This French side look more dangerous than the top side. Why would they take 3 hot on attack with 5 minutes left. If you want to beat the Abs they need tries. 15-14 to France.

[Stargazer]

Strange that the ABs get a warning after several French players were offside trying to take players out who were defending that maul.

[Stargazer]

TKB is playing very well.

[Hooroo]

Nice to see the french have rolled out the Local Pubs front rower. It's a novelty now to see a classic fat prop. Up the Guts Brother!!

Yeah it’s a dam shame he is leaving, clearly the more reliable deputy to Smith, shame he got injured and hasn’t had more opportunity.

[nostrildamus]

I will miss TKB especially his tackling.

[Hooroo]

Goodhue knows how to Tackle!

[nostrildamus]

I squirmed when I saw the starting lineup. Not got much confidence but the bench is interesting. Risky but interesting.

[Stargazer]

Can't wait for Aumua to do his thing in the 2nd half. Unleash him!

[nostrildamus]

Harris is on track to be my hatiest AB.

[Stargazer]

Oops, that was not so good from TKB. Forward pass. Half time: France 15 - 14 ABs

[chimoaus]

first half over, not a bad half from both sides. Abs just lacking polish with poor passing and some missed tackles.

Was Sopoaga not TKB that ended the first half with a forward pass

[KiwiMurph]

Entertaining game - well reffed.

Goodhue the standout imo - looks born to play 13.

Tkb and squire also strong.

Laumape with two poor cutout passes - needs to shelve that.

[kiwiinmelb]

Second half will be interesting,

I think we will run away with it if we get our share of possession ,

But won't see it , heading off to work , have to watch a replay later

[chimoaus]

Whitelock and Tamanivalu pick of first half for mine. TKB also very solid.

I think he was referring to the pass from the scrum that went behind the backline.

Bit of justice though..
After TKB's wild pass, he threw a forward pass which was basically the same as Sopoaga's but wasn't called

[Stargazer]

Whitelock playing and leading the squad well. TKB, Tamanivalu and Bird going well, too. But can't wait for a few of the reserves come on, particularly Aumua. Also, interested to see what Mo'unga can bring to this game.

[pakman]

@chimoaus Seta made a defensive boohoo for first French try. Second stringers standing up well to big French pack. Squire looking tasty.
