That is odd... Not sure I agree with that at all, the evidence was not conclusive.

Wayne must be missing the good ol' days of the 2007.

Nosferatu has fantastic presence of mind with the ball in hand.

Was reading a live feed. Sounds like the Wales played some footy for once and the ABs are missing the old boys in defense. Still a win by a good margin.
Hansen will be telling the new boys to step up or step out soon I'd say. Our midfield stocks need SBW and Ranger back IMO

Some of the first up tackling was schoolboy bad. Savea and Noholo particularly. Made North look good.

While they'll probably give them another go next week under the guise of 'letting them redeem themselves', I hope we're nearing the end of playing both Savea & Naholo on the wings. It's one or the other, with a much more well-rounded player on the right wing.

Plenty for us to work on after that. Missed far too many first up tackles, and were pretty wacky around the breakdown. Some class rugby from both teams at times, but it was a classic rusty first test performance from the All Blacks.
Although McCaw and Carter are once in a generation players, I think we'll miss the Nonu/Smith midfield axis the most. Agree with Zero about the balance of the back 3 too.

Wales did well and took opportunities by giving things a go they might previously have dealt with more conservatively.
But clearly the All Blacks were holding something back in the first half. For instance, I don't recall a single long kick from deep behind a set piece.
You can't argue with a 24-3 second half.

Just seen that pass for the disallowed try. Thats filthy from Barnes. Useless cnut. The ball is parallel with the camera the whole time.
He needs bigger shorts too. And not to skip leg day. And to get some sun on his legs. Twat

He wears those shorts to distract you from his shitty decision making

Finally found time to watch what Wayne Barnes thinks is a forward pass. Question for me is; is he stupid or a cheat?

I think the tight shorts are cutting off blood to the brain.
