All Blacks v France Test #2

[canefan]

BB was high in the air. The smart play would have been to wait until his feet touched the ground and then smash him

@baron-silas-greenback In whose dictionary?

@gt12 no physicality, no target setting, kicking ball aimlessly (same in 1st test), DMAC at 1st.

[taniwharugby]

@mariner4life a large part of that is the RC

[ShadowTrooper]

Wow that feed was under the second row's feet

Aaron Smith has been shit tonight. Way too clever, way too slow.

I would bin barrett for that. What the fuck was he doing?

Had one of his best games last week. Hasn’t followed up well so far.

He's been really poor. His big named partner hasn't been any better

Although big Sam has made a few dominant tackles. One of the few.

Something is missing though. There’s no fucking urgency. I don’t get it.

They did focus on the mental aspect of backing up a good performance.

@kev

I agree with all of that until you get to Dmac. He’s gone ok.

That last kick out on the full is a good example, he was doing the right thing at the right time, and lacked execution.

Now they use him well!!

That’s it from Crotty.

How lucky are we as All Blacks fans?

Our team plays like a bucket of shit for 80% of the game, yet they still have the ability to pull moments of magic out of the hat.

@gt12 I really like DMAC later in the game. But early on he chose to run selfish lines and he always takes a few steps before he passes. Better when defences are fresh to work targets and team plays.

[gt12]

I love it how people say Dmac holds it too long, then he makes that try.

[kiwiinmelb]

Sometimes I wonder about Ardies hair

[antipodean]

WTF is Ardie doing?

[Toddy]

@gt12 The AB's had an overlap there. All he needed to do was draw and pass and they would've scored. He took the gap and was lucky.

[taniwharugby]

@kiwiinmelb if it's real?

[MrDenmore]

Suspect Hooper and Pocock would be watching this with some excitement.
