TRC: Pumas v All Blacks
-
Get Fifita off!
-
Didn’t see first part of game. Looks okay but so hard to guess on intensity on TV. Looks a step up from super, although lots of errors from ABs Pumas throwing their bodies around but look spent. 20-10 at half good imo. How Reece go to start?
-
@Old-Samurai-Jack And Jordie. I want to see Ennor on that left wing. Not a giraffe pretending to be a winger.
-
Good 39 mins for Pumas and then Sanchez throws a diabolical and idiotic pass that was never on and in a Flash ABs get a 11 pt lead that flatters them
Well balanced game but has likely swung decisively to NZ on one pass
Fifita Lavanini and Kramer has been fucking awful with their discipline
A Savea is a machine never goes to ground easily or willingly
-
20-9 at the half.
Deserved lead. Ever so slightly flattering but not masively so.
Arg looked good early. ABs starting to win the territoryand possession.
We seem to be vulnerable to the well executed high kick. They are dropping it where there is traffic and our catchers can't get to it.
Re Fifita. Someone above said he was lazy. I don't think that's his problem. He's just made too many errors. A couplkwe of pens and some handling errors. Mind you he s not Robinson Crusoe on the handling front. And some were pretty tough.
Angus generally good. Arg got away with a few things early but few glaring errors.
-
We are playing OK for first test of the year. Normally we are dreadful in the first test.
Ardie Savea making a strong case for a starting spot somewhere in the 15. Fifita making a strong case to be left out.
Don't get the hate for Jordie Barrett. With Dagg gone we miss a big kicker in the back 3.

@Jaguares4real The Pumas good in those 39 minutes? You must be watching another game.
-
Scratchy start from the boys with a lot of mistakes ,but I do wonder if the try before halftime has taken the wind out of the Pumas sails, they looked deflated trudging off at the break , start with the good ,defence has been superb..,set piece scrum and line out superb..just need to eliminate the handling errors and we should put these guys away comfortably..Laumape must go to the RWC ahead SBW..not sold on Fifita..

Pumas had a good 20 mins playing game in right area and kicking well
2nd 20 minute game being played in ARG half and to keep ABs to 13 points was a string positive but Sanchez decide to gift wrap 7 pts to the other side
-
Jordie does a good thing
-
@Hooroo said in TRC: Pumas v All Blacks:
Where does Savea start if we were about to play the WC final? He has to start, surely????
He reminds me of Rodney Soioalo (sp) when he was in his prime, only Savea is more powerful.
He'll be on the bench
Will be the 2015 version of SBW and B Barrett
Come on at 55 mins and cause carnage against tiring defences

@rotated said in TRC: Pumas v All Blacks:
Is there a reason why Cane/Savea/Read would be unbalanced?
Hmmm. I'd like to say Pooper.
But Ardie is a lineout option. (Wouldn't even hsve to jump)
-
Try. Smith had that but ripped off him.
