@nzzp
Beauden Barrett 8: Off his game early, but two tries showed his class in second half as came back from head assessment. Made plenty of tackles too. Not quite back to his vintage 2016 form, but a big step in the right directioncheers - was watching while exercising, and Lima must have been on for the head knock
I'm not going mad - it was Lima on all game in 10.http://www.allblacks.com/News/31624/all-blacks-team-named-for-final-test-against-australia
also - wayne barnes was refereeing. Wallabies played well, chanced their arm and overcame some horrible handling from Beale to get the win. Well done those lads
Also, had Scott Barrett playing and not looking particularly physical. Fark I love me some BBBR

@nzzp you said Dunners earlier (2nd Bledisloe 2017) but now are talking about Brisbane (3rd Bledisloe 2017).
@nzzp said in Bledisloe I:

Was listening to some guy preview the rugby on Macquarie sports radio ( new aus radio station ) and according to him , Australia might have the edge in the backs ,
Not looking good for us then .
It's too quiet. The lack of pre-match spittle from the Wallaby camp is making me nervous.

The thing is, there isn't much between the teams at the top level. They are a good side, and have been improving over the last few years. Tight 5 look good. ALways a starters chance, and if they win tomorrow, the rematch at Eden Pork will be sensational.
I'm really looking forward to it; should be a great game of footy.

It is Aussie radio, you'd hope they have hope!
@nzzp I had a look through the refs last year, I think Barnes is one of a couple of top refs (all NH) that we've lost more than we've won under. That WR conspiracy to have ABs top is going well.
-
John Hart interviewed (from 9.30) - always worth listening to. Talking up the Aussies - reckons they'll be competitive, though we will win. Says we shouldn't underestimate them.

Notes Read is light years ahead of any other NZ No. 8 - think Akira is No. 2.
Agrees with me on Goodhue - thinks he'll be the incumbent centre by RWC, with SBW and Crotty fighting it out for the 2nd five spot. Didn't mention ALB... @mariner4life you might need to retrieve your toys so you can throw them again.
Thought they would have gone with BSmith and Jordie.
Expecting Beauden to have a big game.

The really irritating thing is that for most of a game, Wayne-o refs really well. It's just a few things that seem to have no 'feel' for the game, or random ticky-tack calls against the run of play.
Ah well, he's going to ref us at Eden Park. Where last time he coughed up a crappy forward pass call at the end of the game. We better play well
-
@chris-b what the actual fuck does John Hart know about the midfield?
-
@chris-b Yeah I listened to that on the way home, always speaks pretty well and doesnt try to gloss it too much.
@mariner4life he knows you dont play a 15 at 13...now
-
@mariner4life A fair point.

he shouldn't have had to know anything about that. Any combination of Wilson, Cullen, Lomu, Osbourne and Tana should have murdered pretty much anyone

The guy is a ticking time bomb and I would not be too upset if he pulled his hammy stepping out of the shower before the game

Yeah - Harty had long booted him to touch.
The name M4L is missing is Frank Bunce! To quote John "the obvious centre...".

Wasn't Osbourne at the 99 world cup?
Bunce is a midfielder. Hart inherited him.
This argument is going around in circles, make your positions clear so i can berate you for idiocy more easily

Tana is hugely over rated
