Ah come on no one is saying he is "screwing us over". But he has made a couple of notably poor decisions which its fair to highlight, especially when they deny you either tries or attacking opportunities. Have to disagree on the pocock penalty also. I guess its a matter of interpretation but in real time it was never a penalty for me.

But you're right its a great game. What concerns me is that Oz are well in the game despite having done very little. If we go off the boil or they get a purple patch we could be in trouble.

Can't make the most of our chances.

Again.

Hurrache

Don't know why Pocock isn't being targeted any time he even looks at a ruck.

vienne86

Ah all that effort and then that!

ScrubsfanChris

There was an overlap wide, wrong desicion to cut back in.

Exactly. Me neither. We need to adapt our attacking game to target him.

Have maul timing rules changed?

AbusesToilets

Wasting so much ball, NZ would've scored a few tries from these positions. Need to do much better

He is. We are absolutely smashing him but you can't get him every single time.

Gidea

Another tackle off the ball and no card

They were given plenty of time to get that one moving alright.

sydthebeat

Phipps isn't half the player genia is

Squidgy Black

Henshaw is ten times better at inside centre.

Off ****ing side before that intercept by a MILE. 4 players.

Hurrache

That's the second in a row Beale went high.

Buer

Our halfbacks are absolutely buzzing since the break. Passing into gaps is fantastic.

vienne86

Have to score here.

umop episdn

Need some ingenuity at this lineout

vienne86

Jazuz. So frustrating.

Clegg

Again

Again

Again

Gidea

Tackling players off the ball and going high and no card, Ref needs to put a stop to it

Stupid... stupid decision to replace your hooker at a 5m throw

Scannell looked injured as he was coming off there.

Stupid time to replace your hooked ffs.

mangobob

PhlegmyMoses
