    I don't think ABs have solved anything. They don't have a settled back three. They don't have clarity at 9. They have a serious problem at 10 with a kicker/play making conundrum as Barret is like Manie. They can't decide who their best wings are and they really need to leave Jordan at 15. If they lose three games in November Robertson is in real trouble.

    For the first time in a LONG time, we just watched an All Black team that were trying to hold on to their lead over the Wallabies. After a very poor start with little connection in defence, the second half was a great display by the Wallabies. Kellaway played well as did McReight and Wilson to name a few, Valentino was quiet I thought and as for Nick White - can we pleeeease get a cork in his gob, and teach him not to kick the ball away unless there is someone with a chance to contest it.
