Bledisloe Four: Brisbane, 7 November

Gotta say, really feel sorry for Akira. Was looking good, just staying in his channel and making really good contact.
@Tim yep, makes a mockery of the RC situation that essentially 2 players end up punished.

He did more than enough in 30min to warrant another look
@Kirwan man canโt catch a break , finally showing what heโs got..
-
Why did they take off Akira so early? He has been great! Fitness?
TJP is blowing near-certain tries-hook him. Get Piri Weepu out there!
Laumape has seemed rather quiet?@nostrildamus had to bring a prop of for scrums, so someone had to go...
-
TJP really is a headless chook at times. Akira looked great when he was on.
-
That's one of the worst halves of Bledisloe rugby I can remember.
Frenetic, no composure - both teams playing sevens.

Can he come back on as a replacement since he went off for a front row card replacement?

I'm quite enjoying this game - there is a lot scrappiness and passion out there, and now everyone is pissed off so it is cranking right up. Maximum effort.
Swinton was exactly what we needed and once he controls things he could be the next Fardy - not big enough to be Finegan.
-
Wobbles will take some comfort from not conceding in that last 5 minutes.
Interesting comparison between Read and Cane in how they responded to the RC. Cane just went up several gears and led from the front. Some dumb things from other experienced players who should have stayed just a bit more calm.
Good to see Reiko back, his defence has been exceptional. ALB looks seriously up for it as well.

@Machpants really? If Ardie goes off they cant bring him back on?

@Old-Samurai-Jack TJP is just a dipshit now,. isn't he. His good games are fewer and further inbetween.
Just stop the shit and clear it or run it. No bullshit.

@Gunner ta. I missed that.
-
@Machpants so Ofa can come back if Akira is doing his time?

Not sure that's worth a yellow for Koroibete
Laumape killed that ball I reckon.

Yep - arm guard on the deck, sealing it off while pulling it back. Koroibete was a bit silly in terms of going after the ball instead of just trying to roll him away.

@Machpants That sucks.
