June International Test: New Zealand vs. Wales [2nd Test] (18/06/2016)

[Bluemoon]

But he has not been at any of the breakdowns in the second half?

He made a turnover between the sticks in the Wales 22 at about 49/50 mins.

Good consistent refeeing whats going on are we in the twighlight zone??? Williams and Naholo would of been carded if this was Barnes running the show!!!

 

[GoTheNaki]

Ardie Savea YUUUUUUSSSSSSSSS

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Considering how many tests Roberts and JD have played together their defence/cohesiveness has been pretty poor - twice a player has ran between the two and it's led to a try.

 

[AzaMatt]

It's all falling apart now

You have a thing for Barnes?

 

[Tony Manx]

He made a turnover between the sticks in the Wales 22 at about 49/50 mins.

Must have blinked but odds on captain of the Lions? Not for me....maybe still under played since his injury hit season I suppose!

As for the Welsh depth question, is he really the right choice at 7 any more than Roberts, who has had a dreadful game, at 12?

Biggar, Patchell and Williams have been the only backs to stand up as Amos and Davies have not looked like international players for me.....

Ps wish Williams would cut out the footballesque diving.....

 

[GoTheNaki]

Fob still can't tackle..

 

[Gavin]

Williams was taken out there but that dive was a bit over the top

 

[Bluemoon]

Take the big players off now and think about next week. Need to take the positives from the first half and rethink the breakdown and the attack. NZ have been very clever as always, and have just slowed the Welsh attack down to the point of nullifying it.

 

[Tony Manx]

Beaut!!

 

[austingtir]

yep Liam Williams should be playing soccer.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

This could turn into a real massacre now.

 

[AzaMatt]

How the hell do you overthrow like that at international level

 

[Thingimubob]

Well the fitness has gone completely. Not too shocking considering some of those on the field have played 3 games in a week after a long old season. All Blacks taking full superb clinical advantage of it.

 

[McTallshort]

Poor lads having to do this all again next week. Stupid stupid schedule

 

[TommiG88]

Wales know one thing, Amos and Patchell are not international standard.

 

[Tony Manx]

Well the fitness has gone completely. Not too shocking considering some of those on the field have played PART of 3 games in a week after a long old season. All Blacks taking full superb clinical advantage of it.

Corrected for you......but your point is valid!

Wales know one thing, Amos and Patchell are not international standard.

Harsh on Patchell....

 

[Bluemoon]

Wales know one thing, Amos and Patchell are not international standard.

In fairness to Patchell, he only got there a couple of days ago and it's his third test. He was playing golf in North Wales haha. Except for the Savea moment I didn't think he did too badly all things considered.

Amos on the other hand has had plenty of training, time with the squad etc.

 

[austingtir]

Liam Williams has been bloody good other than the flopping.

I was gunna say Seta had been good until that happened... Probably was the right idea though.
