That should settle some nerves on here. One of the great trys.
Saw two forward passes in real time but it did deserve 5 points...
But what I noticed about this was just before it happened the cameraman/producer widened out and panned to the backline sensing something was on. There was a real change of energy as that was happening.

@broughie I'd also like refs to make them take kicks (line kicking more so) on the mark, so often they go a good metre or more.beyond
Was thinking about starting a 'Things that shit me' type thread with this exact point.

I think we know who plays at 6.
Yep, conversation over really. His contribution deep in the game should end shitty comments about work rate.
But does he still make faces and rub heads?

@bones And here's the twitter version, which embeds properly (what's up with FB, why won't FB posts embed anymore?)
"Always enjoy playing against you guys (because we keep winning)"

I've started referring to Super Rugby as " Super Rugby Entertainment" bit like the WWE business model and I wonder if once Oz were so far behind they changed to the Super Rugby let's have a go instead of the let's treat this like a serious test

Not biased here but thought the ABs really missed Sam Cane last night. Saw too many missed tackles or soft tackles.
Good tackler but the defensive problem wasn't at 7? Or are you implying they would have lifted if he was captain?

I don't think he could have done any better than the 7 that started.

He has no influence on the general pattern of the team that is for sure

Ian Foster provides update on All Blacks' late injury set-backs
While the All Blacks may have named their team to take on the Wallabies on Thursday morning, the actual team that ran out on Eden Park on Saturday night wasn't confirmed until right before kick-off.

The BoP one-eyedness knows no bounds 😉
Not a criticism of the other players because they are relatively young, but Cane does have that ‘stop you in your tracks’ hardness in his tackles.

Akira and Dalton have some ability in that area, but Cane is the gold standard track stopper - and I hate BoP with a passion, they're like North Island Canterbury to me.
