All Blacks v Australia - Bledisloe II

Bell might be one of the best props going around, the man makes some metres and gets busy, almost like another loose forward.

The anti-Laulala.

Coles will probably get carded

We really miss Beauden at the back, as a 2nd play maker and organiser. Jordan is a great player but better suited to wing at this level. Stevenson looks like a Super rugby player so far, dangerous on attack but being targeted by the opposition for his poor defense, which is not unexpected. Hopefully some subs just after half time can shift momentum...

Look at the big picture though. Was this the crap half of Rugby we needed to stir any complacency out of the squad?
I expect a big second half from the ABs, especially when Aaron Smith and Dane Coles come on.

Nah, we’re just playing crap.
A number of players have done dumb things and given away silly penalties, not executed at set piece whether giving away scrum penalties or not throwing well at lineout. Cut those poor mistakes down.
Oh and yeah, too many Chiefs

Mackenzie showing he's only good when provided a dominating platform up front. Can't manage a game at all.

It’s all about game management.

Christie continues a poor season. Not many ball carriers out there.
Mackenzie's worst game in years. Jordan not a fullback.

Much maligned, but Ennor looked the best ball in hand. Close in exchanges and out wide.

He ran straight, which helps.

Jacobson on please
have the loosies been the problem? Given Foster won't bench Cane unless he is injured.

The 3 Barrett boys engines are certainly missed.
Particularly Scot and Jordie.
The gap from Scot to Vaii is gargantuan.
Vaii went to the Patty Tuipolutu school of physicality......and didn't graduate.
@Steve Va’ai did land a sweet clean out against two Wallabies that gave us front foot ball to attack off.

Eddie must be going through the tissues.
