Japan vs All Blacks

[Davesofthunder]

Jeez, I don't think much of this ref.

Also, why are we throwing it so loose when playing good quality phases would build pressure and shit them out far more effectively. Lacking patience.

[KiwiMurph]

Poor from Papalii. Far too easily stepped.

[Stockcar86]

Jordie becoming the Adam Whitelock of the Barrett family

[Stargazer]

Who's the ref?

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Stupid loose play but that was a knock on from the Japanese player and how tf didn't that go to the TMO. It's like different rules apply in Japan.

[Machpants]

Refs utter shite on both their tries

But all down to two stupid Jordie no look back passes, fucking idiot

[Higgins]

Yet another utter mysterious ruling sees a try that was clearly forced against Patrick Tuipolotu's chest awarded miles after the tackled player should have released it.

[Stargazer]

So now they go to the TMO?????

[Tim]

@kiwimurph New boy learned a lesson. Was committed to drifting.

[sparky]

All Blacks leeking points again. What is the point of Scott McLeod?

[taniwharugby]

@stargazer Wayne Barnes cousin

[No Quarter]

Haha they go to the TMO to try and find a reason to not award it now. Refs are in damage control on Japan's behalf.

Jordie’s confidence is absolutely shot. Everything he’s trying is not coming off. Last game in black surely.

He's on the main tour so he'll play another test at least.

If that’s the standard needed for Jordie’s selection, @Crucial should also grab his boots given he lives vaguely in the vicinity of the tour.

[Machpants]

Ref is just so bad, awful

[Davesofthunder]

Bloody he'll, he is after the TMO now.

This guy is bloody inconsistent, it is frustrating.

Maybe Gosper had a word with him before the game...

[Toddy]

Has Fifita made a tackle yet? Makes no yards, can't get his timing around the rucks right.... Doesn't look international quality.

Great play by Dalton P.

They are playing as if there is a mandate to push the pace wherever possible and make superior conditioning a factor in the second half. Points are on the table if they just take it down a gear.

[taniwharugby]

@toddy er he doesn't do rucks and stuff

[Machpants]

Lots of errors lots of tries, I wisely predicted. But fuck me I didn't predict Jordie would be the root cause of all Japan's points
