Crotty moving freely , get him off , cotton wool

You know he'll slip while sitting on the reserves seat and dislocate his hip if you try that. Have you not seen Final Destination?

Don't know whether this is Tonga's strongest team, but this is a really bad half time score for them.

I reckon the comeback might be on

[Nepia]

Tonga should have played East Coast or Southland to give them a chance to break their ducks.

[sparky]

2nd most points ever by the All Blacks in the 1st half of an international. Only scored more against Japan in 1995.

[Higgins]

If I was Steve Hansen, I'd be kitting up and slipping myself on as the replacement tighthead at halftime to make my All Blacks debut.

You don't think he could handle the midfield of his playing days anymore?

[No Quarter]

Haha well that’s a first kick off to remember for J Ioane!

[kiwiinmelb]

Geez what happened there ?

[Donsteppa]

A try within 8 seconds of the kickoff. Great AB’s play, and Tonga are an embarrassment.

[Gunner]

First ever touch of the ball in test footy for Ioane is a try assist.

No he looks to have lost a yard of what pace he did have. Might be good to see him with Sigfried Fisi'ihoi on this tail as he plods away on a 50 yard waddle for a possible try. He might get caught from behind if he is not careful. As I type this B Barrett has another wind recorded against him as the score races onto 59 without loss.

[Gunner]

Gee Tonga are disappointing, I expected us to win comfortably but they really have been terrible.

[Sneakdefreak]

Turn on Prime TV and see George Bridge scoring off the first kick off of the second half.

Is there a mercy rule?

[sparky]

Gonna be a long second half for Tonga...

[kiwiinmelb]

Ardie , gee he is quick

Faster than his wing brother I reckon.

He seriously would be now

[Stargazer]

Geez, 71 - 0 after 49 minutes.

[Frank]

Okay, time for Jacobsen, Savea in cotton wool.
