Dumb...so pointless, Gatland was never gonna stop it

Need to chill a bit, trying to rush things

Poos

Bad miss by Olsen

A few of our subs not stepping up unfortunately

Ffs...

As i said at half time, handling and options were poor...theynhave cost us the game: Goodhue with that pull, Hape going on a 2m blidside, then about 4 handling errors the lastb5.mins
-
Just lack of composure

what an odd game....plenty to like about our play, but more to dislike.
Several players made hugely costly errors, none moreso than Goodhue, who had played pretty well until that pull on Gatlands jersey, potentially cost the game, but at least a BP.
Many players had patches of good, but also patches of less good...Milo-Harris, played well for most of his time, but made a couple of costly errors, but then his replacement made a poor decision to take a 2m blind that was picked off and NH almost went 80m...our defence in patches was not good enough, highlighted in the last quarter, I'd put alot onto fatigue, as it was a pretty fast game.
Trainor was handy, although he hobbled off, so hope it isnt anything bad, liked Letoga, made some good metres in contact and post contact, blip being penalised when he released his grip in the maul.
Matich probably pick of our loosies, good to see a stable scrum too, our ruck protection in the 1st half and handling throughout was very costly.
Must be said, that is a bloody good NH side, that pack is pretty big, lead from the front by Suafua.
edit - thought the ref was pretty good, well, consistent in what he let both sides away with.
