Aumua might be the biggest disappointment in supposed talent of the last five years.
His clean work was fucking atrocious, and his running game seems to have disappeared . And then there is the set piece - or more correctly lack of set piece.
They need to give Bell a chance at hooker.
If there was any selection pressure, yes.
But that’s not how it seems to be at all.
Aumua has gone down hill and seems a liability and handbrake from the bench where I would have thought he'd make an ideal impact player.
@Canes4life thoughts?
To me I feel like Ryan has him playing to a very tight structure. He doesn’t seem to be moving much from the ruck and often carries as first receiver. Yes this is part of his role but I’d like to see him have a bit of licence to roam wider where he can be devastating, and was devastating for the Canes earlier in the year.
He’s done things really well but he’s also been completely off the mark. I’m happy to be patient with him as the alternative is Bell and to me he isn’t ready yet physically. But yes, he definitely needs to be better.

Conclusion: our bench is too slow or too easily overawed.

Real freezing cold take by @NTA about the last 20 mins
Saw the score. Based on that, if the Wallabies are a pack of retards, the ABs are a stupid version of Forrest Gump

We should never have ever been in a position to lose that fucken test in the first place!

Hate to say it but the way Oz played the second half points to good coaching by Schmidt, especially after their last thrashing. Somehow Schmidt brought his team back from that disaster, they smelled AB blood in the water in the second half and full of confidence almost pulled it off. And you don’t want to play an Aussie team full of confidence. Bled 2 is going to be very interesting, and the Oz will use our shocking record in Wellington as motivation

Watched a few interviews this week in the buildup via the Allblacks media channels.
Highlights were Razor being asked about surfing with Joey Johns and Tamaiti Williams being asked about whether he gets poo on his hands changing nappies.
Ironically enough the only person with shite all over his hands is the head coach.

Sums things up these days with our gutless media too afraid to lose their accreditations.

Lies.
Our modus operandi is to play one good game followed by utter shit.
have you been out drinking with Derpus?
Given your earlier prediction you should be happy, right? -

Contrasting styles, up against a team that starts in top gear and finishes in reverse.

Up 28-7 after 25 minutes. Scrape home by 3 points 31-28.
I dont know what to make of it. Mainly because I can’t recall a team that looks really good for the first half and then get worse, as the game progresses, like we do.

Another card
Clarke you moron
That was really dumb. ALB was called offside but was given a YC for 3 quick team penalties including the TW no-arms tackle.

You should be full of confidence in that case, because you didn't play well tonight.

See also Will Jordan on this.
Feel like he is overrated.
Riding the back of the space created by better AB teams.
Love would be a better option at 15.
Jordan is a 14 or nothing.While your point on his position may have merit I think you are harsh on Jordan there. He has scored tries from nothing that basically no other Allblack has been doing since “PlayStation Beaudy”.
Jordan’s tries against Ireland in the cake tin, the chip and chase against Wales and USA, the semi final try against Argentina display a skill nobody else in the squad has shown us. The only other time an Allblack has created a “hold my beer” moment in recent memory was Roigard against the Boks in Twickenham.
And remind me, what position was he playing when he scored those tries?

@mariner4life ah yes, TV speakers tell the story. Noted
Just because it fresh in my mine…I suggest you watch the last quarter of the afl prelim…couldn’t hear the commentators over the crowd noise
