All Blacks 42 v Wales 9 FT. Saturday 19 June 2010 - Dunedin.

What was that penalty for at scrum time?

Cowan and Phillips think their hard. Little off the ball things is quite annoying.

 

[TRF C A Iversen]

So many players lifting a knotch. This try was sparked by Rokocoko, then Cowans great dying pass, then some quick mixed passing, followed up by a Dan Carter special. Wales did all they can in spite of some miraculous play!

A lot said Rokocoko was back last week. I didn't think so. I'd say he's 90% back now!

 

[Teh Mite]

Supreme from Carter. Is there anything he's incapable of.


*hates self for singing praises of a fly half*

Out of interest, what's happened to Sivivatu?

 

[TRF C A Iversen]

Out of interest, what's happened to Sivivatu?

Injured, but had a lacklustre last few games when he was playing. Not terrible, but playing 3/4 of himself. He'll need some good NPC games with the competition out wide now. Still, he was class and should still have it if he wants it enough.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Wales have been strangled off ball and are struggling to get back any form into this game. Clinical from the All Blacks.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Dan Carter's a machine.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Yapp on for Adam Jones ... oh dear god.
Biggar on for Jones ... interesting to see how he gets on.
McCusker for Gav Thomas ... GT has been ok today.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Pace from Halfpenny ... but Kahui was simply outstanding there.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Was suprised to see GT coming off as well, he's been the best Welsh backrower today

 

[TRF C A Iversen]

Great kick through and chase for Wales, but unlucky as the AB's get back.

All of a sudden a Welsh guy has dived Superman style over a ruck and not got penalised, lol!

 

[Teh Mite]

if only Halfpenny had an extra half yard of pace...

 

[TRF C A Iversen]

Halfpenny certainly has a nippy first 25 metres though. Very good first-five eighth! Another 3pts, I think there's been an equal amount of ruck time penalties in this one so far.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

I think there's been an equal amount of ruck time penalties in this one so far.

Its a lottery with Clancy though :lol:

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Andy Powell-esque offload straight into Mealamus hands by Ryan Jones

 

[cyRil]

It's so easy.

 

[TRF C A Iversen]

Carter is sensational again. (All he needed was some time in the black jersey again), but I must say Mealamu has been an instigator all night!!!!

 

[TRF_Cymro]

******** that ... the man was taken off the ball by the man there. Great catch by Mealamu ... but the man outside was blatantly taken out!

Counter attack from another Welsh mistake.

 

[cyRil]

Counter attacks - this is why NZ are better than the majority of sides. Capitalising on the other team's mistakes, I don't know how many tries they score from it.

 

[Teh Mite]

100m counter attack puts this one to bed, Carter, you are the most talented footballer (and code) in the world.

However, the scorline serves Wales a fair injustice. A stark contrast to Ireland last week, they've been much better then a 26 point deficit suggests.
