RWC Week 4: All Blacks v Italy
-
@Derm-McCrum they’ve had no ball to play with. Fair dues to the NZ forwards for that. And any they have had has been turned over with some aggressive defence

Yeah - NZ have been clinical - no question. Italy have still been dog poop.

I'd just like them to play some systems in the 2nd, control the game and themselves now...
And no injuriesOr cards
@booboo in a way, it would be good to kick plenty of ball to them forcing us to defend and maintain discipline
-
Frizzel and JB have made consistent yards, good decisions - both make a considerable difference (opposition aside)
-
NZ have been ultra clinical in the 1st half there, very impressive.

So Ireland beat Italy 34-20 this year, does that make us favourites 🥸
Naturally. Against SA.

Aaron smith is like one of those greedy 9s at primary school.

That was some half of rugby from the AB’s.
The negative nellys will say ‘it’s only Italy’
They can only play what’s in front of them, and gee they’ve done everything bloody well.
Dominant at set piece, dominant at the breakdown, dominant at everything. Physicality has been great.Can’t ask for much more.

Better kicking and decisions from beaudy, I'm asking for that. Tho it is better then usual

You can only play what's in front of you. ABs excellent.
I'd getting Jordie and Frizell off quickly. No need to risk them second half.

Disagree, then they don't play until Ireland ? Nah they need some minutes

If I was Ire, SA or France - I'd be kicking to BB as much as I could......

Good technique by that NZ winger diving for that try. Kept himself in.

Keep an eye on that winger, he has a big future.
