All Blacks v Australia - Bledisloe II
-
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.

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...

That first half has been personally chastening based on my current opinions of who should and shouldn't be in the side.
Maybe that's why Ian Foster is sat in the coaches box and im sat in my underpants with no hopes, dreams or prospects.

I feel bad for the likes of Stevenson Willoams, Finau, McLeod, and a few others, to go into a match v Aus with this many changes was always likely to go this way.
Lack of gametime and combos not ideal, but good for us to be tested if we come back...

Fuck Stevenson looks dejected in the changing rooms, he knows he’s not going to the WC.
The way he's playing, it's probably just as well he's not going. He'll embarass himself

The look on his face when he dropped that admittedly bad pass. He looked gormless and embarrassed.
Every other Allblack winger has been mustard this year so far. Doesn't bode well.

@taniwharugby on a hiding to nothing , and in the case of Stephenson lets play him out of position for good measure as well
