All Blacks v Pumas

[Billy Tell]

Not watching this game*, but based on the expert comments on the forum this week, I imagine Fifita has been a complete passenger, too small for 6, and virtually unsighted.

No worries though, we have a world class goal-kicker.

*in NZ...

Steamed pudding has been cooking for 3 hours, time to pour some custard over it and consume. Will enjoy that more than this first half of rugby

@Stargazer TBF damage was already done at the phase earlier

And he's never going to big enough to clean it up. Which would be fine if he wasn't also adding defensive bombs to his intercept passing skill list

[Higgins]

The TAB will be laughing all the way to the bank with the winnings they have taken from what was an easy and certain All Blacks Half Time/Full Time double.

[Chris B.]

You can basically insert your own adjective.

"Our --- kicking has been shit!"

"fucking" is pretty encompassing!

[jegga]

Ffs.

[KiwiMurph]

That was a shit half from Beaudie a couple of nice touches aside. Dmac with more errors.

[Baron Silas Greenback]

Ardie Savea is not fit to lace up Canes boots

[Mokey]

Lovely runs by fifita, nehe, dmac, dagg. BB is having a shocker. Terrible goal kicking, kick offs, grubbers...
And what the fuck was with that final lineout.

[Gunner]

Hope they're getting a big hard rocket shoved up their arses.

Too cocky and not doing the basics well enough.

[MrDenmore]

Barrett reading too much of his own press? Shocking. Get Sopoga on there. There are enough ball players out there. Need someone who can actually kick the goals.

Ardie watch. Best ruck inspector in the business. Has an innate ability to accurately place himself to avoid 90% of any defensive duties too. Also good at making half tackles on the odd occasion he accidentally finds himself confronted with a ball carrier.

This weather is favouring the Argies.. and giving the ABs track record this year, Argies are looking good for a W

Can't fault this . Ffs

He is also thethe very worst type of 7 to clean up a messy game and bring some solidity.

[broughie]

Just have to play more direct and up the middle because there is not much room going wide. They have been successful when they have done this.

[Stockcar86]

Cane on

[MrDenmore]

Confidently predict this will be the last game McKenzie plays for the All Blacks.

[Donsteppa]

Savea is another Adam Thompson. He looks great because you see him everywhere... then eventually realise he gets everywhere and then just does fuck all.

Not as useful as Thompson has he doesn't have the niggle game...
