Can I hate the Irish team for their "soccer" antics and pressuring the ref?

I think our big work on is Beaudy, and the other kickers. Exits and kicking for position
They really don't trust Mo'unga though do they, even when they sub him on they leave Beauden out there

I think it says more about Beaudie. He’s an 80 minute player and has always been versatile. Plus he’s our backline senior player along with Aaron.
Halfback is a tougher position to get optimum for 80 minutes, especially with the pace we are playing at.

They should be better than that. Begging for YCs is poor form

So who thinks the second test will be really close? I do

It was pleasing to see some of our Forwards constantly getting over the advantage line big improvement there.
Savea,Scott Barrett,Bower,ST all good with ball in hand
For me Papali'i needs to start. -

For me Papali'i needs to start.Sadly with cane as Captain that would leave us with 3 7s. And I think we will see that next week. But Hopefully dog roll and Sam as locks, Brodie was lacking impact

I get that Papalii is quality, but fuck Cane is criminally underrated. I thought he was his usual awesome self tonight, coming up with some big tackles and got through a lot of work on d, what more do people want from him? The guy is a beast at this level and we're very lucky to have him and Papalii to choose from.

Even bigger margin

He and Barrett just don't look comfortable out there together do they?
Dmac and Barrett together looked much better when we saw it.
Would be hard to leave out Mo'unga on form, of course.

Especially based on Beauden tonight. BB had the service of a very good A Smith performance, but was pretty much anonymous except for stinking up his kicking game.
Also, did that Auckland pommy ginger Kirsty pass to Mo'unga once?

Why do you think the coaches use Mo'unga that way? They subbed him on but used him as a second play maker while Beauden continued to run the ship. For me, if they sub Mo'unga on then it has to be for Beauden so he can run the ship but it doesn't look like they trust him to do that? Mo'unga is a fantastic SR player but it really doesn't look like the coaches think he has what it takes at test level right now

SB could be in trouble for this. Dumb.

@African-Monkey 6 runs for 1 meter gained and 14 tackles is hardly earth shattering for an All Black 7 and captain.
