@nta didn't we still concede four or so without him on?

Don't bring your logic here.

Bint: What a fantastic match!
Good Christ

Lol Coles said they had a reset meeting after SRA. They obviously didn’t discuss defence.

Did that halfwit of a commentator say a 17 try thriller?

@canes4life “don’t worry about defending just go out and score more points”

[gt12]

I would say that points for and against and going to be very important in this competition.

[Canes4life]

@mikey07 because the Canes have won so many titles attacking.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Coles reveals the intense preparations the Canes made this week, i.e. sun and beach.

[mikey07]

@rancid-schnitzel don’t forget all the dancing on Instagram

[Canes4life]

So did we get 5 points in the end?

Put your kicking tee down Jordie you lanky tool.

Don’t think he knows he’s even on air.

A consolation try because Rayasi is a spastic who runs himself out of space and then hurls the ball infield to no-one.

What was with that? He kept doing it, stopping, then flinging the ball away.

Don’t know what was worse in the end. The defence or the ref just ignoring everything.

Best game from Savea since the Quarter Final against France in 2015. Hopefully it’s what he needs to get out of the huge hole his form fell into way back then.

Rayasi also looks slow, even compared to Savea.

[Derpus]

@stargazer only 3 more defenders beaten but 9 more clean breaks. Clear sign their defensive system is fucked sideways.

[Canes4life]

@bovidae he looks slow, but if you see him live he actually moves fairly quickly. He’s got a weird running style, it feels like he’s not running his hardest but so think he is. Needs to learn to keep in the field of play.

worst tacklers:

@duluth ... but made 13, so he's wasn't great, but not terrible either.
