Started raining here

Has to be an advantage to us you would think

Yeah, we picked a huge pack with a hard tackling 6 well suited to the grind in the wet, plus we have a very tall right winger who is proven to be great under the high ball. :frowning_face:

I was talking more about ball handling , usually we handle that part better than the Aussies in the wet

Hmmm... Ball handling is pretty good this year eh.

@kiwiinmelb Usually we don;t get physically dominated toobut last game....

You expecting that twice in a row ? Just curious

No idea. Every media pundit is talking about the BLACKLASH - whelp we haven't seen one for ages

Draw vs Boks this year, Defeat to Ireland, Loss to SA last year, lost ot Lions - lots of talk about the ABs coming 'raginag back' after a defeat - but not for a couple of years now

I’m expecting a more physical response, more even possession, and the team that executes best will win

Our backs have also shown worrying levels of poor handling. Hard to imagine an Athletic Park - level effort from them tonight.

I think Ardie measured Reece.

Looks like slightly different conditions to last week. Have to say I haven't had this test match feeling for a while and I like it.

I recall when we finally got the Bledisloe Cup back in 2003. I was in holiday in Fiji with my young family. We watched the game on a big screen near the hotel. Half the Fijians were Lote Tuquiri supporters and half were Joe Rockokoko fans. It was a close match. Four points in it. I expect something similar tonight.

Not interested in a Blacklash.

Just want them to be intelligent, error-adverse and calm - and win.

Alright fuckers strap in

I've had a day where shit has gone wrong (my donkey) and right (the Lions)

So how does my day ultimately end up?

Not that I’m familiar with

[Donsteppa]

Now if Ardie was actually tall...

[chimoaus]

Bit of luck going ABs way so far.

[No Quarter]

Good start for the ABs. Destroyed their scrum and look dangerous with the ball.
