All Blacks vs Wallabies I
-
With a 10 who isn't a scatterbrain still thinking he's playing Super Rugby and a 13 who can pass, that game is done and dusted by halftime.
Would agree though that the tries conceded were as soft as as fűck. Definitely a concern.

See also Will Jordan on this.
Feel like he is overrated.
Riding the back of the space created by better AB teams.
Love would be a better option at 15.
Jordan is a 14 or nothing.While your point on his position may have merit I think you are harsh on Jordan there. He has scored tries from nothing that basically no other Allblack has been doing since “PlayStation Beaudy”.
Jordan’s tries against Ireland in the cake tin, the chip and chase against Wales and USA, the semi final try against Argentina display a skill nobody else in the squad has shown us. The only other time an Allblack has created a “hold my beer” moment in recent memory was Roigard against the Boks in Twickenham.
And remind me, what position was he playing when he scored those tries?

Winger, although to be fair he actually scored some of the tries mentioned from infield, something he could do more readily from fullback.

Back from the game!
Amazing experience
The way the AB’s built into that, unleashing dry powder in small increments whenever required, just a masterclass in modern rest match rugby.
The crowd was also unbelievable, the noise and energy just took it to another level.
Hard to imagine us losing a game on the EOYT tour from here, or even through RWV 2027 really
Hopefully NZR is extending Razors contract tonight before SA make him an offer he can’t refuse

Aumua (4), Ioane and Cane (3) had the most missed tackles. Savea and Ioane with 3 turnovers lost each.
I voted for Rieko on the strength of his scrambling defence so that stat surprised me. Savea made the most tackles (17) but not a dominant tackle amongst them.

I wonder if they counted his tackle on one of the aussies as he was diving over for a try...?

Watched a few interviews this week in the buildup via the Allblacks media channels.
Highlights were Razor being asked about surfing with Joey Johns and Tamaiti Williams being asked about whether he gets poo on his hands changing nappies.
Ironically enough the only person with shite all over his hands is the head coach.

They are dire. Most of the players speak in this weird pseudo corporate soundbites. Sound stupid and actually say nothing of consequence.
Savea is the worst.
I’d rather they just let them be themselves and say what they want instead of praising their teammates for being humble, find everything exciting and they walk towards pressure 🤮

I didn't say played well. I said good game. On any analysis, a 3 point loss would be considered good. And look at all the commentary about the fightback. Fk me it should have been 52-28

FINALLY EdG gets done for overextending
Tupou conceding
Have a look at the overhead angle and watch EdG boring in as well. If he can't keep his feet, that's not Tupou's fault.
There is nothing illegal about a scrum that goes backwards, provided it stays up and everyone is bound

that is shocking for Aumua given he came off the bench.

At scrum time, Ethan de Groot's left leg is very far back. Not only does this cause him to lose power, it also throws him off balance and he tends to lose his footing. He always looks overextended. Williams looks a better scrummager to me. Tosi scrummed well. His run was powerful and impressive. He should have come in sooner as Lomax looked cooked. The game was not as physical as the two against SA but there were a lot of runs, thanks to two poor defences.
@cgrant agreed. De Groot reminded me of Nepo Laulala flattening out all the time. Razor lost momentum throwing him back in. Should've started Williams IMO. And yes Lomax was gassed. Why are they running him past the Red Line...no faith in Tosi? or their back-up THs.

With Surf Features having a bazillion assistant coaches for no apparent reason and even less discernible value, I resorted to Google to double check that Scott Hansen is allegedly the Defence Coach of the All Blacks.
Is it policy that AB's Defence coaches now have to have the first name Scott? And why is the new bloke as useless as McLeod?
Pretty much every time the Australians were hot on attack in our 22, it just seemed we were going to eventually fold and wave them through.
