[pagliaccio_euforico]

Between pollard's kickapalazooza and gardner's love of negative rugby we all should of known this is how it would end.

Does Gardner have South African parents?

Crazy to see how far this All Blacks side has fallen from their 2011-2015 years

 

[Ferrari333SP]

I wonder if Wales could beat this All Blacks team at this point

As easy decision as you'll come by.

"Ehh listen here mate they were just trying to catch the ball, we're all here to have a good time I don't think he meant any harm in it. We'll just play on with a scrum here"

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Games gone soft.

Back in my day that only meant you could punch the winger in the face and then you would hug in the showers all good

How long has NZ basic handling skills been this shite?

 

[Ferrari333SP]

Hahahahahahahaha

 

[Ferrari333SP]

Le Roux was only on the field for, what, 30 seconds, before getting that try?

 

[Saintjay]

New Zealand All Blacks single handedly proving Wales are better than you think.

 

[Jer1cho]

Dominated physically. Abs were literally flying all over the place.

Happy with that. Must have shook up the game plan when Faf went off, worst case scenario as we kick off him and the whole strategy would have been based around him. Hendrikse did well.

This Springbok side is very consistent.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Easy to point out all blacks handling and ability under the high ball but the pressure from springboks forced it. Ended up costing them a red but it also got them a lot of points. Am is probably the best defensive 13 in the world right now and his line speed and chase are the reason why.

Marx did an incredible job of creating pressure on the inside.

 

[unrated]

This was the best performance I have seen from Marx in a game. He is surely the best hooker in the world.

I would love to see a 3-game France vs South Africa series right now

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

World 15's atm in order
1. Steward
2. Williamse
3. Keenan

It would be cracking. I reckon SA would just about edge it terms of physicality, not to such a degree that France wouldn't shade it I reckon.
