AB's v Wales

[JC]

Naholo’s first try, there was no attempt at all from the tackler to use his arms. Technically just a shoulder charge on a man in the air.

@tordah said in AB's v Wales:

no proper replay of the try, but on first viewing i immediately thought forward for the pass from 10 to 14. Need better TV directors.

Looked ok. Just replayed on BeIN. Flat at worst.

Would be shitted if we got called back for that.

Whos playing well for the AB's then?
Naholo, SWhitelock, Cane ?

Average impact for now:
Barrett, ASmith, DMac ?

Reuben Thorne-esque (i.e. invisible)
Tuipolutu, LWhitelock, Ioane (maybe not 100%?)

[Stargazer]

I'd like to see Todd come on, with Cane moving to 6. Todd is one of the best in making turnovers.

[chimoaus]

So no clean turnovers that half?

[JC]

@booboo .. if it was us I’m betting we would have got called back. Fuckin Barnes.

[MiketheSnow]

Priestland to 10, Biggar to 15, Halfpenny to wing, Evans taxi to Llanelli

[chimoaus]

@westcoastie Ioane setup first try.

[MiketheSnow]

Navidi proving me wrong

Squire? Haven’t heard his name called much. Sure he’s putting in tackles but so is everyone else.

[MiketheSnow]

If the possession had been the other way round it'd be 50+ by now

Fair call, and I considered that, but maybe I'm just expecting more impact - he's been that good rest of the year.

[Stargazer]

@westcoastie BB has made several try saving tackles. That's playing well in my book. Whitelock and Ioane have done shitloads of work. Not invisible. We don't seem to have someone playing at 6 though.

Yeh barely noticed Squire too.

[chimoaus]

@westcoastie With 33% Possession pretty hard for any backs to make a big impact.

[MiketheSnow]

Cracking match.
Only 2 pints in. I'd had 5 by this time last week

Yeh fair call, tactics/forwards to sort their shit out.

[westcoastie]

On my livestream, Welsh have some guy running a kicking comp, lucky the contestant isn't playing today, hes 3 from 3.

[Bovidae]

Squire has hardly been sighted either.

Pat T can be effective when we have the ball.

[booboo]

Welsh are also very adept and running shepherds into the AB defensive line.

There is always at least one bloke ahead of the ball movjng forward.

Not sure if we do it too but:
a. It's pretty obvious
b. It's damned annoying
