Who's suggesting the ABs will take much from this other than a clinical win by a surprisingly large margin? It was a pleasing result, but... next!

That was a good win against the worst Italian team I’ve seen. However bad Italy were they still showed that NZ are fragile at the breakdown and can be opened up in the backs. There is nothing in that game that will concern Ireland, Sefrica or even France. If anything it’ll just assure them that their game plan is more than enough to smash the All Blacks off the park.

:lol: :lol: no you don’t.

The big teams won’t let us play that game.

It was a case of a broken clock telling the right time.

Oh come on.
You put 100 points on a 6N powerhouse.
France could only beat Italy by 5 points and Ireland beat them by 13.

Clear favorites.
