Strange that with all the dominance the All Blacks still look so laboured, hard to just not go through the motions I suppose

Yeah, it's noticeable how contact in the narrower channels tends to end on our side of the advantage line.

Wil Jordan ran 133 metres with the ball in that half. George Bridge ran 18 metres with the ball.

@victor-meldrew Played a massive part in the first try.

Cringe flag in the crowd

The half and half one? I don’t mind it.

@crucial yeah haha I hate it

Quinn Tupea had a fantastic first half.

Even Owen Franks might have scored in this one.

Or Bridge might even beat a defender?

Has he touched the ball?

In the first 30 seconds he did.

Better than the “we are a British colony “ one.

Luke Jacobson scored more tries than Sotutu, Cane and Papalii put together.

That was a bit of magic from DMac

@sparky tbf the ball hasn't really gone his way

Or he hasn’t put himself in the right places? A few times the ball has gone his side and Jordan was over there.

@crucial eh but treaty partnership and whatnot. Not the thread for it.

@crucial out of the loop but I guess this is a big issue.

I think if Augsberger had gone lower he might have got him

Game is tailor made for DMac. No structure and weak tackling.

Would prefer they had some structure, Mounga playing 7s/touch style attack at times

Getting very messy now.

I’d like to see ALB sub on and move Ennor to the left wing
