Worrying trend past couple years of the junior teams having absolute no clue how to play in wet conditions. No excuses. Coaches need to take responsibility at some point now surely.

Was that the issue? I didn't see the game but am wondering if they tried to play the same as they did against Fiji. If they didn't adapt to the conditions, then yeah, that is criminal.

Exactly this. Been the same story every time they play in wet conditons for the past 2 or so seasons. Something very wrong on the coaching side imho.
 
Got bullied by Argentina to be honest. In the contact area and at the breakdowns. England will probably flog us.

I don't know. I think they just suck overall. Fiji is shite. NZ and Aus are shite compared to the NH teams of late and we did not do well against them.

I mean, Wales almost beat NZ.

The backs are good attacking and not being defensive. Then it is selection issue for the conditions.
 
Looks like a completely different All Blacks team.

I think they will still be too strong for England but you never know.
