Bledisloe One: Wellington, October 11

@Kiwiwomble tackle count means nothing. Dominant tackles where you stop people in their tracks Is what we need. We never talked about Kaino’s tackle count. It was the impact of the tackles.

@Stag Savea sure isn't an 8, and it showed alright! His defence was chop.
I liked when he got owned by white

Look at that Sam cane coloured egg all over shark's face
I'm looking forward to some great comments about how super coach Rueben Thorne doesn't rate Akira Ioane.

@mariner4life Cane was fantastic as a player, probably the best on the field, very average as a captain

Stats
Best tacklers
Tackles - missed tackles
Sam Cane 25 - 0
Joe Moody 16 - 0
Jack Goodhue 15 - 1
Sam Whitelock 15 - 1
Shannon Frizell 15 - 2Ofa 14 - 4 (most missed tackles)
Ofa doesn't surprise me. To the naked eye he's trying to smash every tackle he makes, meaning he's missing a few. Needs to pick his moments rather than always look for thr big shot

I'm an omelette, canes stopped us losing, savea did some good stuff, but was mostly anon. The difference between ABs canes and chiefs canes is greater than canes nonu Vs abs nonu!

So.....We're basically fucked.
Our coaches are shit and we've only got about two players who are up to playing in tests.
Luckily we can call up Flash Jordan....AAAAH..AAAH ....King of the Impossible!
if they picked my team they would win by 40

Congratulations Fozzie. You did something Henry or Hansen didn’t achieve and that is lose the first Bledisloe match against a new Wallabies coach.
Slow starters, new combos, inexperienced backline, silver linings, hope, the draw we needed to have

So who would have though James Fucking O’Conner would have completely outplayed an All Black ten?
the new mature James O'Connor is actually producing on his never doubted talent

Beaudean's achilles better come right by next week.

Yes. This!
We might need to start developing Josh Ioane sooner rather than later too.

Yeah just playing people in their positions would make a big difference.
