@Daffy-Jaffy Can you, please, hide these scores with the spoiler function? Not all of us will be able to watch all games live and like to watch them later without having seen the score. Thx.

[Daffy Jaffy]

@Stargazer Sorry I don't know what that is, please explain how.

[Stargazer]

@Daffy-Jaffy It's a symbol that looks like an eye.

[Stargazer]

First scrum went well. Against players who have Top 14 experience.

[Stargazer]

Good defence against the first Georgian driving maul.

[Stargazer]

Penalty conceded when defending against the second driving maul.
Georgia's experienced 10 scores the first points.

0 - 3 Georgia

[Stargazer]

That was a bs penalty. No way that was a shoulder charge from Nanai-Seturo.

[Stargazer]

Oh God, the TMO is now calling the ref to look at possible faul play (the same tackle from N-S). There's really nothing in it.

[Stargazer]

This is absolutely insane. The TMO suggests a yellow card, and the ref gives it. Totally bs.

[Stargazer]

I don't know if you heard it, but the TMO said that - because "there was a mitigating factor, it was only a yellow". So the starting point was red!

[Stargazer]

Great try from Plumtree. First real attack leads to a try. Good ball handling. Well done, with a man in the bin.

Reihana converts the try: 7 - 3 NZ

[Stargazer]

That looked great. Great attack with good skills. Herbert dotted down in the corner, diving like a wing. TMO checks it. F*ck, how long does that have to take. Finally, it's awarded.

This TMO, who is he and where's he from?

Reihana's conversion attempt misses.

12 - 3 NZ

[Stargazer]

Great steal from Finau, but then penalised for holding on.

[Stargazer]

Awesome defence on our line. Really good and disciplined.

[Stargazer]

Ref awards a penalty to Georgia on the advice of the TMO. No idea what for.

They go for the kick and it's good.

12 - 6 NZ

[Stargazer]

Possession: NZ 52 %.
Handling errors: NZ 3, Georgia 2

[Stargazer]

Try Mcleod! NZ showing a lot of patience; not rushing their attack.

Reihana converts the try.

19 - 6 NZ

[Stargazer]

Phew. That was almost a try to Georgia. Fainga'anuku's ankle tap is the try saver.

[Stargazer]

HT: NZ 19 - 6 Georgia (3 tries to nil)

Kereru-Symes and Newell good in the frontrow; Finau and Flanders excellent in the backrow.
No reall stand-outs in the backs, IMO.

@Stargazer Your thoughts on the penalty count?
