All Blacks v France
-
Great fucking game!!
We've been the better side. Playing with good width and pace. Set piece is on top (defensive lineout giving me feels).
Very wary though. French discipline and defence has been good. And they are generating momentum through their forwards with ease. We need a few dominant tackles from someone. With Finau out I reckon we're a hard shoulder short with the forwards we have.

Don't forget our bench forwards

I haven't, at least they know what they have to do.
Someone has to step on and stop that momentum.

Took him what 30+ minutes to call his first offside against the French who had been camping on our side for the whole half.
Then his unwillingness to call obvious infringements at the breakdown. Not surprised by that because watching him ref previously he’s shown to be out of his depth in that area.

@ACT-Crusader the lack of reward for the scrum
Dominance is annoying me the most -

Yeah i struggle to disagree with you on those points - but i guess its a commentary on the state of officiating in last few years.. that it feels ok - good to me lol
-
Sevu Reece is so average
-
Well worked lineout drive to be fair
-
And Reece offside too
Forward power killing us. Completely different philosophy and theirs is winning at the moment
-
Bring PT on
-
Sevu a very poor start to the second half - missed a tackle to give them momentum and then penalty on the line
