<p>I watched the game vs USA and was pleasantly surprised with our stoic defence (until the last play)</p>
<p>Just refused to let the USA do anything meaningful with the ball, and managed to keep Perry Baker out until the very last second.</p>
<p>Had Rasta ref not been sat on his arse in the 2nd half, we would have scored another try. But hey.</p>
<p>A bloody good effort without any real stars and an aging DJ Forbes..</p>

<p>It cracked me up when the US coach told his players at halftime 'they've got no wheels!'.</p>
<p>Yep. Nailed it, you pommy git.</p>

<p>Didn't look grounded, but I'll take it! :whistle:</p>

[rustycruiser]

<p>NZ says eff that, and scores twice.</p>

[Glath]

<p>Goal kicking is so much better with Kaka back.</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>Geez, Kaka was good in that first half!</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>Kaka not kaka at kicking...</p>

[antipodean]

<p>Beautiful restart. I recall Fiji destroying New Zealand by dominating the restarts.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>New Zealand appear to be developing their power oriented defensive game.</p>

[antipodean]

<p>Tackling slightly high killing the Blitzbokke</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>What's the score please?</p>

[Nepia]

<p>14-7 to NZ</p>

[antipodean]

<p>Harsh penalty - Kaka falling into that.</p>

[antipodean]

<p>Nice time to go wide and Ormond scores in the corner.</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Oh! Just found feed.  That must be the win?</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>It is saying 21 mins</p>

[antipodean]

<p>New Zealand win 19 - 14</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>NZ beat SA 19-14! Another win!</p>

[sparky]

Well done Titch and his men!!!

[Crucial]

<p>Yep SA made a hash of that last restart removing any possibility of a comeback win.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>DJ was massive in that game. He has certainly got his engine retuned as twice he tracked back to SA breakouts and made the vital steal/penalty.</p>

[RoninWC]

<p>Great effort by the NZ 7's to win that. Great defense and just how good is DJ Forbes.</p>
<p>The man just has the amazing ability to get over the ball and steal it in crucial situations.</p>
<p>Twice he did it on the NZ line when things were looking a little dire.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyone know why Regan Ware wasn't playing in this tournament?</p>
<p>He really impressed me in both the Wellington and Sydney tournaments!</p>
