Two games against Australia a year is more than enough these days. I'd rather see the ABs play against Japan more often than these multiple one-sided games against Aussie.
I actually enjoyed the Fiji games more. At least you had that immense physical test in the first 60 or so.

Hooker is a massive problem if Taylor is not right for next week.
I think we are okay-ish in other positions.
taukeiaho is great, needs to work on lineout throws but early days.
His long throw is a work on. But otherwise he is an accurate tiger for work.

@canefan Should have started though, he's quality.
He often looks really good off the bench, then starts based on that and is far less effective so goes back to the bench.
-
Also credit to Weber he was very solid today
-
Had to watch this delayed and haven't read the thread so I'll give my tupopence and see how that equates to the wisdom of TSF.
-
Got the impression the Wobbles were barely hanging on but kind of did it well enough to hang on and be in contention for longer than they deserved.
-
Beauden played awesome but wtf the fuck was with his goal kicking.
-
Red card was bollocks. Could wear a yellow maximum, but even then it was a stretch. Where was the yellow on the Wob for taking the man in the air?
-
Ioanes go ok huh?

Damon had a shocker on I think BBBR which admittedly became Bridge's try when he tackled a bloke then was penalised for "not releasing". WTF? Tackled and held must release. Dick.
-
I like Blackadder but he's not in our best XXIII
-
Being less convinced by Havili. Has looked less assured as the test season has worn on. However given he is the best option at 12 as our best option at 12 is currently our best option at 13 given the absence of our best 13.
Will read the thread now as opportunity arises. Other thoughts as they come to hand.

I think the ABs should thank the Fijian forwards, was a good test for them.

Poor version of both anthems.
Nz too slow and Aus out of time
Tune?

their anthem always beats ours. So much better
No way. Ours is one of the best imo.
I love our anthem as much as anyone, but it's a goddamn dirge. Aus's is faster, upbeat and uplifting.
As long as we win the rugby I'm happy, but we start behind in the anthem contest

Looks hot
It’s 22 degrees and no doubt a nice breeze across the stadium as there usually is.
Was 1996 the last day test between the ABs and Wallabies?
I seem to recall 1998 had at least one day time test? Tom Bowman making big yards in Christchurch.
Was there any Bledisloe games in 1998?

I'll ask again, who is the lady next to SBW? I don't think it's roz, unless she has a great tan
This is her, I think.
