            Shit discipline.
            Shit ball handling.
            Shit ball security at rucks.
            Shit kicking.

            A couple of nice tries but not a lot else to like unfortunately.

            And that penalty on Jordan for taking the player out in the air, when he was the one taken out was absolute garbage.

                  ugh, that was a rough watch in the second half. France deserved the win.

                    I said it in the first half. This is a rope-a-dope. Other than the first 10 mins, they just kicked the ball deep and the ABs said "maybe this time we'll get it back" or I'll run it from my own line". Time and time again. I can't wait for the presser. "In many ways this was our best test. Foster, just PHUCK OFF. NZRU, would Razor had done any worse? Phucking embarrassment.

                          Should’ve had a good lead at halftime. We made them miss a lot of tackles but didn’t finish well

                          Second half was a mess

                            When you have opportunities you need to put scoreboard pressure on in the that first 40 because the home side wil always make a run in the second 40

                                Congrats to France. Won the game in the 2nd half.

                                I expected the French to win, so not too disappointed (as far as you can not be disappointed after an AB loss).

                                I actually expected France to be more dominant. They scored mostly off our mistakes, not because they created much.

                                  There was no dry powder.

                                  This team has nothing.

                                  I think a few old heads need to be culled and he has to roll the dice.

                                  Id launch Beaudy, Mo'unga, Vaai, ALB,Nepo, Christie for a start.

                                  Give me DMAC. Move Jordan to 15. Roigard has to be in.

                                  And get Finau or Blackadder in the squad immediately.

                                    Wish I was in France, congratulating some French hotties, and allowing them to console me.

                                      Absolutely smacked
                                      France won thr kicking
                                      France won the set piece
                                      France won the contact

                                      ABs made errors. ABs gave away penalties. ABs decision makers were terrible.
                                      We're fucking cooked. Send us home

                                          Two people who need much greater criticism: Schmidt and Ryan.

                                          They continue to select for and play this game.
