Clear & direct shoulder contact on Mackenzies head. Should have been a card.
Mitigated to yellow as DMac was dropping down?

DMac runs sideways and gets smashed. Deservedly. Hopefully Foster takes the field so he too can have some sense knocked into him.
FFS dude we know you don't like him, but he got a bad pass from Havilli and had nowhere else to go.
Like everyone does not like Bridge, you mean?

Well that's not true, you and a few others on here are big fans.

Not his biggest fan but DMac is one hard little mother fu*ker.
Whatever opinion anyone might have of him, he ain't lacking in intestinal fortitude.

This is a good Fijian side. Big men playing European rugby. The ABs kryptonite is not winning physical battle. Good test.
@kev yep soft underbelly

Doesn’t this indicate that the real future for Tonga and Samoa is just getting more players playing in Europe?

Can't remember the ABs giving away so many penalties at the breakdown.
Can't remember a ref willing to penalise them so many times

It's what happens when you get a Kiwi to ref them

The European sides are a lot more physical than this.

Marshmallows are more physical than the ABs forwards ATM

This new structure the All Blacks are playing is excellent. You can really see the benefits of weeks in camp.

Fiji have the skills, speed, and fitness to be a test Rugby tier 1 nation and if they got more time together, they'd make it a reality.
That was individual lack of skill, that awful tackle on havili, not team work

No All Black ever missed a tackle of course
