AB Test Team v France.

[Sapetyvi]

Yeah, if you go for the card there, not really much more options than go for the PT now is there?
Just fucking stupid by SBW.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

In the end he did something illegal to prevent a try. Can't really argue with that.

[Gunner]

That is a terrible call. Disgraceful officiating.

Ridiculous. "I think the French player would have caught the ball if the 12 hadn't slapped the ball".

Gardiner got that wrong. Still SBW should've caught it the idiot.

[westcoastie]

Why take Read off? is Foster running the subs?

[Stargazer]

Did Read get off because of an injury?

[Higgins]

It's almost as if an Indian bookmaker has made a couple of phone calls in the half time interval.

I’m thinking it’s because the All Blacks coaches increasing like fucking around and not taking games seriously except for once every four years.

Go read the rules. His YC offence means he must be taken out of the picture. Without SBW that is an unmarked catch and score for the French player.

Next 10 minutes might be as testing as this game gets for the AB's... hopefully French come out firing, they haven't had a lot of possession...

Didn't expect it to be testing like this...has an Indian bookie infiltrated our national team?

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Goddammit Beauden. Fuck did these guys share a joint at half time?

[westcoastie]

Yellow card for DMac for that surely? was that French back going to score then?

[kiwiinmelb]

This is what I was getting at earlier about an 80 minute performance,

It's been our Achilles heel this year

[Derm McCrum]

Jeez these two commentators are a pair of fuckwits. It’s like listening to two know-it-alls in the pub who won’t fucking shut up and watch the match.

[Gunner]

Gardner said in the first half something like ‘I don’t want to be the central figure in this game’

Who the fuck are you trying to fool, dickhead!

[Crucial]

Fair call IMO. Take SBW out of the equation and it is a probable try.
Can someone confirm if that is legal in league? It looked instinctive to me.

[Donsteppa]

Oh look, SBW sitting on the sideline watching the opposition get back into a game again.

[chimoaus]

I don’t think it was a deliberate foul by SBW, it was just a brain explosion. Had he attempted to catch it I don’t think the French would have scored.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

They have a man advantage and they take the 3?

[MiketheSnow]

The English twat sounds like a Cardiff or Newport boy now.

Name?
