Could have been so much worse
But frustratingly so much better@MiketheSnow said in RWC: 3rd/4th game All Blacks vs Wales:
Could have been so much worse
But frustratingly so much betterI think, realistically, not much. It's weird, Wales have a real block Vs ABs. In Gatland's time only once have Wales Benn within ten. I think this result is pretty much part for the course, response when Wales were a bit bashed up and a day less rest

On the bright side, we've beaten 2/3 other semi finalists

Awful game. Have no idea why its played.
I disagree actually.
Big crowd enjoyed it.
Lots of fans travel over for the semi finals onwards so it makes sense to have a game for half of the fans to get another game.
No doubt a big money spinner for both WR and the host nation.

Nope we're ranked second. And whomever wins the final will be first, loser third, Wales fourth.

@Machpants great to be corrected. I thought you got points for playing in the final.

@Jailbreak7 worth looking for mate, see for yourself, pictures painting a thousand words kind of thing.
The moment Shag finished as a great AB coach

Same as always, points are exchanged. If boks win they'll take points off England who will drop to third, boks top. So standings until next year are
- RWC champ
- ABs
- RWC runner up
- Wales
- Ireland
- Oz
- France
- Japan
- Scotland
- ARG

Thought BBBR was lucky to get man of match. Sam Cane for me. Man he hits hard.
Cane or Bender.
Thought Scott Barrett was into it more than Retallick tonight.

We are so blessed to have players that give their all whenever they wear the black jersey
Just want to pay tribute to Kieran Read,Ryan Crotty ,Ben Smith and Sonny Bill Williams ..I guess we never really get a line on how good players were until they leave ..
Also to Steve Hansen..wishing this great coach and man all the very best..to all these out going men that have contributed to the game we love so much ,
Nga mihinui ki a koutou Katoa ..!
