@tim said in All Blacks v France Test #2:
These are the worst All Black loose forwards since 2002.
Astounding that Akira can't get a gig given the lack of quality.
-
I’m sick of the bullshit headlines and crap articles that we’ll see this week already.
French robbed
All Blacks so poor that the Fench would have won if not for a controversial red card
Refs in ABs pockets
Aura Broken
Blah blah blah usual bullshit.Flush the funny, make a couple of changes to prove a point and bring on next week.

FFS is Ardie going to do anything this game? How the fuck is that lazy fluffybunny an All Black?
He's actually busy, but entirely ineffectual
Reminds me of Adam Thompson, busy, seen everywhere on the field, but achieves relatively little for all the endeavour at this level

The old saying: "The best forward is the one rarely seen and whose name is never mentioned " comes to mind.

These players need to be intoduced to something called a BALL

Beauden Barrett for man of the match?
Gardner
Good shout!

Not one of the loose forwards in this 23 are All Black quality.
Except Cane, but he seems to be carrying an injury or something.
Cane aside, no dominant and accurate defenders, no quality ball carriers. No physical dominance.

Sam Cane bloody well is.

Cane is usually. But barely last week, and definitely not this week

So who leaves this game with head held high? Jordie Barrett? ALB? Can't really think of anyone else who has been overall good.
@mokey me, I got loads of likes!
-
Don't think the same team will be selected next week. Good christ what a shit game.

@canefan if they get that try, the red card doesn't happen....

The 15 was dicing with death. If he'd survived that RC he seemed intent on employing the tactic so who knows

@mariner4life Yeah, I edited my post. He normally is very good, but looks to be carrying an injury or something?

I think he’s still coming back from that and just isn’t there yet.
The others are trying but not at the same quality as what’s missing.

Well deserved try. Effort from the AB scramble sums up their effort
