:lol: Hardly an advert for entertaining rugby. I have a dog in the fight and it is looking like a cripple fight. NZ rugby looks like chess versus checkers.

Ok you don't have the wet weather skills, take the points. There is a reason good sides (Saders)do it, creates it's own pressure and the game can be all over taking points on offer.

Any chance y’all could switch the scores around up top of screen ? Reds are on left , their score should be on left

Sorry to be a pain

But this is where the charm is. Aotearoa rugby has been good quality Rugby and intense watching. This is just some guys hiffing the ball around in the rain, not taking anything too seriously.

There are some good players out there. You just feel the coaches have given them some daft instructions.

That's the game, I reckon. Reds very lackluster. I get the feeling Brad Thorn must be a pretty shit coach.
