If we win Bled 2, are you happy heading into the end of year tour?

I didn't realize Havili was so good he could play 2 positions off the bench
All Blacks: 1 Ethan de Groot 2 Codie Taylor 3 Tyrel Lomax 4 Scott Barrett (c) 5 Tupou Vaa'i 6 Wallace Sititi 7 Sam Cane 8 Ardie Savea 9 TJ Perenara 10 Beauden Barrett 11 Caleb Clarke 12 Anton Lienert-Brown 13 Rieko Ioane 14 Sevu Reece 15 Will Jordan
All Blacks v Australia: Has Robertson missed an opportunity?
Change is evident in the All Blacks, but Scott Robertson could have pulled the trigger on at least a couple of players this weekend, writes Jamie Wall.
Bench: 16 Asafo Aumua 17 Tamaiti Williams 18 Pasilio Tosi 19 Patrick Tuipulotu 20 Luke Jacobson 21 Cortez Ratima 22 David Havili 23 David Havili
I do think they could have had Proctor on the bench and moved Rieko to the wing (14) later in the game-he looks dangerous on the wing late in the game.. Really in an emergency Proctor could cover 12.

But am I happy heading into the end of the year? No, I really think they could have been more polished and spend more time on learning NH referee interpretations!

Surely beating a team ranked tenth in the world at home is expected, not a cause for celebration?
That’s the English mindset when they play Wales and Scotland
We’ve seen the wheels come off the chariot far too many times for NZ to consider this a gimme

Dude what the fuck ?
The English are Scotlands bitches at the moment, especially when Duhan De Merwe runs wild.
Don’t try and drag the prood Scots ( still ranked 7th ) down with your crap lot

Scotland have been good latterly but had a run of over a decade when they couldn’t buy a win

Scotland and Wales won't be too happy going into the end of the year, this year would have been a golden opportunity for them to beat us.

Close to two decades to be fair. Thank god Italy showed up to make them look better in the 6N ( sometimes )

Roigard will be back, presumably in place of Perenara
Suspect TJ goes at the expense of Noah. But who knows
The AB XV is same region when tests played so argument for giving Hotham and Bell game time there, and can always be called across if there’s an injury.

It's an embarrassing state of affairs where playing a team ranked tenth isn't an opportunity for wholesale changes.

They’d have beaten the All Blacks by now if they actually played them more regularly. Look at what Argentina have managed.
But the last time they toured NZ I was 23 years old.
Wales might emulate 1953 if they play a bit more too

We only just held off the 10th ranked side last week, and we're not 100% sure if we are going to beat them this weekend.

@ploughboy said in All Blacks vs Wallabies 2:
I'd give a C
should do betterD, loss to arg, not enough growth of future players, and 0-50 in the time traditional AB teams dominates and win.

C+
18 months ago we didn't have a front row / scrum. Now we do. That's huge.
Vaai is sorting out the lineout.
