RWC Week 1: France v All Blacks

[chimoaus]

Do we know what injury Cane picked up? Kaino is in France btw.

[taniwharugby]

So if BR can come off the bench, surely he can start...unfortunately exposes the poor decision around lock/loosie subs.

In terms of balance, this loose trio looks better, they just need to do it

[Stockcar86]

Ready

[Victor Meldrew]

Right. Pint by my chair, Mrs M under orders to say nothing for 90 minutes.

Let's go.

[sparky]

Getting a bit teary about God Defend New Zealand being played out in Saint Denis.

[No Quarter]

The choir for the national anthems is a great idea

[canefan]

After all his injuries I hope Anton can do the business. It will give us a legitimate second option to JB. Richie GOAT is there too. Could have suited him and Jerome up

[chimoaus]

Fucken put Richie, DC and Kaino out there.

[sparky]

O and the French have their song too.

[Mattasaurus]

Not convinced with Tupou Vaa'i - hope he plays the house down!!! (line out looks better with him though)

[SidBarret]

The ABs look unfocused in the build up

That Charlie Ngatai was a useful player...

[allblacksfan2]

Anthems need music

[nzzp]

Superb anthems - love the choir

[chimoaus]

Losing your Captain will have some impact.

[sparky]

Haka time.

[chimoaus]

Fuck it seems loud in there.

[Victor Meldrew]

Oh fuck. We have Miles Harrison commentating.

[sparky]

@Victor-Meldrew I’m listening to the radio 5 commentary instead.

I would actually be 100% OK with DC on the bench right now haha
