All Blacks vs Tonga

[taniwharugby]

@Dice I played golden oldies with a few ex super players last year, and yea these guys don't lose the skills.

Ref pretty lax on some rules

[ACT Crusader]

Love the yellow card fake - pull the hanky out

[ACT Crusader]

Rua Tipoki still with the quick feet

[Dice]

This ref has been too whistle happy.

[Dice]

We had a wall move sighting. Didn't work, but it was still beautiful.

I think he was okay. Some pretty blatant stuff out there and I thought he tried to let it flow as much as possible.

That was a bit of fun , some nice ball handling skills even if the legs have deserted them .

[Rembrandt]

Really enjoyed that. Terrific idea and cause.

How cool is afternoon test rugby? It's like welcoming back an old friend

Is there a reason for the blue and orange (tape?) boots?

Are they the RWC issue boots?

Mental health awareness maybe?

[No Quarter]

Backline moves carving them up so far

Reiko would have scored there. :face_savouring_delicious_food:

I got excited when 11 got the ball thinking Rieko was in space

[Nepia]

Reece in for a try.

[No Quarter]

Very slick start from the ABs.

Rieko would have scored on the left but nice finish from Reece on the right.

Or the black lines on the field. Looks like they might have forgotten to do them earlier and found some diesel and a stray paint brush and painted them on as a quick fix.

That's quite interesting, although I didn't notice until you just mentioned it.

I like the way they used Ardie on that inside ball, I assume that they will use this game to test that sort of thing.
