At least stuffs rating have some semblance of reality, don't look at the heralds, averaged 6 or 7 of ten!
Edit. Don't look at rugby pass, minimum is 6 most are 8, what fucking game were they watching?

Player ratings are meant to be just that. Not a reflection on disapointment over the overall team.
Cane deserves way more than a 6. That was a seriously impressive performance. -

I thought the big work on after the semi was to improve our physicality. We looked even less physical than last year.
That and having a clear game plan would have made a big difference

Isn't "just run about a bit" a good gameplan?

@chimoaus Aren't the tests against the Aussies in Australia also for the Bledisloe Cup?
Yeah, can someone tell me how the Bledisloe works with 4 games. Can we technically draw 1 more and lose 2 and still retain it. Don't the Aussies have to win 3 to win it? Or do we have to win at least twice?

No - if there are 2 draws and 2 Wallaby wins, it is ours, 2-nil.

Paul Cully gives Sam Cane the same rating as Ardie Savea? Are one of you fluffers this clown in real life?

The Bled is three games. I'm unsure if it is determined by points difference in the event of a draw and a win apiece or if the holder keeps it.

Ok so if we win in Auckland we retain it then I assume.

There's a 4th Bledisloe after the 31st
7 November is the 4th Bledisloe.
Ok, so the Aussies could lose next week and if they win their 2 on home soil they get the Trophy 2-1

Looks like it will be wet with 40 kph winds.
ABs by 13.
Hoping for a repeat of 96
96 was old school balls, muddy fields and an absolutely unprotected stadium. Athletic park was amazing when the weather was good, but goddamn when it was bad it was awful. Still little better rugby watching than the Mallard Stand.
But that weather was truly atrocious, and to pull ou the skills on a day like that was remarkable. I was i ntown, but couldn't land a ticket at the time (and didn't try particularly hard, given the weather)

Only the Millenium Stadium comes close.

Yes. Drawn series, holder keeps it, but Ozzie have to win next 2 of three games. Thus a draw as good as a win for Oz, cos if they lost this they'd have to win the next three. Now they only have to win 2 of the next 3, same as us
Conversely a second draw counts as a win for us, then we only have to win one of the other two games, haha
