All Blacks penalty, about 7m out
Carter for goal…
@ grootblousmile:Bloody slow. Recession killing any money spending. But we are very happy with the inroads so far. A lot of work to do yet though!!!!!
@ The_Young_Turk:Morning Turky
France 3 / 3 All Blacks
We just had a ad running on tv while the game is still on. Pathetic NZ TV. Absolutely pathetic.Missed that penalty.
French are spoiling their good early challenge with too much rubbish kicking. Just keeps putting them on the back foot every time they have the advantage and then kick it aimlessly away
36 @ McLook:
Somebody’s got to pay the bills…. hehehe
Looking forward to the Lions / Wallabies match… will be interesting
AB’s missing alot of tackles
France penalty at the scrum, against a Franks brother….
Should be a shot at goal… not too difficult either
39 @ grootblousmile:Me too. The hype over here has been huge, a great build up, so hopefully the game will deliver
Badly missed… hooked badly
33 @ Just For Kicks:
Any NEW business which makes money in the 1st 9 months is a wonder business… one wonders when the wheels will come off. Better to build the foundations well and grow gradually
France penalty from a lineout deep in their own 22… played the man in the air
AB new approach is to put the ball in space. Little push through grubbers to play behind the flat defensive lines
All Blacks penalty, ball played on the ground. Shot at goal
I don’t think Carter is given enough credit as to just how brilliant he actually is. His reading, anticipating and execution of the game is second to none. The AB’s are really going to miss him when he’s gone. He has shown some incredible moves in this match already.
Sitter missed, off the posts
Little knock by the All Blacks on the ground.
France scrum
Jeeeez, pity for the Blues and All Blacks that Rene Ranger has to go to Montpellier, such a dangerous player
France penalty at the scrum, All Blacks scrum retreating at quite a rate.
Shot at goal, easy one
Wow, sitter missed.. freegin hell
…and the French kicking gets no better, even when the ball is still, sitting up on the ground and in easy sight of the goal!
Missed a sitter. French not going to win kicking like that.
Arghhhh, bad knock by Fofana… Fo-Fana-sakes…
Hello julle ander RT voorvelletjies!
Pas ingeskakel, maar lyk my die Franse doen beter as laasweek
Sal graag wil sien hoe doen Claasen, die outjie nog nooit gesien speel nie? Hy het vir Tuks gespeel, dan nie GBS?
Handbriekie and Bonzai Handbriekie already off in the VW Bus to go take catering stuff to Loftus where they are catering for some Hospitality Boxes.
AB going to lift the tempo in order to score before halftime.
AB’s must score here
