What the fsck?! Why was the Wallabies/Frogs game so early? It's supposed to be at 12:00! Missed it completely.

ffffuuuuu.

Anyway, will be interesting to see how Fekitoa fares in his first starting test. England were very potent in the first 2, and won't let up easily.

Personally I think Barrett should have started in place of Cruden, but Hansen is sticking with him. Glad to see Read back, though. Messam hasn't been on top form lately.

Sheesh, two very pretty ladies they had singing the anthems. :O

And lol at TJ Perenara's face.

S hit I also need to pay more attention to that thread... Also missed the Aussie game... And forgot there's F1 this weekend!!

Well that wasn't the start England wanted.

Missed penalty and then a try at the other end.

5-0 to NZ

Going to get flamed for this but Richie is past his sell by date. He should have retired from international rugby 2 seasons ago.

 

[OrbitalDawn]

Savea!

Not flamed but as luck would have it he is part of a beautiful piece of play just after you posted that.

Are you referring to his pass to Cruden in the 2nd Savea try?

Haha yeah. Beautiful pass.

They've definitely improved in that department. Smith's passing has been great so far. Goes like a bullet. Flat and straight.

And almost a 3rd for Savea!

 

[APoc184]

Are you referring to his pass to Cruden in the 2nd Savea try?

Yes and the drawing of the defender right up to the right moment.

Seems like it is going to be a long night for the Poms. Third tried just denied by a forward pass.

 

[OrbitalDawn]

Yeah, he had very little time to get that pass away before he got smashed. Created the width necessary for it to go wide.

Nah, you see that's what I'm talking about right there, hero worship. Guy throws a rudimentary pass and everyone's oooing and uuuuing.

 

[APoc184]

There we go with the 50/50 calls.

Harsh yellow yet again.

Not hero worship, just a quality piece of play. Wasn't mind blasting or anything.

Drawing the defender? He got rid of that as quickly as he could and was almost too slow getting nailed ball and all.

Definitely. Silly card, imo.

 

[OrbitalDawn]

Jane and Cruden back to their top form, looks like.
