Pollock tits on a bull
Both teams deserve to lose.
No game management at all.
You cant concede 45 points and expect to win a match.

Rassie's teams can.
One of the greatest rugby games of all time.
Epic stuff and the game was in the balance until the last moment.
Yes. I really didn't want a England win as it would be a win for two teams I dislike.
Basketball rugby, I'm surprised Stephen Jones hasn't dropped dead so he can roll over in his grave at that scoreline.
A game of that drama did not deserve that jersey clash.
Not sure I ever could do a re-watch. It was tedious enough on the eyes.

48-46.
94 points. Crazy stuff.

Clearly powderpuff rugby where defence is optional with a score like that.

Well at least we didn't have to suffer Ireland winning the 6N
They could have ... tried?
France are a basket case.
Dupont's reputation is doing some heavy lifting for his game management skills.
You cant be conceding 46 points at home.

Yeah but a team featuring Dupont won and he's a fuckhead.
It's not exactly great either way.
Need to get Tangitau into the Allblacks sharpish.
Speed on the wing makes some difference. It stretches the field laterally. The defence cant cheat.
It was too easy for teams to deal with Reece, later day Rieko, Telea and even Clarke to an extent. They knew they wouldnt be gassed.

Reiko has pace and some power, Telea is slippery as an eel and Clarke has power and deceptive pace.
Agree on all counts with Reece though.
