<p>Kurt Baker being handed the captaincy is interesting, although aside from Kaka, the cupboard probably bare when looking for a captain form that lot?</p>
-
<p>Good game by team Vs portugal, very physical and good on attack. Scrums were poor though!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is anyone else watching the sevens?</p> -
<p>Must admit that I totally forgot about the sevens!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Results thus far:</p>
<p>NZ 35 - 10 Russia</p>
<p>NZ 31 - 0 Portugal</p>

<p>Next game v Kenya, at 00:03am (NZT).</p> -
<p>good composure by NZ to sneak the win in the end</p>
-
<p>NZ started playing better when Kaka and Ware came on. Don't know why Titch started the game without any playmakers in the team.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Great play from Kaka there at the end. First a try saving tackle, then a quick tap penalty, scoring the try under the post and converting the try.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Final score: NZ 19 - 17 Kenya.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>NZ finish first of their pool.</p>

<p>Edit: that try from Rieko Ioane was awesome!</p> -
They stole that one.
