Is that the first positive impact I have ever seen for Vaa’i?

There are three work-ons for the All Blacks from this game:

Discipline, discipline and discipline.

And foster selections

That gets fixed in 2024...

Caleb Clarke in.

Fell over nicely

[Billy Tell]

We’ve kept our structure despite woeful opposition. Happy enough but much tougher battles ahead.

[stodders]

@Darren he’s been working on his learnings

Not happy with discipline

[chimoaus]

Fair play to CC, ran straight and fast without the ball.

Nice patience. Just in time to fall over the line too.

Whatever the opposition, good to get the vibe back in the squad.

@Billy-Tell yep, never gonna get much out of this, best you can ask for is no injuries

[sparky]

64-3.

seriously where are the loosies - Smith had to secure that ruck.... considering what the Boks and France did to us in that area of the game - I have seen nothing to instill confidence in that area of the game tonight - maybe a little hard on just the loosies (it is their core job) but in general we are very slow to the breakdown both offensively and defensively....

CC always looks like a 12 to me - where he can use his size and not be confused by the open spaces

Lots of decision making needed at 12. Maybe a league centre?

Up and under and good counter ruck. One thing Clarke does better than Jordan…he doesn’t clatter the man in the air and get a YC

[dejo]

nice shot of Fozzie eating a bag of lollies

[Machpants]

Poor decision and kick by DMac, I'm not as hyped with his performance as everyone else seems to be
