Yes, he's more of a potplant than a turnstile.

Why is there no dislike button?

This is the New Zealand that beat Argentina 26-16, and squeaked past the Saffers 20-18? Hopefully our players aren't so girly as our fans!

Douglas and Fardy close to Pocock for mine. Great forwards performance.

3. Pocock 2. Fardy 1. Douglas

Crowd getting some industrial strength booing in!

I think all the nations face similar (or greater) challenges. Ours are relatively easily corrected. There's no rule that says our structures have to be creaky, or that rugby has to be less professional than other sports. Those are choices. Europe's problems with clubs are far more deeply...

No one doubts that. But it's still interesting to think ahead. In the absence of a Wallabies vs. All Blacks Final thread (which would be presumptious) then it's going to percolate into other threads. Unless that falls into the Don't Mention Other Games rule, of course! I've already fallen foul...

This AB team's a different beast to Sydney. Hopefully the Wobs are as well.

Okay. Post deleted. In my defence I was replying to a post already talking about the game. But I'll keep in mind your invocation of the mods. My mother used the boogey man to similar effect. I still eat broccoli, even though I hate it.

Really? Is that a forum rule? If there's a consensus not to discuss other games then I'll certainly obey it, but I've never heard of it before. Personally I'd stay off the Internet until I saw the replay.

I feel like Bledisloe #1. Why not?

That was pretty damned close!

Go Saffers!

What is it with us and sevens. What we'd do for a logjam of XXL versions of those.

It would certainly be fun! I'd love to see him surpass them both.

The playing equation. He hasn't actually captained anything yet, except one junior rep tour. Let's see if he wants to, and then how he goes at the Rebs if he does.

He'll stuggle, with the logjam in front of him. Pocock and Hooper might still be around when he's 30. We forget how young they are.

I don't think it's patronizing at all. We were emotionally spent coming off the England game, and didn't put up quite the same performance next game. Wales were emotionally spent coming off the Wallaby game, and didn't put up quite the same performance next game. South Africa will probably be...

I don't think anyone thinks Argentina is unbeatable. We're justifiably favourites.
