All Blacks v France Test #1
-
Playing Cane and Whitelock isn’t working. Squire is apparently out there, but we’ve got no go forward beyond Scott Barrett.
Shit decisions by a bunch of senior players, including the captain, and a midfield who look like they met today.
First game and all that, but this is fucking shit.

Yep looses aren't doing shit.

We have been on top but the French defence worries us. It means we will have to show a bit of patience in this half to break them down. I think we haven't been too bad. We have surrendered field position at bad times to turnovers and penalties. The positive is that our ruck ball has been lightning fast.

@kiwimurph Squire, when he has had the ball, has made some yards but I know who you are thinking about.

Squire anonymous against a decent pack? Wow, so shocked.

@gt12 yep, Luke is really a poor man's Sam Cane. The guy hasn't been bad but he's just a bit meh.
He’s a great tackler, but it’s just like having two Canes out there (one less good than the other) and Cane has been pretty quiet too, to be honest.
French team are good, but have lived off chances we’ve given them - and I’m looking at your Aaron Smith.

@rapido Nah. One of the analysts or coaches has dickhead glasses like that.
I was wondering who the fuck that was

Who turns down 3 in front of the post with 90 seconds left in a half? Honestly? Who does that?

Sir, sir. New Zealand, sir.

@rapido the guy many people think is a better captain than Read?
@taniwharugby To be fair, Read would have done the exact same thing.

I think we are going ok for the first game. One silly error lead to a try. Quite a few opportunities created. I feel like we are getting on top.
-
ABs look rusty - to be expected.
Not the same sans Brodie & Kieran.
Goodhue must wonder what he has to do to get a shot at 13.
Jordie is a keeper. He looks as tall as his brother Scott. ABs wont lose to many up 'n' under battles with him at 15.
I do wish it was BB to 15 and RM to 10 rather than DMac, although he might just do something special I suppose.
As expected, the French are putting up a good show. They were very unlucky to lose to Ireland in the 6N.
