We're making a lot of mistakes, but I am starting to see some decent control and structure with ball in hand. Good cleaning out and players all seem to know their roles. Perhaps Schmidt is starting to mould the team.

Yep, we've put 36 on the board without doing anything too flashy

And conceded 23...

Who’s our right winger now?

Ioane

@Stargazer said in All Blacks vs Wales:

Excellent 57 minutes from Taylor. His last game was an improvement, too, so good signs!

Yeah very good signs. He's not on ST's level at this stage of his career but good to see him coming right as his experience will be key come the RWC

[JC]

The difference in height and length between our punts are Wales’s is not funny.

[broughie]

Even the female welsh commentator understands the game of rugby. She commented on why we were kicking when we've been so successful carting it up in the forwards.

Excellent = adequate in this instance. Looked like a handy backup, but in terms of good, didn't do anything anyone else doesn't offer.

Poor discipline & poor reffing.

[JC]

Newell is becoming a very tidy scrummager.

It’s a lottery in there…

[Jailbreak7]

@JC Yes looks like he is getting the plaudits for winning that penalty

[Victor Meldrew]

Akira on.

Fizzell looks injured?

[JC]

Can Barnes not see all the Welsh bodies on the AB side of the rucks?

He has reffed with a double standard today for sure.

[JC]

Ardie in. A warrior’s try

[African Monkey]

Good patience shown. The Welsh have struggled to contain our runners close to the ruck.

[Jailbreak7]

FFS they are actually checking the grounding

[akan004]

Clarke is a worry.

[Stargazer]

Ardie almost stuffed that up by trying to make a spectacular dive.

[Bones]

This is what an excellent hooker looks like. Cleans effectively, sharp and accurate throws, carries through the opposition. Doesn't concede, turnover.

Fucken Showpony.

Get it on the ground.
