All Blacks vs Wales

[kiwiinmelb]

Dont be surprised to see Barrett out there early

[JayCee]

<p>1st half summed up by Retallick woeful tackle attempt on the Welsh 15 before his break away. </p>

[dogmeat]

At the game watching end on to the ABs I reckon our defence is even worse than shown on tv.

[Billy Tell]

<p>Dagg gets a lot of shit, but Dagg 15, Smith 14 would have been handy.</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>The player some considered the weakest link in the backs - Crotty - has actually been one of the best. 11, 13, 14 and defensively also 15 have been poor. Cruden having a good game, except ... his goal kicking.</p>

[sparky]

Cane and Naholo disappointing. Ardie Savea and BB should be on earlier after half time.

[booboo]

1. Tackle<br>
2. Hold ball<br><br>
   Do that and we win going away.<br><br>
   Otherwise ... leave them close and they believe ...

<p>Lucky NZ score so many points that they don't need a reliable goalkicker...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Wales have been very impressive, but some of the NZ defence is woeful.</p>

<p><strong>Cane is absolutely not McCaw - he is really being missed :(</strong></p>

<p>Captaincy or playing? He's been getting through a shit tonne of work and that dive to secure the ball was almost a carbon copy of McCaw.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I hope Barrett comes on early, Naholo is compounding his poor play by looking disinterested and lazy.</p>

<p>He is tackling like a demon and has very handy at the breakdown. If he doesn't top the tackle count after 80 I will be shocked (Savea surely replaces Kaino).</p>

<p>I'll be relieved! With Smith to the right wing...</p>

It didn't take you long kiwi....<br><br>

<br>
Cane? He is the least of our problems!

[dingo]

<p>This game is so loose, BB and Ardie could rip up given the chance</p>

[Baron Silas Greenback]

<p>Cane is doing very well.</p>
<p>Jeez the problems are elsewhere</p>

[Donsteppa]

<p>Cane will do even better if the other flanker turns up sometime.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Excellent. Bye bye pie features. Barret on.</p>

[ACT Crusader]

Yeah I think Cane has been strong. Not winning TO ball but making his tackles. <br><br>
Good sub this

[taniwharugby]

Fekitoa done anything on offence tonight?

[ACT Crusader]

A bit telegraphed that cross kick

[kiwiinmelb]

Naholo on the left , it could be a sign , that he and savea may end up competing for the same spot , similar types ,<br><br>usually we work best with a fb hybrid type on the other
