Fucking disgrace. I thought it couldn't get any worse than last weeks deciding penalty but that was a complete farce.
Fully expect WR to stay completely silent.
You make a good point re: last week I don't know why the set piece off the lineout wasn't Dagg jumping into the defensive line?

Read and Warburton should have an arm wrestle to settle it.

I think it's fair to say , we are not quite there yet ,
Not with that team anyway

Has anybody ever seen a referee change his mind about a penalty from a non foul related incident? First time in history I reckon.

BB would have missed that penalty kick anyway.

Fuck I want to slap that smirk off Gatlands face
-
@kiwiinmelb Yeah. The first 20 of the 2nd half definitely showed that.

I don't see what was wrong with the selection. Smith may have been cleared off concussion, but had 3 head knocks already and still has a long time to go this season. Crotty also not back from injury, yet. Coles same same. SBW suspended.
Ioane didn't give any reason last week that he would have done better than Julian Savea. Savea had a great first half. Fekitoa didn't show anything that warranted a start tonight.
There's only one big question for me: why did they persist with BB kicking for goal?
Apart from that, it seemed to me that the ABs, esp. the young ones, were a bit nervous, over-excited etc, which led to too many handling errors.
And that decision from Poite, if he had awarded a penalty, we might have won. Or not. We don't know whether BB would have slotted that penalty, but at least, we would have had a chance.

I have to admire the class of you people here, I mean I have zero emotional attachment to the All Blacks and was going absolutely bonkers on that accidental offside.
Then to come here and find out people are acting in a civil manner. Hats off
You should be in my lounge room, nothing fucking civil about it!!!!

@Stargazer Oh bullshit. Savea bombed several tries because he can't even catch the ball. Ioane is a brilliant finisher and has express speed. He would've nailed those tries as he nailed his opportunities in the 1st test and for the Blues vs the Lions. He's a more accurate defensive player too.
