    Well you've found your back 3

    If Razor goes away from that then he's dumber than we think

    Centres looked good despite all the whinging on here. No better or worse than what's been picked this year

    DMac with Roigard and you have a totally different back line proposition which will score tries for fun against everyone

    Not just Wales 😉

      My missus went to the match and said it's the best atmosphere and spectacle she can remember in decades

      They need to work on the smoke

      That was bullshit

        Holly was the best ref of the weekend by a country mile

        Both were definite YCs

        I’d have her reffing the RWC final if it was being played next weekend

        Did you watch the other two matches?

        Carly and Pearce - both English - couldn’t have been more different

        You swap them and those matches would have been totally different

        The inconsistency was glaring

        I will say despite Holland’s supremacy at the lineout the ABs closed that line far too many times without being punished by Holly

        My only black mark for the officiating team

          Wales were never going to beat NZ but with 14 men for 20 mins I thought we did really well

          I’ll throw it out here now

          We won’t get the wooden spoon this 6N

          Great tries fair play

          I’ve definitely changed my opinion of Edwards

          He’s getting better by the game

          Put Jac Morgan and Wainwright in that back row and we're winning far more clean, quick ball

          And we're slowly building a back line who can take advantage of that

            Agreed and the one I've been suggesting for the last two years.

            God knows whether we will see it again though.

                I think Luke Pearce is the best ref around at the moment, then Angus Gardner, then Hollie Davidson.

                  Well if he is - which I don't think is the case - then he needs to be the benchmark for decisions which every other ref works from

                  He waved things off yesterday which were YC and even RC worthy in other matches

                  It was a joke

                    Well Roigard - DMac; CC-WJ-Love 15 is such an upgrade. Why can't they see it?

                      @MiketheSnow Haven't seen it.

                      I like the way he lets the game flow, without it becoming chaotic. He'll talk rather than whistle.

                      I don't like the refs who keep slowing the action down. Fans pay to watch Rugby not the official.

                        I like Devlin and his young sidekick.

                        They see to call it as they see it which is refreshing among the New Zealand Rugby media at the moment.

                          how old is Devlin? I remember him visiting our school to talk about being an alcoholic and that wasn't exactly a few years ago. (I may be a spring chicken, but a highly seasoned one).

                                      That was bullshit

                                        DMac is our No.1 . We've known that for a long time esp. since Ireland 2024. That shit is frustrating.
                                        We saw enough of Love against Wales to suggest he needs to be there for the long term. The long returns alone had me convinced. Jordan to 14, Clarke on the other wing. The air squad is born.

                                          I love that stadium, none better. Close to the pitch.
