudderless.

Beauden Barrett is really due…..

Bring wonder boy DMac on and we’ll be sweet.

Good discipline, good lineout, good Fainga'anuku, Tupaea and Lakai. Two missed kicks for touch are inexcusable
We should be 15 points up but those two clangers have brought England back into the game.

He should never have left the Hurricanes.
Next year he shouldn't be a Super Rugby starter. Let him go off to collect some yen and move on.

There's a lot of good stuff here.
But BB needs to retire now -
If it had been McKenzie who missed a simple penalty kick for touch he would have been pulled.
-
@Canes4life Yeah sickening isn't it. Not finding touch at this level shouls see players banished to the shadowrealm. But hey it's a Barrett.

Well ...
Score flatters England. But fuck we don't mind balling up opportunities do we?
They pinned us in our own half and walked away with points. Sounds like good rugby to me.
I didn't say they didn't take some good options. But my gut feel of Mex's "ebb and flow of psychic energy" is that NZ should be up by a try.
Agree, could even be more, we were dominating them. Those fucked up kicks from BB were so costly. Also, the drop goal is a pretty low percentage option, good on him for nailing them but I won't be unhappy if they keep trying that with go forward ball.
We can take a lot from that half, just need DMac on ASAP

My waters nearly break each time England put a kick up

Don't disagree but Barrett only missed one, Roigard fluffed the other.

The England comeback was as expected. It's been a common theme under Razor. We just can't pull away from teams after getting a good lead.
Speaks of a team culture than lacks ruthlessness. The very characteristic we were once so renowned for.
Not that the NZ Rugby media ever call Robertson and his pals out for it.

Neither side has handled the high ball well at all. They way its currently reffed it massively favours the attacking side

And Roigard did a Jordan and didn’t find his free team mate on his outside

NZ were blowing hard at the end of that half. Pace has been very high. I’d be surprised if Barrett didn’t get some choice words from the forwards for those 2 missed kicks as they would have gained territory and a breather!
Didn’t Roigard fluff one?
