We look a bit shit

Roigard stripped at an attacking maul and suddenly Italy have a lineout inside NZ's 22...
Not sure the Italian maintained his bind .. but we should be better than that
-
Roigard fumbled the fuck out of that one

Bind?
-
Cane taken off the ball
-
Based on these first ten minutes, the Italians will fancy their chances of an upset.
-
What horrendous rugby from the All Blacks.
-
This is dire shit.
-
Roigard hasn’t had a great start
-
Looks like we’ve massively underestimated Italy in our build up, they’re all over us atm (scrums aside)
-
Fun start, ITaly coming to play, Roigard having an absolute shitter so far
-
Ease off team critic. Italians are unbelievably pumped and we are playing into their hands calm down, play our game.
-
Italy lead 3-0.
The All Blacks have been utter turd so far.
-
As I've been telling some of you all week, Italy are a decent side.
-
Zero direction from 9 & 10, and about as little effort from the forwards.
-
Bring on Havili already, we need to win this, need a game breaker.
-
Scrums: good
Everything else: a bit shit (except you in the air, Caleb - that was very nice)

What a crock, clearly Blackadder is needed here
-
Big head knock for Caleb Clarke.

Individual excellence is going to save the day.
-
Italy look pretty bad as well tbh. The option taking on attack has been poor and conceeding a lot of penalties.
-
Fark, if this is how we’re going to play, may as well have Reece out there. Get some structure first!
-
Jeez the rucks are untidy, they’re diving off their feet, and the ball is squirting out all over the place.
Put some more numbers in and get us some clean ball FFS
-
Why the ctual fuck aren't we knocking them back in the cleanouts

Sounds like Razor's upcoming press conference spin
-
Every eyetie offside behind the ref"s back every breakdown. Are we trialling a return to no ARs?

That's the team Argentina put 50 on two weeks ago? The one Samoa beat?
The reality is we're playing poorly, especially the reticence to go forward with good cleans.
-
Bit obvious
-
More than a few All Blacks looking like they are mentally on the beach already.
-
So frustrating. Offside Italy and they are still awarded a penalty
-
we're adjusting to the interpretations so well....

Yeah they are flooding the rucks, which is working, but illegally ask the time
-
Italy have been pretty awful every time they've had the ball. NZ just haven't been very good either.
-
Another huge Beauden kick for touch.....

Yep , flooding rucks, WAY offside behind whichever way the ref is facing, means we've only got one way to go, and under pressure.... pretty easy to defend against.
-
Italy doing a good job of disrupting our play but I suspect penalties will get them in the end
-
would be nice to see BB actually run on to the ball and not just shovel flat ball constantly.....
Instead of cross and box kicks a traditional grubber in behind will find plenty of space -
