All Blacks vs Pumas I
-
@delicatessen He won the penalty to get us downfield to score that last try, and imo, has been fantastic on D, in tandem with Ioane, Jacobsen and Retallick.

@bones pretty sure those were his only off throws. A work on yes but he’s been superb everywhere else.

Great performance so far.
Some really average headless chook stuff during the half tho
From who? Sure a couple of dumb penalties but that happens all the time.
I reckon we’ve played pretty safe. We’ve made some good little runs off to get over the gain line but we have hardly thrown an offload or 50/50 ball.
A few times we weren’t on the same page but that’s more lack of experience and combinations.
I think we’ve done okay.

Karl with headgear moves and looks just like Andrew Hore for some reason
With a pig in his back?
They're pumas not seals
-
@machpants and that's why we aren't up 40 nil, thiwr defence,but that last quarter could be ugly
-
Good half overall. A few errors when we tried to open them up but when that didn't work we've reverted to grinding them down by dominating possession and making them tackle all day.
Argie have not brought much at all.

Plummer deserves some credit for the way the forwards are going. I thought oneof the problems between 2017-2019 was having no real forwards coach. Stu Cron was a scrum guru but .....

Early change of kicker
Brotherly challenge. "you miss, I take over"
Hope so. Might see Scott take over after the 8th try

Maybe headless chook wrong phrase. Just seem to lack incisive decision sometimes on attack, shoveling it on. Running sideways and backwards. Add to that some real howlers in line out and real pointless penalties.

No, there have been others. One dropped before Akira, he needs to improve his throwing. Looks great in the field.

@old-samurai-jack Yep forwards this year bar test vs Fiji have been very good. BBBR getting back to form helps and this loose forward mix also.

Kremer 18 tackles already! Heaps of puma in the teens
Three times as many tackles as the ABs so not surprising
