Good technique by that NZ winger diving for that try. Kept himself in.
Keep an eye on that winger, he has a big future.
What's his name? Leua? Lela? or is that the other one?

All the thread is missing is the anti-frizzell trolls.

Frizzell is playing really well and seems to be giving Ardie more opportunities to attack. Paps seems invisible but that's because he's doing a lot of grunt work. Jordie actually made a spectacular break which was nice to see, but it's his solidness at 12 which is his USP for me.
Can't be churlish with 49 points on the board, but... We are trying too hard and being too clever at times. Keep it simple and error-free. Exits aren't great and it isn't just BB - though the latter has been the worst. Kicking into touch from a re-start is poor.
Think DMac might get on early. Love to see how he goes with Roigard.

Jordan scored and will be the fullback from next year. Telea is the magic feet that also scored.
Cheers.

Eels don't have feet.

So what do we want to see in the 2nd half? An attempt to hold structure and continue as they started?
No red card please

You can only play what's in front of you. ABs excellent.
I'd getting Jordie and Frizell off quickly. No need to risk them second half.
Disagree, then they don't play until Ireland ? Nah they need some minutes
Play them vs Uruguay but they've already shown enough tonight. No need for a Dupont
That could happen at any time, you can't play around the possibility of injuries
-
NZ should push through the 100+ mark in this - if Italy continue to be this bad.

4 more matches for Sir Foz

Dry powder
seriously
Discipline, simple game plan, and sensible options - I really dislike the kicking the advantage away.....grind them down with pressure - and consecutive penalties etc,....
-
80 mins of discipline
Come on -

Come onLol you jinxed it.

Positives
49 fuck points in a half against a semi-decent side!
We're still thr masters of heads up attacking rugby. All talk of structure should not overlook our fundamental point of difference
Discipline
We put heat on their ballFlip side is the fucking exits and overdoing the cute kicks
-
D was poor there. Now settle down.

Italy looked good with ball in hand.

Paps drawn in unnecessarily there, creating that space . but made yards to tidy it up
