@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
@canefan sliding doors and all...

Not one of the loose forwards in this 23 are All Black quality.
Cane is usually. But barely last week, and definitely not this week
@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

May be just missing two world class partners. Easier to shine in a class trio rather than be the one to lead it.

Sorry but that just sucks I can't be happy seeing an opposition team score against us like that

I’m with you, I never ever cheer a try against my own team.

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, een 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.
@victor-meldrew Reuben Thorne?

These are the worst All Black loose forwards since 2002.
Astounding that Akira can't get a gig given the lack of quality.
@no-quarter Akira hasn’t been selected because for all his talent he still wants to play like the game like he is 5 years old. Picking up the ball and running around the whole team to score a try. Not sure his approach would have helped today.

Worst All Blacks performance in years. Worst captain’s performance too - a nothing.
How is Kieran Read going? If we lose him long-term we are poked
-
That was horrible , thank fuck it’s over
-
Fifita has a fucking terrible upright running style, yet Ioane is always bagged for that.
How the fuck is Fifita an All Black?
@tim e must have a fantastic workrate though.....
