All Blacks v Springboks

[African Monkey]

Nice work from the Boks there. Good to see them giving it to us after being written off all week.

[Kirwan]

The pace was starting to cause problems for the boks, just need to keep things simple.

[ShadowTrooper]

That first Bok try should never have happened. Two blatant forward passes were missed in the lead up to that try.
But ABs have not been helping themselves. Poor kicking dropped passes and missed tackles.
Now time for a Shag rocket

Long contracts for AB wingers are like a death knell. Hopefully that gives him some oomph.

Sheesh, it's a bit early to Savea him after 38 minutes.

Hey I called Dagg an All Black in waiting as soon as I saw him play age group. This could be my next call.

I fucking hope not! (Also, pity no one from the Canes came to the same conclusion).

[ShadowTrooper]

@kirwan Couldn't agree more. KISS ffs

[Siam]

@gunner yep. What's up with those fucken hail Mary kicks to the wing when behind on territory and score?
Nah, that's not a winning formula

[taniwharugby]

Isnt this what everyone apparently wanted?

[Victor Meldrew]

Jordie Barrett's pass was of the dumbest things I've seen from an AB team in years. Brother Beauden isn't having too flash a game either.

[broughie]

@bones I think you need to quit while you are ahead:-).

I wanted good rugby, not gifting the opposition a match.

[African Monkey]

@taniwharugby Exactly. We're not always gonna have it our own way. It's great seeing teams give it to us and see what we're made of in the 2nd half.

Does Jordie have a better %age than Beauden??

Yep, two mistakes to one.

[chimoaus]

Some nice tries coupled with some stupid shit from the ABs. Getting tackled into touch and those cross field kicks are just handing possession back. Boks are defending well. They just need to give the Boks some respect, play a bit tighter and earn the right to go wide. Hopefully McKenzie comes on and runs rings around some tired big boys.

@antipodean said in All Blacks v Springboks:

How the fuck can a five-eighth miss those kicks so often?

Yep. The big fear is it will It could cost us a key game in RWC2019

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean well we get to see them under some decent pressure for the first time in a while.

[kev]

@chimoaus agree the cross field kick is over used.

[Rebound]

Nigel Owens can just retire. He is a shit ref. Missing plenty and as the Books are the desperate team infringing most he's missing all their shit. Same thing happened last year against Aussie in the 2nd bled. He is showing signs that all celebrity refs before him shown.

I’m loving it atm , might not be at the 80 minute mark though

[Billy Tell]

If there is any lesson so far it's that ioane looks rushed back. just about his worst 40 minutes for nz ever. try at the end might steady him though.

[Siam]

@kev beaudens one from the 22 after we just secured possession was fucking drag worthy
