All Blacks vs England I

[booboo]

And First World problems ...

... am forced to watch this on my phone. Which is bad enough.

But the kicker is the display on Stan means the clock gets cut off by the top menu bar on my phone, and I don't know how to get rid of it.

I'm not sure Rieko is the 13 you want if you want to play this style

If you want to play direct Vern ball then yep.

It would have been nice to see Proctor on in the second half but I understand why they were more conservative for this test.

[Kirwan]

Perofeta has gone better than I expected, and TJ has gone exactly how I expected. Time to get Christie on and get some smarter decisions going on out there. Both their passes are slow, but Christie is actually quick.

Loose forward trio is not working, Dalton is tackling well, savea is going missing as usual when up against a combative pack and Finau is MIA.

Locks are going great though.

And DMac is awesome under the high ball

Lol everyone talking about TJ and his service. Don’t you guys remember we have Christie on the bench.

So we shouldn't criticise Perenara's service?

Course not. He's a Hurricane.

[Kirwan]

Oh and Jordie has been very good at 12 too

Is papalii playing?

Yes, he’s the only flanker tackling

Our pattern looks more like late Henry era (thanks Wayne). We could do with Ioane at 12 and then use Jordie’s passing out wider.

@Kirwan Carried better than the others too.

Savea is doing fuck all on defence and at the ruck.

[Tim]

Christie on.

[Canes4life]

Holland has taken a few shots to the throat with that voice.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Some retarded play there but I like what Razor is doing. They get this to click and they'll fúck teams up.

Perenara injured. Who’s the next man up if he’s out?

Perofeta with Beaudy on at fullback.

[nostrildamus]

Patty is playing well? I missed the first 10-15m..

[KiwiMurph]

Our kick chase is woeful
