Ultimate long game Sir Foz
Respect
Humble pie eaten

A little early for that, I think. First game last year was pretty fucking good too

Credit where credit is due. Absolutely wonderful from Ian Foster and his men. Black Magic! I didn’t think they had it in them. More please!

Credit goes to Ryan I suggest, one of the best forward performances in awhile, and without BBBR and Whitelock.

Nice, Frizell is having a great game. Not tested at all on defence though.

Looks a genuine lineout option out there which is a massive plus

[Stag]

Using the lasers again is pretty pathetic. All Blacks good across the board, Argentina not really challenging in any way.

Krusty will be throwing his toys all around that dressing room at half time.

[BerniesCorner]

Awesome
Sco Bo
Jo Bo
Rei Io
Aaron Smith

[Stag]

@BerniesCorner id certainly hold back on that till next week.

Best game I ever watched from Frizell. Lord very good too. Nice to see the AB forwards competing at each lineout. Scott Barrett has become one of the most important players in the AB pack.

Captain next year imo

For what it's worth, Mrs Meldrew, who knows about such things (bugger all about rugby, mind), thinks she's noticed a change in body language from when she saw them last year. Little talking amongst themselves, focussed attitude and minimal emotion. "They look very controlled and together"

I would argue Barrett is almost best player from the country at moment. By geez I enjoying this game so far.

@Machpants its the new Jersey and the 15 fern fronds...

More sensible haircuts this year too just quietly

Early days, mate. Been here before in the 1st game of the season but they do look much more like a proper team.

Just hope we continue in the same vein in the 2nd half.

Great half!

All Blacks all in black boots which is a change from past few years.

Sounds like a pub quiz. In which year did the entire ABs team wear black boots?

Reckon it’d be the 90s.

[MiketheSnow]

Can’t argue that NZ came to play

And thoroughly deserve this thumping

But this is the worst Argentinian team I’ve seen in some time

[Mattasaurus]

Probably fair to say we haven't been tested well on defense yet - but what defense has been required has been executed well. Good numbers to the break downs on defense and attack is very pleasing.

[BerniesCorner]

Sco Bo prob needs to start from here on in

[taniwharugby]

@Mattasaurus I think the few passages they have had they made easy inroads into our defence, but was our scramble defence saved 2 tries.
