France v All Blacks

Bones

We tend to bag him a bit , but great try saving tackle by Naholo earlier

After he almost missed him... the weakest runner in the back line...

Donsteppa

8 missed tackles so far?

Yeah, it was a good turn, but he's been caught out coming off his wing a couple of times.

Good start by Savea.

Rucks are a proper mess. At least we seem to have adapted to Barnes early.

Haha "New Zealand really do sail close to the edge of the rules" straight after the French have given away a penalty

antipodean

Brilliant from Todd.

He's having a very good game thus far.

Savea looks in best condition he has been all year. A month off fried chicken seems to have done the trick. Let's hope he looks that way next year.

Mokey

Haha to Wayne Barnes' "franglais" as TJ so eloquently put it. ABs look good with ball in hand.

mariner4life

Again we score almost as soon as we get the ball. Skewing the possession stat

Jeez this gate at the breakdowns is pretty bent...

Some very poor misses out there....another through the side gate

Gunner

Jeez this gate at the breakdowns is pretty bent...

Staying on your feet seems entirely optional too.

Stargazer

Dagg's boot. Awesome.

chimoaus

TJ sure cleans up well on D.

chimoaus

Fuk me the lineout throwing is not exactly straight.
So far.

taniwharugby

How did Barnes not notice that wasn't straight?

chimoaus

Love the flair of the French so far, their ball exchanges are a joy to watch.

Nepia

How did Barnes not notice that wasn't straight?

That's maybe the most obvious not straight I've ever seen in rugby.

Tordah

so so many linebreaks, France look good and then somehow scramble defence is just enough to hold them out

booboo

What the hell is Charlie Faumuina doing playing for Fance?

Stargazer

Crotty and ALB tackling like their lives depend on it!
