How shit are these All Blacks in the WC?
Read for the second time completely misses a high ball, then another knock on.

Yes, we lost to Japan, which is terrible, but the top sides are getting better while the Ab’s are just getting worse

Aaron Smith warned not to talk to the ref like that again…

As daardie nie ‘n proff foul is nie, dan weet ek nie wat is een nie.

Moes penalty try gewees het.
56

Bullscot on 9 October 2015 at 9:44 pm

Why is that only a penalty should be penalty try and yellow card if you think how quickly it happened to Fiji against England. Oh forgot this is NZ
57

grootblousmile on 9 October 2015 at 9:44 pm
