Wow. Can't believe what I've just seen. Barnes 07 style of game

I think this was worse actually

We are too nice in the media. We have to go fucking ape shit over this.

Since 2017 we have been turning the other cheek.

[Victor Meldrew]

Progress. We didn't go to shit until the 70th minute - despite the crap refereeing

Right on cue, BB kicks and gifts the ball away

Just silly to give them a chance of possession to see out the match.

[KiwiMurph]

The ref sucked but the ABs got smoked in the last 15-20 minutes is the uncomfortable truth

That is a hard loss to take because we let them back in with our stupidity. I felt the 5 metre lineout was when we failed to nail it. A simple maul would have been better than the complicated move we did.

The lack of composure is a huge worry.

[nostrildamus]

Loosies still ain't right. BB's position still looks shaky to me.

[sparky]

Another game spoiled by abysmal refereeing.

We were dumb in the last 10 minutes of the game.

Barnes Carley and Brace are on the Mount Rushmore of supercilious, smug, incompetent officials.

[nostrildamus]

The bomb squad is just marketing, Kwagga Smith is the bomb.

Looking forward to lots of talk about taking the learnings, but unless you take the learnings it's just talk.

Bugger!

[ACT Crusader]

RWC QF payback….

[Jet]

Finau was shite

[Donsteppa]

Rubbish final ten from the All Blacks. Once again some of the experienced hands with the bigger brain explosions.

Referee is Irish, so no surprises there.

[booboo]

Difficult to watch with a Third Div ref.

Will grudgingly admit they ground us down, in the 2nd half, but made easy.

I'd not get too cocky if I was a Jaap.

[nostrildamus]

On the good side, we clearly have a team that can win against S Africa.

[MiketheSnow]

NZ blew that

Dumb dumb rugby

Ball should have been kicked dead at around 77 mins to get Ofa back on the pitch

NZ played with 14 for the last 3 minutes when they didn't need to

Yes Brace was rubbish but NZ have themselves to blame

Yes, not converting from that 5 m lineout was a big miss.

A good test match where unfortunately the ref will be the big talking point.

Clarke better have been injured as that was a terrible sub otherwise.

NZ didn't select the ref.
