No, the players have lost it. Fucking idiots.
You don't think the ridiculous card calling had anything to do with how messy and heated this game has become?
Two nailed-on red cards. Two blatant professional fouls for the yellows.

And the game was a fucking mess almost from the start. The ref isn't responsible for the players' lack of discipline and all the shit passing and decision making.

You think not carding cardable offences would help their behaviour?
Yes. Let the players sort it out. Worked in the past

Did it? Or did we just see even more bullshit going on, until it got so heated that punches were thrown?

Game definitely ruined by the red cards. No excitement once they happened, pointless even watching after...

Wish we'd seen more of Ikira. He looked well up for it. Others not so much. I was not happy with Rieko. The two Sams and Ardie carrying the team.

Ioane was decent. Good line out steal.

Have any All Blacks other than Richie Mo’unga enhanced their reputations tonight?
Mo’unga lucky not to be playing imo. This game has been messy.

Akira looked lively for his cameo.
Hard to judge Akira from 29 minutes only but one run particularly stood out. Pretty unlucky debuts for him and Jordan.

To go from the biggest ever win to a loss in a week is on coaching and selection.

I'm the one who enjoyed the sporting event we both just watched. You're the one who apparently no longer enjoys it, find another sport.

Pretty good effort from the Wobs. Can hardly argue it didn't even out with the cards.

Thinking the All Blacks needed to call in the subs a bit earlier might have been helpful.

I thought until he got carded that Barrett was MOTM.

If the All Blacks went for goal at halftime we would have won.

Was Laumape on the field?

Perenara was made to look ordinary by Webers 5 minute cameo.

Jordie is a good fullback but his ball security is poor at times.

Akira was decent until unfortunately hooked.

Scott Barrett is a great player but hes been done now a few times for silly stuff at test level.

Sevu Reece flatters to deceive.

Australia are shite cattle being well coached and NZ have great cattle being poorly coached.

Is Laumape fully fit?

Shame about Jordan's knock - both his direct rivals did not have good games. Jordie missed tackles, looked slow, missed high balls, turned over a lot of ball. Reece's top end pace was a bit of an issue and while he's always going to beat defenders he did struggle in defence and gave away a couple of penalties to boot.
