RWC Week 4: All Blacks v Italy

[Mattasaurus]

This is where we need leadership - talk to the boys.... Red brain vs blue brain shit etc

[Machpants]

Maybe it's the plan to give away lots of penalties to make it hard on ourselves

[gt12]

And Italy score.

[sparky]

Italy in.

Italy celebrate like they’ve won the World Cup.

Rieko mistake

On the back of shit kicks and penalty after penalty

[Donsteppa]

Looks like Fozzie Bear gave a typical half time talk.

[Mattasaurus]

Multiple poor exits, multiple needless penalties.. we put all the pressure on ourselves

[Tim]

After a great first half, defensive line speed is very slow.

I was just wondering the same thing.

To come out from half time and give away so many penalties in quick succession after near perfect discipline in the first half seems a bit suspect to me.

[Victor Meldrew]

All Italy in the second half.

[gt12]

They deserve it for allowing Italy so much ball in our half.

[mariner4life]

The just result of poor kicking and a succession of unnecessary penalties.

Also and appalling one on one effort from RI

[Billy Tell]

Rieko stood up. Can’t afford that against a better side.
