    Weakest looking squad in a very long time. But a big chance for new stars to shine. Looking at you Solo, Cook Savage and Fineanganofo

    The BF7s had a comfortable 41-5 win over SA.

    The AB7s have just lost 24-17 to Aust. Another poor performance. Dickson gets a YC in the 1st min for a leg trip and then Fineanganofo gets a RC for a head-on-head tackle in the 2nd half. NZ scored at the end to make the final score closer.

    So what coaching experience did cama have before taking over? Apart from assistant to previous, like foster. This is a poorly coached team

    Good run by Vai but he can't link up with the support

    21-7 USA at HT

    NZ need a bonus point to make the QFs

    NZ need the conversion to scrape into the QFs

    ..and it misses

    Another sub par performance, although not helped by a string of bad calls in the middle of the game

    Referee just handed Great Britain a spot in the top four after three dodgy decisions in a row against Australia after the clock had run down

    Hmm. That interview with Tomasi Cama said it all for me. He seemed to be on another planet. His selections defy logic.
    Webber and Curry were forced to do too much, but gave 100%. Solo, Cook Savage and Fineanganofo saw little game time but show more threat and play making smarts than others.
    Rush is a good link player but no creator. Vai is a good attacker but needs big big improvements in ball retention and defence. And Clark, well I just expect a whole lot more accuracy and work rate.
    It really reinforces just how much Rokolisoa, Carter, MGB and Mikkelsen add.
    Knewstubb was good for first tournament back but not at his best yet.
    Just can't fathom what the plan is from Cama though.

    I wasn't surprised to see that the men crashed and burned again. The fact that Dickson, as captain, plays the full game and adds nothing proves that the problems start with selection.

    I can't believe that the lack of pace from the 30+ yr olds isn't so obvious to Cama and co.

    Cama seems to have no idea, lots of positive vibe sound bites, along with the previous disgusting 'we're building to Olympics' - nope not good enough

    Miller was knocked out in the 1st min but they never showed how. Blyde with a hat-trick.

    29-14
