    @stargazer id be tempted to bring him on at 15 and shift Nanai to 14. Naholo has been poor so far.

    Looks like the coach has read your post and took your advice! 😄

        Damn, the skinniest prop in the world scores out wide for the Aussies.

          Aus dominating the lineouts. Beautiful try Australia. The game is really opening up.

            NZ might have missed out on a try there - looked to be over the line.

            Nice break out from Oz.

              Lucky McClutchie could tackle that Aussie wing, or it would have been a try. That 14 is fast.

              Now a nasty high tackle on Faingaanuku; yellow card.

                        Didn't know that in school rugby, if a forward is in the bin, the opposing team also has to scrum with 7 players.

                          Although he missed the conversion, Toala has already had a huge impact in the 2nd half.

                                Damn, Fakatava must be injured because neither of these two halves today look like they're up to his standards.

                                  @nepia Uhm, yeah, that's why he's not in the squad. Not followed the thread? Got injured in the Top 4 semi against St Kent's.

                                        Good win in the end; the second half was much better than first. Faingaanuku, Toala, Flanders & Vaa’i were IMO the best.
                                        The team could have performed better if they'd played more like a team, but I guess they haven't had enough time together for an optimal performance. I stick to what I said before the game; they should have started Toala and McClutchie.

                                          Sheild spent too much time looking at the ball, not what you want from a halfback. Get a haircut boy!

                                          A decent win in the end but not a great game. Aussie's scramble defence was very good though.
