A good performance according to Jeff Wilson and Mils.
One amateur era player and the guy who got replaced by Dagg cause he can't catch a high ball? Lucky we have those two rugby geniuses on our TVs
Some serious revisionist bullshit going on here. Mils was gobbling Up the highball in 2010. He was injured for most of 2011 and Dagg’s attacking play was irresistible.
did we lose then? Reads like the death of rugby not just the All Blacks. Or has everyone's cat died?

Happy to kill cats for those who haven't had one pass.
@nostrildamus if I was watching as a neutral probably would've enjoyed myself as Clarke, Rogers, Rees-Zammit & Sititi put on a show

Ruben Love did well enough at Fullback. I hope he gets more outings there.
Nice injections into the line on attack, but Jordan would be eviscerated for the charged down kick and shelling of a few catches.
Think Love is getting "new guy" leeway.
I thought he was taken off too early did the selectors really need to see more of Sevu?
Love is fresh could have stayed on... hate pre planned subs

The Razor era has so far been a giant missed opportunity

Absolutely.
Goldie and Mils were both sensational players. Insult their punditry all you want but never forget how they went in the Black jersey.
I'm actually genuinely offended on their behalf.

So true watched Wilson play live and was amazing how fast and athletic he was,,, its a common theme with players who turn commentators people either forget or are too young to appreciate just how good they were. Both Wilson and MIls have good games and bad when commentating,,, remember the hate Mex got and Stu
@cgrant said in Wales v All Blacks:
Once Ratima decided not to kick and instead pass the pill, the All Blacks played better. His kicks were awful and put the ABs under pressure. Overall, not a bad game from the starting backs from 10 to 15.
Ratimas box kicks were shite for any level - just should be better, I think he could be way better and has been way better- looks confused and lacking confidence and that most likely stems from the coaches

They didn't just call him Goldie because of his hair. One of the most instinctive rugby players I ever saw
I watched most of it , struggled a bit through tiredness and went back to bed when the result looked secure ,
Gee we seem to easily leak points these days , that was probably the thing that stood out strongest for me

We don't dictate and control the play anymore. Other teams impose their will on us

@Dan54 yeah I really doubt my leg is being pulled, my mate has given me other rugby info ahead of time such as Ngani Laumape to Moana, Kyle Brown to the Chiefs and Flyn yates to the blues. beats me why Hansen doesn't rate Ruben, he would be in my 1st choice 23 Dan. 50 minutes today was his lot this Tour sigh well that's life I guess
Don't listen to them mate. Nice of you to share what you get told.
@brodean said in Wales v All Blacks:
I would have really liked to have seen Love get a run at 10. What are they afraid of?
Thats RM jersey and BB is keepng it mediocre until he is available= no point anyone being allowed the opportunity to shine and make the changeover more complex
@hikastags said in Wales v All Blacks:
Letting this dogshit Welsh side score 4 tries is embarrassing. They wouldn't even beat the Highlanders.
Yeah hard to disagree. They lack on the physical side of the game to be really competitive at present. The game itself felt like a mid table Super Rugby fixture, with the AB defence awful on the outsides. So many players out their, for all their positive play, have so many bad habits in their games.

25 minutes to go with the game well won and they could have moved him to 10 but instead they take him off for Reece.
