All Blacks vs Fiji 2

@frank lol I’ve had that pic for years.
Savea is perfectly fine as a 7 at international level. The problem at the World Cup is he had next to no time in that position leading into the Semi Final and was surrounded by an aging Read who you could argue shouldn’t have been there anyway.
Bullshit that he’s not upto it against the bigger teams. Are you blind, he’s been dominant tonight and I wouldn’t say Fiji are small.
With Cane out all year it’s going to be hard bringing him back if Savea and Papali’i dominate.
@canes4life
It's his playing style.
Does not have dominant defence.
Good in other areas. -

I think the game has got away from this ref
Kick off whistle must have startled him

I'm sorry but brad Weber is not all blacks quality

Scrappy finish. Fiji have not stopped having a crack. We haven't broken them like I expected.

Dmac takes some hits doesn't he!

I think you can have Savea there if you have someone like Jacobsen at 8. It’s all about balance.
If they decide to pick Cane then they need someone like Sotutu at 8.
The thing that annoys me is that they seem to f up that loose forward balance when it matters most.

Fiji not dying in the last ten
It’s actually not uncommon in rugby for a team that is down by plenty of points to have a late run. It’s quite uncanny.

The mullet is a great cushion when his head hits the ground…concussion might explain the smile

Ok, we’ve found a few things for the future - De Groot is better than Bower and has a future.
And, Take’aho can play at this level.
