Bledisloe #1
-
The demise of the abs , it’s been happening slowly in front of us , and tonight it feels official
-
Most of the chat here is about the coaches. Most of the shit in the first half was players playing TERRIBLY. Let's not forget Ardie gives away a brain dead penalty because he HAS to make a point. That puts us in our own end and Barrett gets sent off. Most of the penalties we conceded in the first half were stupid and that was part of the problem.
I mean if Mounga can't work out that kicking the rugby ball there is a bad idea......Beale was even back for the kick.

Who’s this 22?

We are paying the price for having to make far 2 many tackles in the first half..too much energy going in having to make a come back..end of story...credit to Read,he’s stilling going strong ..

Did not see this coming.
Really tgought we were better than this.
What have you seen since 2017?
Think they got the selections as close to right as they could for the night, but having no game plan and Savea and Cane going in cold since the Argentina game etc etc...

@Rembrandt Mo'unga at 10 isn't the issue in this game.
-
This is a bad All Blacks team. Been living on past glories for some time.
Mitchell's ABs without the excitement.

So, ummm, guys. Will we retain the Bledisloe?
I don’t think they will, this has been a flogging and this team does not looking like having the ability to turn it around like in 2015, even more with the injuries/suspensions

It's sort of slipped under the radar with the "Savea to 6" move (WTF for me, has he ever started a game at 6 for the Canes?), but "probably the AB's best player in 2018" has been dropped to the bench.
I'm not convinced by this side:
*Can Ben Smith really still play 14 at the highest level?
*Is Savea really a 6?
*Does Bridge really add impact off the bench?
*If we're taking Laumape to Japan, and he's needed to start a game, is he up to it?The props selection is going to be interesting. I think Laulala is most likely to get the chop. Looks like Todd can pack his bags for Japan.
Should be fun too watch...not least the JOC to 13 move.

Wow, he’s called an offside against the Aussies.
