The Irish commentator I've got is an annoying, one-eyed motherfucker. Hate how ALB has regressed, he used to be very good

He's a fucking troll. The ABs could win this by 70 and he'd applaud the Jocks for being brave.

Halftime thoughts.
Havili doesn't even want the backup 12 shirt it seems
ALB's reputation was greatly enhanced by not playing for a year.
Christie isn't a starter which is a huge problem.
Telea looks great.
McLeod owes Savea his job.
Papalii and Savea seem to work really well together.
I think DP helps keep Akira focussed as well. Looks like a natural leader. Also what defensive strength he has!
Umm Savea plays pretty well with Cane so not sure if there is any correlation there

My point was regards Ioane and Paps.
But Ioane-Cane-Savea doesn't seem as good as Ioane-Paps-Savea... -

This is getting beyond a joke. They need to make some serious changes B 4 next year !!
They need to stop making changes. That's the whole fucking point. We don't have the luxury of time any more.

@nostrildamus he's pretty consistent at the width of a shoelace.

@Tim said in All Blacks vs Scotland:
@Bones He is having a shocker, and the defensive positioning in midfield has been awful.
I think many of us were just hoping he'd be a capable backup for Rieko. It's not really looking like it eh, but fuck, who else?
He's played 4 minutes after coming back from injury. Not time to write him off forever yet.
But could do with a shake up today.

He just played 30 minutes didn't he?

Not the way they are currently playing.

Yeah this chopping and changing is such a great idea. Fucking change my mind.
Ma'a Nonu played something like 70 tests at 12 and 62 of those were with Conrad Smith. Jordie B has had 2 and looks a million times better than that headless chook Havili. We're 10 tests away from a QF but yeah, keep changing the fucking team.
Since 2015 we've been looking for centers. Hansen fucked the team around all the way up to the SF in 2019. Foster has done the same. Finally find a potential candidate and he won't be played 2 tests in succession.
For all the doom and gloom in this test, the Jocks are gifted a PT (DP was blocked from making a tackle and the ball ingoal makes a huge dogleg to the left, not probable in my book but hey) and Mr Indecisive gift wraps and pass right into the hands of the Jocks.

And what happens if we put all our eggs in the Jordie basket, he gets injured and we don't have back-ups with reasonable experience.?

9, 10, 12, 13 are all B team players. Awful
And may as well add 11 too

Scott McLeod just imparted his words of wisdom.
I thought I heard him say 'Keep their hold on the ball a little bit'-this guy is a tactical colossus!@nostrildamus said in All Blacks vs Scotland:

DH seems to be gaining experience at playing worse and worse. Not sure that is helping anyone.
