They are only re-broadcast on Foxtel cable, not satellite or online (Foxtel Go / Foxtel Play).

That's ignoring that Douglas was in even worse form than Horwill for the Lions and EOYT. I'd actually rate Douglas' performance vs the Lions (well) below what our locks dished up on the weekend. This year it's academic, since he announced his departure prior to the French tests. Personally I...

Hope born-red's information is wrong on Chabal. Worrying if true. I also wonder about Kotze.

Interesting that most are expect the Queensland teams to be in the second half of the ladder. On paper, City looks to be in the top four, I'd say, although they may have issues getting their stars on the park who you thought would have been there originally (Genia, Cooper, Horwill, Hanson...

McIntyre, but the same probably applies to Frisby.

You can do what you want with the backs, but if our forwards get manhandled again like they did tonight, and if our defensive line looks so unstructured again, we will get beaten again. Comfortably.

Oh, and Retallick is a freak.

I was surprised at how easily our scrum folded while Simmons was in the bin, was chalk and cheese. Amazing.

I don't think there's much we can do about it right now. Ringing the changes I don't think will work. I expect a few changes - Phipps, TPN coming back in, maybe Foley, and maybe AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to win with Kuridrani at 13 - but not wholesale. To be honest, I don't think the game would've been largely...

What happened to our physicalness? Palu and Fardy struggled to make an impact. I don't get why Carter carries so much when Palu and Fardy are better at it, or there's Slipper and either hooker who are also better. Simmons was better in his physicalness, but gives away a dumb maul penalty...

What did Foley boss? If you mean taking the ball to the line too many times and still joining rucks when he shouldn't (like Folau's try), then yes, he sure bossed it. He did have a good wide pass - but that was at second receiver. Credit to the ABs - just so much better than us...

Crap, To'omua fails to find touch and the All Blacks run it back. They are full of confidence right now. AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) gone by the looks.

Big scrum, good work Slipper on that one.

Lots of short kicks and cross field kicks from the All Blacks. Beale and Folau - one of them needs to move up in defence, both are staying too deep.

Jane off now, All Blacks are dropping like flies. Another few hours and we can run in try after try!

Fardy should have passed that, but we seem to be getting stuck with forwards out wide too much who are killing our plays.

Hmmm, thought Retallick didn't release there, but we should have cleaned him out.

Unfortunately, we can't sub both of our second rows. We need to watch our shooters in defence.

Well, they had only lost McCaw when down to 14, so not too much of a loss (where's the finishing icon gone?). Hoping for a better second half.

The attack from the All Blacks has been great, and our defensive line is not straight. Offloads and short passes are finding holes. Another solid scrum with Simmons back on. Some nice play finally to see us run with the ball. McCaw finally wins a penalty, and quick tap and the All Blacks...
