    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 šŸ˜‰

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

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

      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

      @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).

              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

                        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.

                            And the Welsh crowd know their Rugby and love their team. Great to hear them in (near) full voice yesterday.

                                    Actually, I thought Foster should go post the Irish series loss - not that he was as bad a coach as people made out, but he wasn't the one to sort out the problems, which went far deeper. Despite that, he did pretty well in the end, certainly compared to Coach Jesus, and the shit thrown at him from NZR down was unbelievable.

                                    We've gone backwards under Robertson and, unlike Foster, he doesn't seem to be able to run a happy ship nor does he actually coach if we take what he says at face value. Two years in and he's made thing worse

                                    Not all his fault, of course, but he has to take a fair share of the blame in over-inflating his abilities and creating the current poisonous atmosphere which seems to exist between NZR and top NZ coaching talent.

                                      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

                                      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

                                      I hope you are right. Wales are so disadvantaged with resources against tier 1 nations that they pretty much always overachieving.

                                      Will be good to see them inprove and competitive against tier 1 teams

                                        I thought the ref was fine

                                        We've certainly had worse.

                                        I didn't blow up at any of her calls in play, so sm iInterested how our Welsh posters saw her given my lack of indignation.

                                        She was bullied out of awarding Jordan's try though.

                                        She'll do plenty more tests.

                                        I thought WJ was held up

                                        Don't agree. She was talked out of trusting the evidence of her own eyes by an inconclusive super slomo.

                                        Not true mate - the TMO showed her the footage and said he couldn’t overrule and she went against her own decision anyway

                                        Yeah okay.

                                        "I can't overule you" ... but I am.

                                        These pricks talk in code. He 100% told her to overule herself.

                                          Yeah, I'll roll back my pre match comments, Davidson was light years better than I thought she'd be. However, yet another fucked up bizarre decision against black that you've never seen before and never will again with that disallowed try.
