RWC: All Blacks v Canada (Pool B)

[booboo]

So. Lotsa chalk all over hands and jerseys in attempt to hold the ball?

[African Monkey]

Why do people care so much about us being below par in games like this? As long as we don't lose any key players, then everything's all good.

Some comical-looking handling errors from the AB's. SBW hasn't contributed,

Oh, the irony.

You missed his outstanding offload for the Canada nearly try?

ITV did a segment on his good involvement, really varied. Has the Canada defence all over the show.

[Damo]

I don't think we've been subpar. Quite a few handling errors but we are looking good with the ball in hand.

I remember at the last WC , they were playing a little strange in the pool stages, and shag told everyone to relax , we are just practicing scenarios.

Reckon we're playing ok. Just dropping the ball. If that makes sense.

[Siam]

@African-Monkey yeah, there was a tournament about 4 years ago that told us not to sweat this stuff.

Bank a win and practice set pieces

It looked like Goodhue is going to be subbed at half time.

Looks like he’ll be starting in 4 days as well then. Bender to centre or could we see the return of the midfield combo that we dare speak of.

He didn’t try to offload, he just got a pass that he wasn’t expecting and knocked it on.

Some posters need a chill pill, relax!

Come on we should be up by 100 by now. Not dropped one ball or one turnover

[Bones]

@Kirwan my thoughts exactly...

[Stargazer]

Weber on for TJP.

[African Monkey]

@ACT-Crusader Yeah like the 2007 pool games. Look where that got us.

[Bones]

Woooo! SBW even bringing Rieko back into form.

[Stargazer]

Crotty for Goodhue.

[ACT Crusader]

Sonny with a Ralph-esque run and Ioane in.

[booboo]

So SBW fucks up. As does Ioane .

[Victor Meldrew]

Reiko in.

Hope that gives hims some confidence

[African Monkey]

Old Rieko would have scored that under the posts.

[KiwiMurph]

Amazing what happens when there is quick ball from 9.
