USA v All Blacks Test - Chicago November 2014

[Pfitzy]

Petri can't pass to his right.

 

[Pfitzy]

Fucking hell Joubers - they're not playing against Australia now, so could you penalise the ABs once in a while?

 

[Pfitzy]

Like the look of Scully too.

 

[Pfitzy]

Not too many wingers could say they've made that tackle. Well done Scully.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Try saver by Scully on Savea & that's HT.

No. He's our Uncle, dontcha know.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Oranges. Team USA seem to be running out of puff.

Pace of the game seems to be a little too high for them. Not enough set pieces for the fatties to catch their breath. Joubers playing a lot of advantage rather than calling infringements and restarting the game with a scrum.

 

[Dismal Pillock]

Love these comms, great perspective.

NZ committing ZERO to rucks on D. Up the guts sepps, dont let those fatties just fan out!

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Clearly the US viewers are getting rather different pictures than we are...... comms are trying hard but 1st AB team selected in 1884? Really? Can't really argue with them having won 2 of the last 7 WC's, though.

 

[exISA]

did have a chuckle when the commentators said "at 12-6 the USA were in it, but now at 19-6 the floodgates have opened" ...

Can put up with commentators, trying to explain game to Yanks, but pretty disappointing camera work, and I know it just because they don't know game.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Nice kick pass to Savea but he throws it forward & Uncle calls it back.

I remember a game being broadcast from Italy and the camera angles were just plain weird. Artistic, almost

To be honest fellas - when you and the guys over on the Fern are disparaging of the efforts of US rugby, the commentators, the camermen, etc - you just sound like a bunch of arrogant buggers.

Just enjoy it for what it is.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Joe Moody runs through the gap between the lineout pods, Cruden misses so 48-6 & 46-6 score from 1991 RWC overtaken with 32 still to go.

Cruden brings up the 50 then goes off, Carter on. Also Franks on for Moody.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

NZL getting thrashed according to AllBlacks.com
Score is apparently NZ 6 USA 53.

 

[Pfitzy]

Righto Seppos - scrum inside the 22. Make it count!

Calm down precious, I wasn't trying to be disparaging, I understand why we don't get such good camera angles etc, the production crew don't know the game!!

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Read also off, Vito to 8 & Messam on at 6. Carter captain. Dagg bags another in the corner, Carter nails it, 60-6.

Pulu on for TJP, only Retallick left on the bench? Nope, big Charlie still there so Franks2 also available.

Cane gets the next under penalty adv for a high shot on Pulu. Comms have much man love for Ruchie lol. Carter adds the extras, 67-6.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

AB scrum hinges, Crockett must be out there lol. But Uncle pings the Yanks, we take another scrum. Big Brodie also on, bench must be empty. And another scrum right on the AIG logo.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Savea gets what will surely be the last try, nice lead up from the other touch line. Carter from outside the green stripe again & gets it, 74-6 & Uncle says it's all over. Standing O from the crowd. Good hit out for our guys, lost some shape when the subs came on but that's to be expected.

England next week will be a cracker, just gotta work out how & where I can see it!

 

[USARugger]

Structure breaking down after less than 2 phases on attack and less than 1 phase on defense, USA played to their strengths for maybe a combined 6 minutes of the test.

Communication amongst the team just awful in so many ways.

Can we get a new coach now, please?
