Re: Dead Bled, Live RC: WALLABIES v ALL BLACKS, Perth, 2025
Most pleasing aspect of the game for me was that we were able to control a game for a change.
Yes we went behind but we were able to build momentum and pressure for much of the game and it started to tell with Oz making more and more errors and riskier plays.

Nothing I have seen from Leicester since he has returned has indicated that he is quick enough to be a starting winger. If anything he looks heavier and slower than when he left.
