NZ vs. Aust - Japanese yawn edition

[No Quarter]

If this is a world cup ground, I hope they are going to sort out the surface before next year.

Soccer fields tend to be a lot softer so not suited for rugby. Not sure what they can do but it's less than ideal.

Kick the fucking ball out FFS

This team should stay in town and play Japan next week.They’ve had a nice training run like intensity tonight.

Defence is casual as fuck.

@donsteppa

A lot of it is numbers - the Aussie’s often stack them around the ruck and we just have one - if they can offload, they are behind us....

@donsteppa Seems like the Hurricanes players are the only ones with any intensity on defence

[mariner4life]

Would someone like to make a hit. Passive bullshit.

Aussies feeding off our passive defense. Some nice offloads and pops. We're making Rob Simmons look good for fucks sake! He's the best lock on the field

Moody, Franks and Whitelock off, Tuinukuafe, Laulala and Brodie on.

[Donsteppa]

Ah excellent. Some forwards being subbed on who might do something beyond cruising.

[Steven Harris]

@stargazer I was just thinking it was time to go to the bench..

[Tim]

Looking forward to seeing Laulala in action. Was in excellent form before injury.

Does anyone else hate hearing Robbie Deans?

[antipodean]

Is the Japanese director drunk?

[Donsteppa]

Savea wins a penalty turnover. Another energetic game from him.

[akan004]

[Tim]
