Great tackle from Mo'unga, but still a try to the French. Drummond and Hunt should have stopped that try scorer.

2017 2nd half woes continue

Wait a minute didn't we start the second half behind?

It really was a peach of a tackle. Many tens would have missed that.

But what a run. Ball in both hands the whole way.

[dogmeat]

Thank God someone had the brains to make the in goal tackle effectively depriving the French of two points

[Stargazer]

Bloody hell, that was hardly a high tackle. Tiddly winks.

[canefan]

The TMO is taking the piss

[taniwharugby]

@canefan no idea, only following the game on here, and sounds like they are falling to pieces in the last 20, whereas we always killed teams in this period

[Tordah]

This is the best example of how TV replays can influence a game. Ridiculous

[canefan]

The ref is helping keep the French in it with a series of pretty innocuous calls overturned by the TMO

[dogmeat]

I've only seen the last 20 minutes but I can't agree with the criticism of the adjudication. They're ruling to the letter of the law. We put ourselves in this position by poor technique and careless tackling - mainly because we are in danger of being over-run

[chimoaus]

NZ fail to win own lineout scrum to zfrance on half way.

[canefan]

Fark, knock on after getting the turnover

[Stargazer]

Goodhue back on.

[chimoaus]

Last play of game is France scrum 30m out.

[Stargazer]

Half a minute to go ...

The obstruction call when we were hot on attack and lining up a penalty was weak

[No Quarter]

Hahaha owned!!!

[chimoaus]

NZ scum kills zfrance, ball to NZ and we win.

[canefan]

Great scrum to take the chockies

[Stargazer]

Full time: ABs win 28 to 23. Glad this young, inexperienced team has been able to defeat a French team with many more caps, but no doubt, less quality.
