RWC Week 2: All Blacks v Namibia
-
Namibia are such a waste of space when it comes to World Cups. They’re always at them and they ALWAYS get fucken hammered. At least others minnows seem to improve a little bit here and there ?
Wank on all you want about ‘experience’ of being in a World Cup but that experience is hiding after hiding dating back to 1999

Yep. Wish another African team would step up.

@DaGrubster yep, if we score 100 we should have, it was only Namibia, if we score 50 we are shit cos we should have scored 100.
Also tough to try and play to a plan as holes that wouldn't usually exist open so players instincts kick in and take them
Yup, and you can’t blame them as we want them to play heads up rugby.
Also, it is probably counter productive to play the kind of rugby we want to in the qtr final etc as it will be easy to implement against Namibia but it gives our opponents a lot of data to analyse.
I am keen to see better discipline in areas such as set piece, defence and accuracy in breakdown work. That’s what we can take out of it I suppose.

Opposition is not very good. But Roigard surely has to be the bench 9. Just takes the right options every time.
We don't know how he'll go against top teams and when under pressure, but the signs are he'll do OK. His last two appearances will have done wonders for his confidence.

He's only played against second tier teams. Like SA...

BB can exit.
He did a couple last game, but stopped after half time

The question should be why?

Pearce has had a decent game so far. He’s a better referee than Barnes or the other English ref who did the Boks game at Twickenham.

Lol Ofa and Nepo are a circus act. Bunch of clowns.

@stodders Agreed. If he is just a pale imitation of Smith, what does he offer? Impact? Variation? Strategic advantage? X-factor? That’s a no!

Hey, stop that right now. He can’t help being a Ranga.
