    The Kiwis first game under the new coach McGuire & already they look 10 times better than the Kidwell coached team.

    Yeah I thought the kiwis would get steamrolled, but they are looking the better team. Both sides pretty sloppy in this heat though

    When the Kiwis were attacking & it got to the last tackle where were our halves. This is where we're going to lose this test because although K-Nik & TMM are good players they have got shit for brains when it comes down to leading the team around. One of them should of demanded the ball to try & get a repeat set. This doesn't happen & England march down the field & score a try.

    NAS playing big minutes. Hasn't been off yet, take note Bellamy. (Actually just off on 55 mins)

    Think DWZ has been Kiwi's best so far. Whitehead and Roby for England.

    Kiwis falling apart, look knackered. Not happy with RFM playing the full game...

    Re the All Blacks - Shannon Frizell looks nothing like Tyson Frizell.

    Yep, halves had a couple of moments of individual flair in the kiwis but Luke controlled the game better than they did.

    I thought Luke, NAS and Taupau in his first stint were great, Tapine played well too. DWZ best of the backs with Maumalo being the worst.

    Bombed too many chances with poor passes or simple errors and let in too many tries through soft defence.

    Kiwis could've won it if they wanted it, England definitely wanted it more.

    Yeah, I noticed that. They may not be full brothers, Im not sure. Regardless, Shannon was born in Tonga and grew up there. I believe he played goal-keeper for Tonga and then played Rugby Union for Tonga U20 before heading to NZ to take up pro contracts (gutted for him last night that his try was disallowed!!). Tyson on the other hand was born 3 years earlier in OZ and grew up there.

    Should be a straight swap, you'd think!
    We still have to wait and see if there are any injuries from origin and then see who gets rested for next week too!

    RFM broken hand sucks as an owner but I also own Martin so it's both bad & good.

    I kept him too, but surprisingly few of the top 10 teams did. It would be a huge bonus for me even if he just plays a week or two.

    Was going to use martin to bring farah in, if Martin wasn't named. Looks like that idea is on the back burner for now.
