Waar is julle gaan dos,
Ek sien nie ons Bokke met soveel oorgawe hardloop nie. Ons maak die spel en bal vas, die ouens offload bloody good.
All Blacks simply awesome, hope we can just give a better showing in the 2nd half. Nice to see Tom Evans interview at halftime, pity a player in his prime injured so badly. Oh well at least the fans will enjoy the party.

@ Bullscot:
They have this running culture, we beat them with our game, well sometimes.
Try Mills Muliaina

The free flow has stopped at least
You have to feel sorry for Scotland.
@ Loosehead:
Since Carter left the AB did not play that well
France (16) 34 – 12 (6) Fiji (80′)
Final wistle a mercy full end to Scotland , All Blacks score 7 converted tries , almost all but one under the sticks.

What a disapointing result, but at the end of it all you can do is just marvel at the skill on display from the All Blacks, even a first choice Scotland would have struggled to keep the score down. A relief though to read that Max Evans is not too bad, wasn’t nice to see him stretchered off, but think that will be him and Blair out for next week, that was at best 4th choice scrumhalf who replaced Blair, just shows the big problem with lack of depth.
@ Bullscot:
Depth is a major problem for all, even yesterday the game showed how much the All Blacks are affected when the 1st choice player comes of. When Carter was replaced the AB’s was 30% less effective.
Only in the last 15 minutes did the AB’s really got it going again, maybe when Scotland started using their bench.
