NZ vs. Aust - Japanese yawn edition

We'll take that.
Felt score was kind of flattering to Aus.

Pretty uninteresting game. We did enough to win without really getting out of 1st gear. Beauden's try the stand-out moment in the match. Not much else to talk about other than the midfield which is past it and unlikely to see us through to the RWC.

ALB that was terrible
That spoils your plans tonight. Who else you going to bat over now?

I'll look at the positives:
- scrums were very good, nice return for Laulala
- SBW was so bad that finally even the selectors who love him for some reason must have seen it
- Barrett's place kicking was good
- Barrett's running game still up there
- Retallick got through unharmed
- Ben Smith still as reliable as ever

Phil Kearns is frustrated at the free ride Nz get from referees

I'm guessing he doesn't bother watching anymore and just goes to item #3 on his post match check list.

@antipodean Even Green and Gold Rugby gave that up a few years ago.
