Born in Welly

[NTA]

Jeez it's a rough biscuit from any angle, eh?

[Stargazer]

@bones Oh, yeah, he played for them, last year. IIRC, he was terrible at 15s?

[KiwiMurph]

Great tackle Knewstubb

[Bones]

@stargazer can't remember eh.

He's playing with a physicality he hasn't shown before, looks a lot higher on confidence eh.

[NTA]

lol Webber is shit. He's such a handbrake on your attack in midfield and an idiot at ruck time on defence.

[KiwiMurph]

Molia's form is in the toilet.

Because he started off the match with a turnover that set the tone?

[antipodean]

What a dreadful effort. Good thing we were playing Canada.

[Yeetyaah]

I'm trying my hardest to enjoy sevens but I just can't. So many penalties and dumb shit. Maybe I've just watched the shit games.

I swear half of the penalties are refs just inventing shit.

[Stargazer]

I don't think the AB7s were that sh*t for most of the game, only the last few minutes the level went down.

[KiwiMurph]

@yeetyaah yeah between the standard of reffing and NZ's grinding style it's not a great watch. Hopefully the other quarters are better.

[Yeetyaah]

Ah yes NZ win, queue the overrated Australian band's music.

Despite the scoreline, only winning 3 tries to 2 against a team we blew off the park for the whole first half and a bit, is pretty poor.

[Canes4life]

They should chuck Caleb Clarke in there just for our viewing enjoyment.

[Stargazer]

@canes4life Not if he plays the way he has been playing all year.
