Best of luck to them. Still remember the green machine's last tour there. A first test hammering, then we ran them very close in the second which must have pissed them off a bit as the third test was 60-0. 😆
Try time!
OK, back to realitya
They really are a bit good aren't they?
Sounds like a cracking game.
Halftime 18-15....... to Wales 🙂
keep it up lads
What a cracking half of rugby!
With a bit more luck/composure Wales could have had a couple more tries.
Don't kick it to Ben Smith unless you're gonna nail him. Amos is too slow to mark Naholo.
Wales are disrupting the ABs lineout well. Liam Williams, AWJ, North and Faletau have been brilliant.
Highlight was North skinning Savea.
COME ON!
Really good game.
NZ are letting Wales in with some uncharacteristic mistakes but Wales have turned up too. Loopy Liam is looking like the attacking x factor as he has all season, running lines you don't see too much from Wales. Pack is working hard too but I can see NZ running away with this after 50-60 minutes. It feels like 80% of the Welsh boys are a few games back from injury and they must be flippin' knackered already after that effort!
All Blacks doing better than I expected. Wales to up a gear second half!
What channel is the wales NZ game on?
I can see NZ running away with this after 50-60 minutes
Yeah, probably......
But we can enjoy it 'til then. 😀
Sky spurts one
What channel is the wales NZ game on?
Sky Sports 1 but try cricfreetv if you want a stream - with a pop-up blocker, preferably.
BBC Radio Wales Sport is the best I can manage on the internet
Great effort from Wales so far - hope they can keep it up! ABs look more human than in recent years...
Jeeebus, Biggar went flying!
What could go wrong with 4 changes at once?
I'd normally go with the defending team with an SH "flat pass" but to be fair, that looked ok. Wales still in it...just. 🙂
Of all the NZ flat passes in the world that looked pretty normal
Plain wrong from Wayne Barnes.
The pass came backwards out of the hands from Cruden.
The TMO even told him the rule!
Can't believe Barnes then said, "yes but lets look at the ball" 🙄
Oh, and although I wish no ill on anyone, the sooner a replacement can be found for Anscombe the better
Good effort by Wales but missed too many chances in the 1st half and NZ too strong in the end.
Uphill from here.....
Yes, great effort though sounded like I missed the better half. NZ just don't look tired at 75-80mins.
First 15 minutes you would have though the team in white was in their pre-season. England all at sea, no game plan, no continuity
Something tells me that playing against NZ and SA opposition in the Super Rugby is pretty decent preparation for playing English players! They're making it look so easy.
Farrell didn't last long at 10, we've had no shape
And in the lead....
Aus have looked great with ball in hand keeping the ball alive exceptionally well. England too look comfortable with the ball and are racking up the points so I guess it will be the age old question of territory and possession despite two very different styles. Lots of injuries for Aus so far too. Looked like a wash at the start but England seem favourites at the moment!
I just looked at the score and still can't believe it!
Yep and the temp is rising on the pitch, halftime could be handy for all. The missed conversions will be costly. Would be good to have at least one proper scrum at some stage.
I've been a big Brown fan, but he's poor today.
We need to KEEP THE BALL!
The Aussies shred us otherwise.
Brown showing exactly how crap he is.
is this on an iplayery type thing anywhere ?
Can't disagree namestebuzz! He who holds the ball wins the game 🙂 Brown's speed, passing against the last man and tackling have really been shown up. I know he's always been in for flak in those areas but I can't help wondering if the head knocks have taken that extra few % from his game. Not high on confidence anyway and being replaced by Goode would be a real kick in the nuts! As ever, Watson to 15 and bring in another proper speedster
No scaredy, you'll have to find a dodgy stream. And spend more time closing pop-ups than you normally would when browsing STW.

On SkyGo if you have any mates with Sky who give you their log-in.
Otherwise try cricfreetv
Farrell has had a fantastic game so far. Ford quiet again.
Burrell wasn't subbed because thay wanted ford at 10, he was subbed because they wanted Farrell at 12.
Well to be fair - Ford hasn't been on that long......
Farrell has done the basics very well. Ford has only had a few minutes. Burrell was injured...
Rescused this game from the [b]dead[/b] 26-13
@wrecker Aussie tv was showing how Farrell's error lead to Aussie try, frankly I thought Farrell was anonymous. Look at the scoreline now he's not at 10
No luck involved in that try. Aussies must be wondering whats going on!
Farrell has played a blinder. The difference between the teams is the pack at the moment.
Farrell also largely responsible for Josephs try. Hask for Yardes.
I wouldn't say Farrell is having a blinder but the pack is blowing Aus away
Cracking try that.
