Big difference with J Barrett, Frizell back. Two of our in form players back was always going to make a difference.

Nisbo has called Frizell Savea nearly everytime.

Good work Shag.

Ireland very lucky SA score there, yellow cards were on there way.

There’s a really dull 13 man game just for you.

Yeah I watched the prelim last night, very exciting. Perhaps the first 5 tackles are un-jackable

Those high take collisions used to be penalties, has it changed? Much prefer this version

Sexton doesn't know the rules

World cups, you take your points.

If this was a training run which made players look better than I'd say Luke Jacobson's probably played his last test.

New Zealand were unrelenting on Thursday evening as they rampaged to a 58-14 win over Namibia in their second Pool C outing of the Rugby World Cup 2015.

Because it's a rugby forum and there's a game of rugby on and we like watching and talking about rugby.

Bollocks. Smashing an opposition player in the head deserves the team to be punished for the remainder of the game. They are, they lose a frontline player for a quarter of the match and a disciplinary hearing which will add X missed matches on to a player. Unless you want to continue with this hit ...

It's time for the orange card. Yellow, 10 mins for repeated infringements. Orange, 20 mins player can't come back on back on but can be replaced, collisions or tackles outside the threshold. Red, player gone for game, deliberate foulplay, punching,stomping, biting etc. Sorted. Bollocks. Smashing an...

How often has Caleb Clarke played right wing?

rugga.

Barrett had two excellent spiralling clearances up over half way, that was his good kicking game. The rest was rubbish. We won the territory battle 56-44 in the first half, primarily due to his kicking. Mate I'm from Taranaki and have Barrett in my blood, and it pains me to diss on the guy, but if ...

Degroot scrummaging seemed to suffer from having Vaii out of position behind him, their timing seemed off on the hit. Barrett is terribly out of form, first option is kick poorly and let someone else chase. Telea should be on the right in his comfortable position, Jordan to fullback and Fainga'anuku...

Allow the player on the non-kicking team to jump. Unfortunately that still provides an opportunity for accidental collisions causing the in air player to fall dangerously, don't you care about the players welfare? The only way forward is to ban jumping for the ball. The rule has always been that th...

No mitigation

He was literally falling out of the sky, curry goes lower even more dangerous.

Jumping for the ball needs to become illegal if they really care about the safety of players.

They don't do Haka's

Of course they don't, they have an equivalent though, isn't that what we're talking about?

rugga.

If he was any lower he would have taken his feet out in the tackle, ridiculous that's a card.

Pretty much what I expected, people don't realise just how poorly coached this All Blacks team is.

France over $2 at the NZ TAB head to head, get your insurance bets in.

Anyone know what time team naming is. I wish the All Blacks were more open with their team naming times, every test week its like trying to find a needle in a haystack trying to find the naming time. Isn't it always in afternoon (about 2-3) 2 days before the test played ? And the time is usually th...

Caught up on both the All Blacks and Black Ferns NZR+ documentaries over the weekend. Thought the ABs one certainly offered some interesting scenes and insights (Jason Ryan came out of it looking very good imo as did McCaw), but mostly served as a fairly sanatised PR vessel for Foster and some of t...

Haven't read thread, but what does my head in, is an important attacking lineout when there's been little to no possession, thrown wildly down the back that's crooked or picked off. Just secure possession and build phases you phucking idiots. Also not attacking opposition lineout throws, it's not li...

Has everyone watched that NZR+ doco All Blacks in their own words, man that is some great viewing. Ardie Savea comes across so well, you'd think he's the captain.

Wait did I just read someone say it's not a big deal if we lose Retallick, like wtf

rugga.

Not bad for a team that had no Barretts

Christie gets unfairly maligned. Last year when the forwards were getting bullied no one would’ve looked good - Aaron Smith had a poor year as a point of reference. This year when Christie came on the Boks and the Argies were having their periods of ascension and disrupting the ruck. Roigard comes ...

Happy with the continuity of selection. For better or worse this is the XV that Foster wants to start against France, with the exception of Cane and perhaps Fainga'anuku (although his injury hasn't helped his case). I still think Whitelock is in our best XV, but fine with him coming back from injur...

All Blacks are named 11.30am NZT today, a little earlier than usual, but guess before they get on plane? Thanks mate, where did you find the time if you don't mind me asking? Twitter says 11.45am Yeah saw that, they tweeted about 20 odd minutes before naming. I always struggle to find what time tea...

But to the coaches, it's not the same. Why coach less dangerous tackles? You can always excuse dangerous play if it doesn't affect the team. Whatever the reasoning, it's a shit idea to reduce penalties when concussions are on the increase. Just smacks of ignoring player safety for more bucks. Doesn...
