France v All Blacks

[Tordah]

nicely done Savea

[No Quarter]

Dagg's pace is impressive, he's running like he did when he first burst onto the scene.

[No Quarter]

France look great with ball in hand as well. Could be in for a classic here.

[taniwharugby]

Barnes doesn't seem to have a gate at the rucks

if he is going to run like that , he needs to re think his hair style , doesnt look great in the wind

[mariner4life]

Todd a huge start. Some great defense.

And then first touch bang! Dagg has wheels again.

This is a great game so far

[Gunner]

Frogs goin off their feet an awful lot at the rucks

[taniwharugby]

Second big missed tackle there.

[mariner4life]

French running fucking hard but being met by some huge hits. Awesome rugby

[kiwiinmelb]

We tend to bag him a bit , but great try saving tackle by Naholo earlier

[Sapetyvi]

I love Dagg and his refound form, eapecially as he is a couple years older than I am, gives me false hope I can still be fast someday

After he almost missed him... the weakest runner in the back line...

[Donsteppa]

8 missed tackles so far?

[gt12]

@kiwiinmelb
Yeah, it was a good turn, but he's been caught out coming off his wing a couple of times.

Good start by Savea.

Rucks are a proper mess. At least we seem to have adapted to Barnes early.

[mariner4life]

Haha "New Zealand really do sail close to the edge of the rules" straight after the French have given away a penalty

[antipodean]

@No-Quarter said in France:

Brilliant from Todd.

He's having a very good game thus far.

[chimoaus]

Savea looks in best condition he has been all year. A month off fried chicken seems to have done the trick. Let's hope he looks that way next year.

[Mokey]

Haha to Wayne Barnes' "franglais" as TJ so eloquently put it. ABs look good with ball in hand.

[mariner4life]

Again we score almost as soon as we get the ball. Skewing the possession stat

[taniwharugby]

Jeez this gate at the breakdowns is pretty bent...
