Weathers good, crowd small so far

Two from two.

Crowded won't be big. NZRU should look at themselves

Crowd was ok in the end I thought.

Was impressed by the noise for a supposedly small crowd.

Sky must have moved all the ground mics to the right spot

[Tim]

Angus Ta’avao upped him scrum game too.

Can't see Bower starting much more. Is de Groot up to it at scrum time? Wasn't impressed in Super Rugby, pulled back a lot.

At first I thought we were back on the old covid "pipe in the crowd noise track from World Class Rugby PC Game"

The crowd was having a lot of fun, and it was loud. Even the rain didn’t dampen the spirits, was going off at times. Comedy wave felt like it went 20 times around.

May have only been 25,000 there but it was the right 25,000 for good atmosphere.

Some great play to enjoy, and not sure if was obvious on TV but the Aussie focus was on off the ball bullshit. So much holding back and facials in rucks, lots of arguments between players. Dunno if they were doing the Rennie normal negative tactics , but it didn’t help their focus. Hooper lost the plot.

Karl was huge when he came on, was into everything

[Tim]

@kirwan Yeah, Karl's ball carrying was quite impressive. Definitely better player than Bower in all facets.

Saw Hooper hold back AB defenders well behind the line a couple of times. That was what sparked the push and shove with the Ioanes.

@tim Tupou being a grade A dickhead at the end too.

@majorrage 2nd very flat one he has thrown that way.

Man Brodie looks unco when he runs sometimes

I'd love to be that unco

[Tim]

25,121 crowd according to the Herald.

Pickerall is random

Best call of the night

[Tim]

@bones Got murdered in the scrum and did nothing around the field, so had to get some impact in.

Didn’t even look that full

[booboo]

@tim said in All Blacks vs Wallabies Bledisloe 2 Eden Park 14th Aug:

Hooper was holding Rieko back from getting into the defensive line? Rennie special.

Plenty of Aussies getting into o obstructive positions all night.

That’s what they put up at the ground. Sides were fullish, ends were practically empty (except for me and the boy sitting in the rain)

[booboo]

DMac should have just ground it.

Another error

Yeah, hopeless fluffybunny trying to avoid the goal line drop out.
