Bledisloe One: Wellington, October 11

[Tim]

@Kirwan Exactly

[Yeetyaah]

Lmao Blues fans defending Rieko. His defence has been average and that was a huge mistake at this level.

Agree with everything about Rieko but there was downward pressure whether a finger tip or not. Just had to look at how the ball bounced up off the turf.

If you carry the ball you need control. You only need to ground a loose ball with downward pressure.

I told Reiko about 2 years ago, on thus very site, he'll get burned one day if he keeps grounding the ball like that.

No excuse for not reading it.

Bullshit decision, though.

Amusing watching people get stuck in, almost like they have been waiting for an opportunity!

He’s playing well, won’t do that again.

Deserves people to get stuck into him for that!

Doesn’t mean he isn’t playing well.

[gt12]

@Kirwan

He’s missed a couple of tackles - especially when Oz have gone down the left, he and Bridge haven’t done so well (Bridge also has two misses).

[Stag]

Reiko needs to be benched, actions like that need immediate consequences, simply not even close to good enough

So.
DMac good.
Bridge waste of space.
Reiko good (but lost all brownie points at the end)
Cane massive.
Ardie OK but not a great presence.
PT drifting in and out of the game.
Frizzel a bit the same.

Cane, Ardie and Whitelock have all been very good.

Given possession and territory stats, Frizell has done is role well and tackled what was needed.

[family man]

@Tim and the foot in touch leading to the jordie try which luckily was missed by Angus gardener

[Chris]

Not impressed by Fosters ABs technically it should be 3-3
We are creating Fuck all except from a bit of broken play running.
Will not beat the Boks or England with this stuff

[mariner4life]

Not impressed with savea at 8. He's not adding much. Overall the pack has been okay without being outstanding.

The skipper has been pretty fucking good though.

[taniwharugby]

@broughie yea didn't look like any separation, meaning technically a try, but rookie error at any rate

[Crucial]

Yeah, no clear separation unless they were looking at a different frame rate to us.
Once again Marshall prattles on about control when it isn’t the law

[Yeetyaah]

@mariner4life don't put that on Facebook

[Tim]

@family-man Like when Barrett ran straight out early on?

I was about to post Before the decision how I like his running game in midfield , adds a different dimension to our attack

[African Monkey]

@mariner4life They've targetted Bridge knowing that he's a rubbish defender.

Cullen did that once and certainly learnt his lesson haha

[KiwiMurph]

Cane showing test rugby is a different beast

[broughie]

@mariner4life That’s the problem. He’s not an eight yet Foster has put him there.

[chimoaus]

Who kicked that penalty dead?
