      Have not noticed ALB either on defence or attack.

      Not a criticism as such, but you'd hardly know he is playing.

            NZ could score a couple of tries. France look like they have slow ball.

                  Subs will be interesting... front rowers will be on within ten minute you'd think, but the rest? Will BBBR actually be used, Jacobson probably for Vaa'i with 20 to go?

                  I maintain Christie will be sitting on his bum whilst it is close, unless Smith tires (extremally unlikely). ALB has been good, so at this stage, wouldn't be looking to Havili, and likewise no reason to bring Fainga'anuku on.

                    That was Beaudie. Good set play. Long cut out from Richie to Beaudie, we had a dummy player for the behind the line ball and we went short to a running Ioane.

                      He set Reiko on that run. At least he hasn't showed out in a negative way. Too much kicking , few midfield runs for him to show out

                        ITV are the affirmative action of TV coverage

                        If Peyper (or Paper as he’s known on ITV) is anywhere near the knockout stages then it’s a lottery

                        NZ have got this if they believe in themselves

                          Happy enough with that. De Groot has gifted points and peyper has made 2 wrong ruck calls.

                          BB is having a great game as touch finders are the right option. Telea also great. Scott Barrett and Paps going well. France missing Ntamack imo.

                            This really is NZ game to lose, it seems the French waiting for us to make errors.

                                  Really feel that 5 minutes of good play could win us this game.

                                    Reiko coming of age at 13, can I say having Cane out strengthens the loose forwards... Actually pretty happy, ABs look fairly good.
