All Blacks v Wales Test #3

I agree I think he looked amd thought the pass was risky

Welsh look tired this week different sort of game, but agree Moala looks much more the type of player we want at 13.

They cant handle the SILVERBACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cane just isn't accurate enough for me. Savea all day and night please. Opps that doesn't sound right. lol

1) Ben Smith & Dagg are having blinders
2) So is Moala. But you just know he was the ball-greedy kid at school. Botched a certain try by not drawing and passing (and then maybe knocking on)
3) Cane is cynical. But unlike McCaw he doesn't get away with it.
 
Biggest loser of this half - Fekitoa: Moala is making hay.

Unlucky by Moala, probably should've just gone to ground rather than the kick.

Moala has given the midfield a more direct look about it

mariner4life

So far he's made breaks through the middle; using power; and on the outside shoulder with pace. It's a decent first half. 
Dagg huge, pack doing well. Good performance because the Welsh aren't playing badly

Huge opportunity missed before h/t by Wales. One Welsh hand looked to have grounded the ball but didn't go upstairs ? Strange one. 
We're being outplayed out wide though, pace of NZ back 3 is killing us. 
It's going to be a long night.

Dagg and Smith together is so slippery

My god, Moala reminds me of early Nonu. 
Equal parts 'wow!' And equal parts 'you fucking muppet!'

Ref missed a couple of things against them and called against us.

Obstruction ar first kick off then he calls it against us.

Sorry can't agree. 
Reckon he's having a huge game. 
Unfortunately Richie didn't gift him the cloak of invisibility

Very disappoointing. Francis was on his feet when he dabbed the ball.

If you're fucking thick enough to continually kick the ball to NZ's two best strike runners then you deserve to get buried.

Thought the disallowed moala try was a try and also think Wales scored near the end so I guess 1 each

Not selecting pace on the bench is going to kill us.
 
It's killing us on the pitch.
 
J Davies, Amos and Patchell off the pace in defence allowing Barrett, Ben and Dagg too much space.
 
If Liam Williams goes off we're proper fucked.

Third test in a row that we've blown scrum attack just before half-time. You'd swear the Welsh players were being tazered ever time they touch the ball.

Hope Welsh tighthead doesn't get vertigo! Moala straightens attack noticeably better than in last two weeks. that said, Crotty has been good, but not a big enough unit to force through closer in. Having spotted much of Dixon.
