France v All Blacks
-
A good half of rugby to watch, although a number of areas to work on. I think we improved our defense by not chasing turnovers (opportunities are there, but not enough) and getting more guys across the field.
France's attack is fun to watch, and is making some real problems for us to solve.
Right now, I'd like us to try and get the ball and hold on to it for a bit. This French team isn't really one that we should give that much ball...

Good game this. French playing well.
Haha are they serious? The commentators and halftime panel are deliberately not calling us the All Blacks? We've got them mind fucked
We need to play a few more phases and make them make more decisions. We are actually making good yards and half opportunities every time we get it, but too many turnovers.
We're beating them in close, but their forwards as a pack are getting around the track better than us.

Agree, this has been an issue for us for some time, we just give away the pill too often.
I have noticed the Irish and French loosies seem to have a fair bit of pace with the ball, makes Kaino and Read look a little slow?

@chimoaus agree. Kaino is noticeably ponderous tonight, great if they are right in front of him though.
We're kicking away more good ball than they are stealing.
Wouldn't mind seeing us have a crack at a few more rucks, Barnes always gives more leeway there

More shit tackling....later BB
-
phew, we were on the ropes a bit
-
That's fucking lucky.
If we are going to continue those kicks we need another quick loosie on to help Todd.

BArrett and Ioane on

Bahaha BB holy shit, I almost feel sorry for France there.. but not quite.
