@Jet We were heading for a comfortable win before the Ratima intercept. Then we shut down after that with England (who are 5th in the world) in front of their fans pumped up and full of momentum for the next 20 mins.
And we still brought it back and clutched (reminiscent of the old ABs).
We were comfortably the better team (albeit while playing horrible rugby with BB at 10 directing).
We looked much more dangerous immediately with Roigard/Dmac on and BB/Jordie off.
My standards are higher than this.
It wasn’t good enough.

Back down to 80

How the fuck did England lose that?
Because on the whole, we were better.
3 tries (created) to one (stolen).
England had about 25mins on top.
We had the rest.
Those giving it the "we are useless" were also saying we did not have the ability, the mental fortitude to come back. Well guess what? We did.
Needed two scores. We got them.
Needed to disrupt a dg attempt. Reserve scrum stands up.
Completely different if that dg goes over... but it didn’t.
Much, much to work on. Intelligence would be the first. But let's take the win.
One hundy. No it wasn't perfect but everything these RazorH8ers have been saying we need to do to win, we did.
By accident rather than design.
This wasn’t Nonu putting Dagg into the corner in Soweto.
This was us fluking a win by a rizla paper.
Guys come on.
England lost that. We didn’t win it.
Oh fuck off. Go watch the Kiwis. They just beat England at Twickenham, 3 tries to an intercept, bench added impact, we outscored them in the last 15 mins.

Or maybe they took that big step forward by winning the game in the last 15 minutes.
We won against England in the last 15 minutes in Robertson's first game. Now getting back to that level is a big step forward? Some progress eh?
That said, it was a plus compared to the 2nd half clueless drivel that Robertson and his team have served up so far this year..

How good was Tosi
Did you see that rocket of a clean out. The Real Weapon!
Give the young hungry boys a chance.
Beaudy has moved To Auckland , Yoko Ono’d himself with Hannah Laity and now he is sleeping in silk pyjamas.
He’s Done.

@LatsToTheMax Yeap, the debbie-downers will never stop.
I heard from them before this tour we would lose all 3 of these fixtures.

I come in peace Lats, no personal animous from my side.
But I’m fucking frothing over what I saw today.
The team is clueless.
Tell me what we were at out there?
Does Beaudy keep his place? Does DMAC come in?
How do we assess what we seen?
My contention is we won in spite of ourselves.
This is the fucking Allblacks mate….
Let’s have some parliamentary procedure here as Chris Eubank would say.

Change your name to Captain "Fozzy Fanboi" Miserable. We just won a test at Twickenham. Have been harping on all season that we can't score in the last 20.

On paper you’ve got your win, but England had a kick to win with 90 seconds on the clock and bottled it.
Let’s get real here.
England weren't even close if Smith doesn't intercept.

I'm a bit more positive than that. We might have stopped some of the decline and be back on track to get a team as good as the one that beat England 2-0

We were dominating until the intercept. They didn't once look like scoring a try.
NZ in 2013 were losing to Ireland in the 80th minute before stealing it.
Did that win have an asterisk next to it??
I didn't realize we're talking about 'what ifs' now.
We won.

We might have a bit of an injury / forced out ward heading into next weekend.

Bit scary.
