Sometimes you just gotta hold your hands up and say " We're Shite!"
We didn't play well for most of the game but not many other teams would punish every little mistake the way the All Blacks did.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out our attack , it has never changed, but the All Blacks were prepared for the particular rush defence we play. They knew exactly where the rush would come from and were able to take lines inside each time. It made our defence look ragged time and time again.
If Murray's kicking game isn't causing the opposition problems he's probably a negative overall. He's so slow at delivering the ball from a ruck that it totally blunts us, it's no surprise we are snappier after he went off.
I don't know that it mattered that Larmour didn't play , or any of the other selections to be honest. I don't think we were beating them today

Well that was a severe lesson.
Sexton was brutal. 🙁
Would love to see Japan cause an upset or Wales in semi

Can’t see anyone getting near the All blacks but I’d like Wales to win it now we can’t
Crazy elbow. Wales so so lucky. They’ll get hammered in the semi.
Japan throwing everything at it

They made their luck to be fair. But they clearly have issues offensively. I think they'd be clear favorites against Japan - against South Africa I'm not si sure.
I don't know how Japan are so close here - we have wasted numerous chances to score tries here ... It's not going to end well when we're so wasteful.
There's a vast gulf in quality though imo

that was a great team try ... finished by Faf.
21-3 ... we're dominating them physically - this one should be over.

yah was impressive today.
So can I. The Saffers always bring a physical challenge but don't seem to me to have the additional cutting edge behind the scrum that they've had in the past. Not that they're downright poor there, just ordinary by some of their own past standards.
I hope that's the frame of mind in which they approach the semi-final against us. If it is, we'll turn them over. Whether we do or not, we'll defo "get near them".
Based on the 1995 / 2007 / 2019 argument, I hope you're wrong! ;-)
I don't know who to cheer on. If Japan were still in it they would be my team.
Now I'll just watch and hope that there's good rugby. And that England get spanked 😉
If you have a proper ginger then you don't need my support.
England have looked like a formidable team for quite a while, but have just had error strewn games where they are architects of their own downfall. Jones seems to have coached the errors out of them.
This is superb from England so far but NZ are off form. Amazing what an early try can do even for the most assured sides.
10-0 and should be 13/16-0

Fuck me 17-0.
Long way back for the all blacks here
