Bledisloe #1

@pakman said in Bledisloe #1:
Last 20 rewatch. Was our worst period:
-
Big gaps close to rucks, esp. for Koroibete try, after Tupou twice made good ground.
-
ABs passing to no one -- Patty T after SW takes kick off at 33-19, Taylor after great Savea break from 22 -- and Patty T drop in contact.
-
Poor kicks gifting possession -- Laumape grubber, RM kick which Beale ran from goal line and could have led to end to end try but for Read covering.
-
More easy metres from pick n go, leading to Hodge's second.
-
Moli poor defensive alignment attacked, second time big hole when Beale scored.
-
At 40-26 Read taps penalty rather than kicking into Oz 22?
-
Moli under pressure at scrum.
-
Last try from good scrum on our 10 metre -- Oz momentum wasn't checked (our forwards on wrong side field), leading quickly to final try.
Takeaways:
-
Gave away possession by forcing things rather than being patient (5 times!). Treasure the farking pill!
-
Defence round ruck abysmal.
-
Fast Oz ball meant they several times made 40 metres in a blink, and once five out were clinical.
Points two (White) and three (three second ruck speed) covered well in Chalkboard at 26 minute mark of this:
