    <p>Kurt Baker being handed the captaincy is interesting, although aside from Kaka, the cupboard probably bare when looking for a captain form that lot?</p>

    <p>Good game by team Vs portugal, very physical and good on attack. Scrums were poor though!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Is anyone else watching the sevens?</p>

    <p>Must admit that I totally forgot about the sevens!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Results thus far:</p>
    <p>NZ 35 - 10 Russia</p>
    <p>NZ 31 - 0 Portugal</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>This is a hilarious tweet with video from the game: <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='

    '>
    </a></p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Next game v Kenya, at 00:03am (NZT).</p>

    <p>NZ started playing better when Kaka and Ware came on. Don't know why Titch started the game without any playmakers in the team.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Great play from Kaka there at the end. First a try saving tackle, then a quick tap penalty, scoring the try under the post and converting the try.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Final score: NZ 19 - 17 Kenya.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>NZ finish first of their pool.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Edit: that try from Rieko Ioane was awesome!</p>
