@Tim said in All Blacks vs Wales:
Should never have lost that lineout.
That looked like a slightly mistimed jump or lift to me, Sam W was still going up as it went over? But you right Tim, needs to be cleaner.
I struggling to get too carried away with the game, I think after the Black Ferns last night I just not getting into this. -
@JC said in All Blacks vs Wales:
What is Barnes seeing at those breakdowns?
The breakdown is refereed in the Northern Hemisphere completely differently to in the South.

Yeah, with dice!

Agree with above, Samisoni and Akira on eslry please. Frizzel in particular has been very ineffective (again)
-
ABs playing well Good accuracy. Savea very good

@Stargazer said in All Blacks vs Wales:
Taylor has been excellent. No need to sub him so early.
ST is excellent every time he plays. I would give him a solid 35minutes here.

Yeah let him play himself back into some kind of form. Soni on at 55 mins.

Keep the discipline

We basically played 9 man rugby in attack in that first half. The backs didn’t get the ball unless they had too.
Not many touches or carriers for 10-15

And that's a good thing. That is how we're going to win a World Cup with a sprinkling from the backs when it is on.

We have a forward pack

I am still far from convinced about Shannon Frizzell at this level.

So I've been driving with the iPad streaming. Is it me not being able to look at the screen consistently or is it just Barnes seeing ghosts again?
-
As much as the ABs are talented, they are thick as shit with exits and game management at "sensitive" moments. Having said that, this is not headless chook stuff. They are going up the middle and Wales is finding it difficult to cope. Good to see!

Gameplan sensible and is working. Now we need to sort out the managment of the referee and the defence.

If we are going to play like that for 80 then we should go for a 6-2 bench because it’s energy sapping stuff for our forwards.

Not sure why Smith kicked that away we had good turnover ball
