RWC: All Blacks v Namibia (Pool B)

[akan004]

Good to see BBBR get through unscathed.

[Quo vadis]

I'm listening to Nig on radio sport , with the tv silent, not bad combo. He and Elliot feared Red initially.
Players will be scared to tackle soon.

[JC]

If Aaron Smith stands at another ruck and waves his arms about I’m going to fly over to Japan and chin him

[sparky]

Hansen took Namibia far too lightly. These guys play with a lot of guts and pride.

[chimoaus]

Angus comes on, good pick and drive then runs hard for try.

[JC]

How can someone tackle Jordie around the neck accidentally?

so a tackle at knee height gets you sent off..cool. how about we just ban tackling altogether. Let's create a rugby utopia where no one gets bruised....I need another wine.

No. A swinging arm at the head of a falling player gets you sin binned. Not sent off, not knee height. But hey be disingenuous to invent a point.

[Jailbreak7]

Think Hawkes Bay halves and Mako halve are better than the AB halves currently

[Stargazer]

It's like they flicked a switch after that yellow card and BBR going off.

I don't want to eve see Jordie near a 10 shirt again

Watching this makes me realise how un-shit DMac was at 10

[Donsteppa]

About time that someone bothered to do something....

[taniwharugby]

we arent doing a good job at protecting our ball, but the ref is giving them a free run at doing whatever the hell they like there too

[No Quarter]

That was great defense from Namibia until we finally crashed over. They're doing their country proud.

[African Monkey]

@sparky Stop panicing we're gonna win with a BP it's all we need. Glad Namibia have given us a decent workout.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

He was just not good enough; not shit.

[chimoaus]

Are we missing Read? With Frizzle and Ardie perhaps we too loose?

He is and I'm OK with it. We need to be able to adjust to NH refs so it's good practice.
