@Chris-B o would prefer a fullback who is an actual attacking threat from fullback
JB is very much a defensive fullback. I miss Mils
But yeah I really miss Cully
Mils was a more complete fullback. Great alround skilz. I'll go one further, Bender was better than both.
Anyone being a better fullback than Cully does not compute in my simple brain, sorry.

"Complete". Does that not compute? He could play 15, 13 and 14, better defensively and under the high ball. Cully excelled on attack. I don't see that as controversial.

Still pissing me off. It is 1 minute to halftime. Play it safe and go to two in the lineout and get out of the friggen half! FFS!
-
Apart from the well worked try Wales scored off their lineout, they're not throwing much at us to the point where we look pretty comfortable out there defensively.
Hard to see what Barnes wants at the breakdown. Most of what we've done seems pretty legal. I'd back us to win by 30 points if we start getting rewarded there as it's Wales only hope of getting downfield so far.

@Tim said in All Blacks vs Wales:
Should never have lost that lineout.
That looked like a slightly mistimed jump or lift to me, Sam W was still going up as it went over? But you right Tim, needs to be cleaner.
I struggling to get too carried away with the game, I think after the Black Ferns last night I just not getting into this. -
@JC said in All Blacks vs Wales:
What is Barnes seeing at those breakdowns?
The breakdown is refereed in the Northern Hemisphere completely differently to in the South.

Yeah, with dice!

Agree with above, Samisoni and Akira on eslry please. Frizzel in particular has been very ineffective (again)
-
ABs playing well Good accuracy. Savea very good

@Stargazer said in All Blacks vs Wales:
Taylor has been excellent. No need to sub him so early.
ST is excellent every time he plays. I would give him a solid 35minutes here.

Yeah let him play himself back into some kind of form. Soni on at 55 mins.

Keep the discipline

We basically played 9 man rugby in attack in that first half. The backs didn’t get the ball unless they had too.
Not many touches or carriers for 10-15

And that's a good thing. That is how we're going to win a World Cup with a sprinkling from the backs when it is on.
