[chimoaus]

This really is NZ game to lose, it seems the French waiting for us to make errors.

Purposely stayed out of it

ITV are the affirmative action of TV coverage

If Peyper (or Paper as he’s known on ITV) is anywhere near the knockout stages then it’s a lottery

NZ have got this if they believe in themselves

I only have the one bad call in 40mins from Jaco - felt he was pretty good

That’s what we said at half time in 99

[Tim]

Really feel that 5 minutes of good play could win us this game.

Reiko coming of age at 13, can I say having Cane out strengthens the loose forwards... Actually pretty happy, ABs look fairly good.

To be fair I was worried he was (wrongly) going to go his pocket for the aerial contests early on.

[Tim]

I hate this 10 minute down time. Awful.

[chimoaus]

Ofa coming out the wrong tunnel lol.

We need more from Ardie.

And he didn't bow to the hysteria.

[taniwharugby]

@Mattasaurus yeah largely consistent, missed 2 poor clean outs either way.

[Canes4life]

@ACT-Crusader he’s been solid but yeah hopefully once the game opens up Ardie can do his thing.

[chimoaus]

Not good start

[Tim]

telea will score two tries

[kiwiinmelb]

Telia looks a handful for opposition defences , could be our nms of this cup

[Canes4life]

Massive by Ardie.

[Stockcar86]

Finally

Papalii holding his shoulder.

[ACT Crusader]

Poor restart read. We started going deep and it was a short kick.

[Stargazer]

Yussssssssssss.
