:@ACT-Crusader of course we have to be better than that or we get to win shit that is not a good enough performance to win a WC final
If that’s as good as we get we are fuckedYou don't win the tourney in the first game. We have plenty of dry powder for everyone
Hopefully a good source of powder in Japan, plenty of time to add more before the Qfinal.

@Machpants I never thought the Boks would win the WC so yeah they are fucked
Don’t underestimate what the NH teams will bring
Our scrum with the reserve props was poor we missed too many first up tackles
We kicked too much ball away
All things that may cost us unless we get better in those areas -
At this stage I would have ALB/Crotty midfield start again vs Boks. Goodhue will really have to show something special to break into the match day 23.

We only used 20 mins worth tonight

@Chris yes one way I agree, we'll have to get better. But we will. I'd put money this is the best performance of the first round., Tier 1 vs tier 1. And our next 3 games will be average, as the coaches straightjacket the team to test them. And we'll get to the final, not saying well win it, but we're the best team by a good margin

:@Machpants I hope you are right I just want us to get better and smash every fucking team and bring home the WC
Me too
But I'll also be happy with scraping it like 2011

:Scott Barrett had a great game.
Yeah he did. Where are all the gimps with Tuipolotou >> Barrett.
There’s a reason Hansen went with Barrett.
-
A little concerned at the way scrum finished the game..

There’s a reason Hansen went with Barrett.
Patty was also excellent when he came on, put in a number of massive hits which is the point of difference he provides. Both had very good games.
Good to see SB go well, allows us to use Patty as a weapon in the last 30 mins.
-
@Billy-Tell Oh yes we should mention Shag, have to give the man some credit when it’s due.

Yes I would be very happy with SB and Pat T on bench providing impact come QFinal.
