[QUOTE="nzlizard, post: 671926, member: 70865"] Thats how I felt after the whistle blew Never in doubt is not the words I would have used He was huge, outplayed Read and the amount of turnovers he won was huge. Read played good he just played better. NZ player of the year for me, and must be a finalist for IRB player of the year. Well a few kiwis had called it by 20 points but credit to SA they brought it to us, the wheels fell of for them a bit in the end and they looked a little lost, but the AB's were also the cause of that. SA lineout fell apart in the 2nd half, scrums were interesting, we certainly looked rocky but showed some good form as well. Ben Smith is awesome, felt Dagg had his best game of the season, Dagg, Smith and Savea looks more potent then Smith, Savea and Jane. Jane is solid but just doesn't have that wow factor consistently now. Was good to see Dagg hitting the line and getting involved, he was certainly way busier than usual. We needed Messam or Kaino out there, also how good was Sam Cane when he came on. Moody looked good when he came on, he may just have a big future. Cruden was average. Nonu needs to break the line more and stop the kicking(or at least learn to kick), bring back SBW. [/QUOTE]
