All Blacks vs Pumas I

[ACT Crusader]

Bender has added some urgency too. Looking a lot sharper than Bledisloe 2

[Tordah]

ABs sublime under the high ball tonight

[Stargazer]

Line-out has improved a lot since Taylor has replaced Coles.

[Mokey]

Super subs doing the biz tonight.

[MN5]

Huge congrats to Owen Franks for breaking the ( non ) trying scoring record in internationals. 84 and counting !

[ACT Crusader]

Brodie a bit of white line fever a couple of phases there

being a fat prop, he's probably proud of it

Haha, and he was keen on getting that record, too!

Dunno if I'd go for scrum with our reserve front row

but what do I know. Solid scrum and try

[No Quarter]

Two cynical penalties in a row on their own line. I've seen YCs given for much less.

[Tordah]

imagine if that was the ABs under the cosh, conceding all those pens, how quickly would the scribes be all about the "cynical ABs?" doing everything to prevent a try and not even copping YCs?

[Billy Tell]

Another very solid display from the much-maligned Crotty.

Superglue in the midfield.

[Stargazer]

Geezus, Crotty is having a great night. Running a great line, again!

Where is NTA? He'd be demanding it!!

[Mick Gold Coast QLD]

NZ commentator says about Steve Hansen's mass replacements "Do you think they’ve got the message now?"

Heh, heh - if you are not going to play at the very top of your game I have other blokes sitting on the bench who can.

[Tordah]

nice move, that "flat" pass from TJP reminded me of the "flat" passes Genia threw regularly in 2010/11

[dingo]

Ben from Accounts is gold

[Billy Tell]

The decision to pull Aaron Smith was yet another masterful decision from Hansen.

[Mattasaurus]

Ben Smith is lovely to watch

[Tordah]

Ben Smith with his wonky Cullen impression there
