New Zealand vs England (06/07/24)

[TRF_Olyy]

Feel like you should never be able to be turned over when there's that many supporting players around you

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

NZ taking out the supporting runners a lot and getting away with it

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Nicely worked try

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Lovely pass, and the build up play too

Thanks, I'll have a look for next week.
Chrome with adblocker, gives me about 2 dozen pop-ups that can't be closed if I want the match itself on full-screen.
But at least I'm watching this half.


Nice try

Smith again, missing another penalty, kicking poorly out of hand and in this attacking phase hes stepped back in twice. TWICE!!!!!!

And also a key reason they scored the try….

 

[Which Tyler]

Smith's not got his kicking boots on today, that's 2 easy enough kicks since I've been watching.
He'll need to work on that.

He killed the attack twice in that phase, England scored that despite him lol another miss brings his tally to 8.

Just a word on the crowd, boo away I'm all for it, but kiwis love complaining about opposition crowds booing

 

[Which Tyler]

Smith .. and in this attacking phase hes stepped back in twice. TWICE!!!!!!

He does it a lot, it often presents him with a gap to go through, or put a runner through on his shoulder.

It's only a bad decision if the defence reads it and covers it.

 

[dirty harry]

Poor effort on the floor from Smith, he was turned over way too easily!
Look at the 4 kiwis waving their arms and crying at the lineout there, geez mun

I get the feeling curry might just settle our breakdown in possession a bit.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Wtf were we even trying to achieve there!?

Spoke to soon.

As a defensive coach, I tell my D that every time a 10 steps inside it's a massive W for us. I know Gregor Townsend says the same, that where I learnt it hahahaha

I know I'm complaining about Smith a lot, I could attribute the same criticisms to McKenzie, but I think he is a flawed 10, who makes a tons of mistakes. I would hope for better from smith

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That is never a penalty in the NH, hands on the floor but still on his feet

You only see those called if the player full on hits the deck

Who's rated at 10 by you currently playing, I already know he's not Welsh

England are being hard done by especially at the breakdown. But you got to expect that in NZ

 

[Ceteris]

England not kicking when they are supposed to
