All Blacks up
The kiwi's got up tonight 32-12 over the wallabies tonight. Watched the game and we were a bit scrappy and have a lot of work to do before the next game.
Dave,

No craig, born and bred in Oz. Just wish the game was the other way around.

Excepting the mistakes, I thought we played quite well. The lineouts have improved, the pick and drive went well and we held the scrums.
All the NZ tries were from our mistakes, plus we missed far too many tackles. These are basic things so, hopefully, with a bit of practice and some discipline, we should look pretty good, next time out.
In addition the Yarpie ref was shocking. Not biased, just incompetent, unfortunately we got the rough end of it. The TV ref was also a Yarpie.
Still the All Blacks are a great, tough team and deserved to win. WIth the way the Bledisloe is now, they keep it for another year regardles of next match, which I think we'll win.Bodgy

Quite astute synopsis I reckon. I actually think there was quite a bit of good to take out of the game. Originally Posted by Bodgy

Were we watching the same match??
The Aussie scrum looked like it was on roller skates, and you were expected to dominate in the lineouts but you never took one off us.
You sound like Stepen Jones with your analysis of the ref.
I think that you will find that tries are generally scored because of mistakes made by one side and capitalised on by the other side.
My prediction for the Bledislow Cup 3 - 0
Of course I'm a biased sheep jockey based in London.
