That extra pop pass from the forwards you all hate so much is so on as the half develops
-
<p>A few silly mistakes by NZ. But otherwise team is playing very well</p>

<p>Esp Carter. Final match and has done everything right so far</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Deserve their half time lead. Although it was looking a bit like their dominance would not be rewarded at one point</p> -
<p>Wallabies are close to a yellow I feel. Look much more brainless without Gits and less backbone without their most reliable tackling forward.</p>
<p>Can see Moody's rough edges now, just keep onside you big lump!</p>
<p>The pressure from the ABs and the territory looks great carry on from Boks.</p>
<p>Folau doesn't seem to have that spring in his step but he can still kick it out of danger.</p>
<p>Great to see NMS workrate, his and Ben Smith's ability to wiggle forward impressive.</p> -

<p>I'm not, they've got away with a couple of lying on our sides of the ruck - straight after we were penalised for it, so swings and roundabouts.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also, in any other game Kepu would have been sitting on the sideline either for 10 mins or the rest of the match.</p> -
We need to up the physicality this half. Oz will come out with some fire and we need to match it.

<p>Foley looks quiet doesn't he, Beale seems to be the playmaker/escapemaker now.</p>
<p>Yes the rucks are a battle royale, thankfully we have Rettalick and Kaino flicking the beast switch on. Hope they can keep up the intensity.</p> -

Very much this , quite surprising to see too. -
Great game so far. We got all the calls in the last 10. Some great interplay between players and last try emphasised the ab skill set. Conrad really straightens well and defence great. Glad to see Dan is nailing them, should be 19-3 if Aaron didn't have a brain fart.

<p>tackles missed 17:2, is that true? Wow.</p>

<p>BTW didn't Kieran Read bust his ankle? He's possessed.</p>

<p>The busted ankle seems to have helped him steady his game! Playing like a fullback and halfback and energetic in the scrum..</p>
