RWC Week 4: All Blacks v Italy

[Donsteppa]

Another comical clearance kick

[stodders]

@Steven-Harris can’t deal with the intensity

[Mattasaurus]

OK this sort of match worries me as some of the egos may lap it up too much...... Italy not in this and have been pourus on defense .. we need to stay disciplined and keep doing the basics well

[chimoaus]

Lack of handling errors and turnovers has been very good compared to France.

[Victor Meldrew]

Poor-ish exit from RMo. Give it to Jordie.

[Damo]

I was a touch worried when I got up this morning but they are looking good.

Italy are not defending well but still there is a noticeable lift since we played Namibia.

Exits are still a work in progress.

[stodders]

@chimoaus yep, exit kicks aside, accuracy has been good

[booboo]

Always shuffling sideways under pressure

[mariner4life]

Italy appear to have given up defending already

[chimoaus]

Fuck the Italians reverting to minnow status.

the sad and telling thing is - that was the best kick exit we've had in several matches....

[Machpants]

Crap exit again

[taniwharugby]

@Victor-Meldrew better that goes out than the shorter.stuff we usually do

[stodders]

Scrum and line out going well too

[sparky]

Reports of the All Blacks’ demise were some what premature.

[mariner4life]

If this really is the full extent and range of our kicking game, we are going to play the entire quarter inside our own 40m line

It's barely club standard

Made up for by Jordie penalty kick.

[booboo]

Good kick BB

[chimoaus]

JB might be one of the most important cogs in this team. Well him and RI, there is daylight behind them both.

[sparky]

McGod.
