-
- Tackle<br>
- Hold ball<br><br>
Do that and we win going away.<br><br>
Otherwise ... leave them close and they believe ...

<p>Lucky NZ score so many points that they don't need a reliable goalkicker...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Wales have been very impressive, but some of the NZ defence is woeful.</p>

<p><strong>Cane is absolutely not McCaw - he is really being missed :(</strong></p>

<p>Captaincy or playing? He's been getting through a shit tonne of work and that dive to secure the ball was almost a carbon copy of McCaw.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I hope Barrett comes on early, Naholo is compounding his poor play by looking disinterested and lazy.</p> -

<p>He is tackling like a demon and has very handy at the breakdown. If he doesn't top the tackle count after 80 I will be shocked (Savea surely replaces Kaino).</p> -

It didn't take you long kiwi....<br><br>
I hope people are patient -

Cane? He is the least of our problems! -
<p>Cane is doing very well.</p>
<p>Jeez the problems are elsewhere</p> -

-
Yeah I think Cane has been strong. Not winning TO ball but making his tackles. <br><br>
Good sub this -
Fekitoa done anything on offence tonight?
-
A bit telegraphed that cross kick
-
Naholo on the left , it could be a sign , that he and savea may end up competing for the same spot , similar types ,<br><br>usually we work best with a fb hybrid type on the other
-
Larkham-esque ghosting by Cruden there.
-
Better interplay by the forwards to make some good metres.
-
<p>This is one of the things that show AB selectors clearly understand rugby much MUCH better than me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think BB is faster than B Smith.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If that is the case, why does BB replace B Smith at Full Back, and not the right wing? If BB is a better full back than Smith, why not start him?</p> -

<p>Little has come his way, it seems most of the decent ball funnelled to the backline is all about putting Naholo in space. Cruden has been kicking out of hand more than normal too.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cruden playing real well actually.</p> -
Kinda the point, he needs to look for some work and get involved
