All Blacks vs Fiji

[Machpants]

So ABs always had 60+ on Fiji, another great record for Foster's ABs

This is a good physical fijian side, but we are letting them out muscle us, we have no fire

Mongrel required…
Last weeks loose trio looks to have the upper hand over this weeks mob.
Robinson would also add some mongrel… hang on he’s got to make the squad first.

Last weeks opposition was barely NPC level.

You play what’s in front of you…

Exactly. And what was in front of the ABs last week was not even remotely test quality. This Fijian side is test quality.

Yep and our loose trio have been schooled…

You get found out in tough games.

[Yeetyaah]

@machpants can't accept that one. Fiji have a great team full of NH players who can go the distance.

[Stargazer]

What?

[taniwharugby]

@machpants well id have not thought 60+ when you look at the 2 line ups

@nepia I'm sensing you get a little sensitive about Blues players receiving constructive criticism.

Well since you took a humorous post seriously, I can't say there's been much constructive criticism in your posts, you've been the equivalent of a one man Fern laying into Bridge last week.

Plus, if you'd said Magpies players then you might have a point. I've taken the names of all the BBBR criticisers and will extract my revenge at a later date.

Bollocks. They've been in quarantine until a few days ago, utter wank

Fiji got a forwrd pack, well done.

AB Coaches have to go, not on this performance, but for the body of work over the last 18 months. It's embarassing.

[Yeetyaah]

@machpants you're not giving them any credit for building over the last 10 years.

[akan004]

Keo's son was correct. Our forwards are frail.

Agree, there is no way they should be this close, especially after being down to 14 for the last 10

[Old Samurai Jack]

AB forwards being bullied.

[Bones]

Crusaders penalty fest rugby coming back to bite us... quello surpriso

[Nevorian]

Yep good drive by Fiji probably would have scored

[Anonymous]

60 minutes into a test match against Fiji and the All Blacks have a reasonable chance of losing. Never thought I'd see that

A great team?

Hmmm dunno about great.

I thinks it’s more they’re pretty good and this All Blacks side is equally one of the weakest we’ve seen in the last 25 years.

[kiwiinmelb]

Whats the highest score Fiji has scored against the abs ?I’m guessing that’s getting broken

[No Quarter]

Why was that not a YC?

[gt12]

I like Sotutu as a player but he’s not a physical number 8. He’s barely involved in defense and missed about as many tackles as he has made (3 made, 2 missed).

I am not as surprised as I once might have been, but BBBR Is leading all All Blacks in tackles missed (3).

Jason Ryan has done a good job with the Fiji forwards. Not a lot of staying on their feet at the rucks though.
