All Blacks vs Boks

The best thing about BBBR scoring tries is that look of pure unadulterated joy on such a huge scary head.

Yes it is like Jaws playing Forrest Gump, getting a puppy for Christmas.

What a Farking ridiculous half of rugby...for 30 or so mins we are 7 shades of shit yet we are up 31-0....what.the.fuck.seriously

No Quarter

31-0 at the break, similar to what we did to Aussie in the first Bledisloe. When we're hot we're hot alright, what a fucking hiding so far.

Now, let's put 80 minutes together please.

Tim

SBW has had a bloody good game so far. Very strong and direct taking it up.

Mokey

That last passage of play annoyed me. Boks might have scored, because we got cutesy instead of kicking out after the siren. But all in all, a great half.

Tim

@Mokey yep, absolutely too cute.

Kruse

@Mokey I'm sure somebody will claim that it was deliberate, we're practicing defence for 2019.

There is only 40 mins left!

31-0 at halftime against the Boks and some of you are grumpy? Gee even Marc "not renown for his apologies" Hinton looks sweet-natured by comparison.

Tordah

Hames seemed very, very nervoua at the start, look at the first scrum-setup. Missed a few tackles and conceded some penalties, not good, but he can only get better (or be replaced). Springboks unlucky to be that far behind. They're not playing well, but not 30 points worse. Maybe 10 or 15 points.
I love Sam Cane

booboo

Gee Nige is a good ref

Tim

@booboo Not one complaint so far, I think?

Rebound

@taniwharugby
How is number 5 still on the field. That's worse than Sonny Bill's shoulder

Yes, he's been excellent so far, don't recall a single mistake, no unnecessary TMO crap and good communication.

Chris B.

@Tim said in All Blacks vs Boks:

Hames gave away the penalty there for the clean out. Again.

Most penalised player in Super Rugby, so it's obvious that he lacks the accuracy for test rugby.

Yeah - let's get Sam Prattley in there!

Haha. George is probably pissed at his lack of airtime so far.

Interesting isn't it. He has only done the one off load and that was after in contact versus his normal offload every time. SBW being prepared to take contact has meant BB has been able to loop around more and looking to be the overlap I think.

Tim

@Chris-B. Yep, that Ta$man player is the only other option.

There's a few good loosehead props around (two from Canterbury, one from Taranaki) that aren't the most penalised players in Super Rugby.

He's massively out of his depth.

Rancid Schnitzel

This is what happens when they get the execution right. Forget that bullshit talk about putting on pressure or creating opportunities, theyve been doing that all season, they've just spilled the pill too much. They hold onto it, teams get raped.

Now more of the same this half please.
