Wales v All Blacks

@MiketheSnow said in Wales v All Blacks:
Well you've found your back 3
If Razor goes away from that then he's dumber than we think
Centres looked good despite all the whinging on here. No better or worse than what's been picked this year
DMac with Roigard and you have a totally different back line proposition which will score tries for fun against everyone
Not just Wales
Well Roigard - DMac; CC-WJ-Love 15 is such an upgrade. Why can't they see it?
-
@MiketheSnow Haven't seen it.
I like the way he lets the game flow, without it becoming chaotic. He'll talk rather than whistle.
I don't like the refs who keep slowing the action down. Fans pay to watch Rugby not the official.

how old is Devlin? I remember him visiting our school to talk about being an alcoholic and that wasn't exactly a few years ago. (I may be a spring chicken, but a highly seasoned one).

He'd be 60 at least by now I would have thought.

My missus went to the match and said it's the best atmosphere and spectacle she can remember in decades
They need to work on the smoke
That was bullshit
Trying to recreate 1905?

He seemed oldish when he visited our school in the 80s!

@nostrildamus 60-61 according to Wikipedia. He was born in 1964.

I must have the wrong guy, he's practically an embryo!*

That's what my valley looked like when I was growing up

DMac is our No.1 . We've known that for a long time esp. since Ireland 2024. That shit is frustrating.
We saw enough of Love against Wales to suggest he needs to be there for the long term. The long returns alone had me convinced. Jordan to 14, Clarke on the other wing. The air squad is born. -

I love that stadium, none better. Close to the pitch.
The boyos always make sure it's a great occasion. -
And the Welsh crowd know their Rugby and love their team. Great to hear them in (near) full voice yesterday.

Shittings! For someone who stuck by Foster and the explanations you stated in his defense.......

Or am I mixing up the posters?

Actually, I thought Foster should go post the Irish series loss - not that he was as bad a coach as people made out, but he wasn't the one to sort out the problems, which went far deeper. Despite that, he did pretty well in the end, certainly compared to Coach Jesus, and the shit thrown at him from NZR down was unbelievable.
We've gone backwards under Robertson and, unlike Foster, he doesn't seem to be able to run a happy ship nor does he actually coach if we take what he says at face value. Two years in and he's made thing worse
Not all his fault, of course, but he has to take a fair share of the blame in over-inflating his abilities and creating the current poisonous atmosphere which seems to exist between NZR and top NZ coaching talent.

Wales were never going to beat NZ but with 14 men for 20 mins I thought we did really well
I’ll throw it out here now
We won’t get the wooden spoon this 6N
Great tries fair play
I’ve definitely changed my opinion of Edwards
He’s getting better by the game
Put Jac Morgan and Wainwright in that back row and we're winning far more clean, quick ball
And we're slowly building a back line who can take advantage of that
I hope you are right. Wales are so disadvantaged with resources against tier 1 nations that they pretty much always overachieving.
Will be good to see them inprove and competitive against tier 1 teams

I thought the ref was fine
We've certainly had worse.
I didn't blow up at any of her calls in play, so sm iInterested how our Welsh posters saw her given my lack of indignation.
She was bullied out of awarding Jordan's try though.
She'll do plenty more tests.
I thought WJ was held up
Don't agree. She was talked out of trusting the evidence of her own eyes by an inconclusive super slomo.
Not true mate - the TMO showed her the footage and said he couldn’t overrule and she went against her own decision anyway
Yeah okay.
"I can't overule you" ... but I am.
These pricks talk in code. He 100% told her to overule herself.
The pregnant pauses...the double speak.
Once you start to see it you cant unsee it.
