Jordie is playing strong and creating space for us.
Brilliant hands across the board.

Our backline looks so much better tonight. Amazing what happens when you don’t kick the ball away.

That’s the ABs we know. Amazing try.
Because we are finding the extra half yards. Weak shoulders etc.
It looks like we are playing blistering rugby, but it’s like likes of Parker and Carter not dying with the ball, cutting back in, keeping their cover D and fatties back pedalling.

Wow..don't kick the ball away..and turns out you can still use the ball and beat the man, even with today's modern defense.
Only took 6 years to figure it out.
And every back doesn’t need to touch the ball before it gets to the wing.
The miss pass has been rediscovered.
That's twice Kolbe has gone high in the tackle. Basically deliberate if you're such a small fluffybunny.
That Reinach lad was getting lippy last week too.
Vaai firmly getting a reputation as a bit of an Itoje in the ruck clapping stakes.

Not used to defending someone of a similar height.
Shame about the intercept but the interplay looked very good until that point. Just a big play from a big player.
