I was always opposed to Savea starting at 6 vs England. He doesn’t have the strength to hit England’s big runners on the gain line. Squire at 6 (Had he played) and Sam Cane at 7 would of been the perfect loose forward set up. Also Dan Coles needed to be in that game instead of Cody Taylor. Let’s not forget Mounga early missed tackle that opened the doors for England first try. Barrett at 10 and Ben Smith ya 15 would of won the game and Hansen really spoiled those calls in the line up. Smh
@@ahconscience4279 I think you might be right. It would have given Mounga a chance off the pine to imprint on the game in the second half. I still feel Ardie should have come off the bench that game. Bender at 15. Full credit to the English, they got over the line on that blitz start. It's often how the ABs win (with a 6 min blitz of 14 points in a game).
It suxs watching our team play like this bk then but couldn't win the world cups specially 1995 all blacks 1999 and 2003 07 we had really good teams back then.. 95 96 97 my favourite all black year to watch.. ;)
I saved my pocket money for many months to buy a ticket to this game. It was so exciting to watch the Lions #10 kicking penalty after penalty, after penalty, after penalty, until I fell asleep at half time. Dad told me that I didn't miss anything, as the Lions have no courage to play good, running Rugby. I wrote to request a refund, but I never got a reply. Will it be better this year? Nah, no way.
Lions were poor I can see why NZ are not doing so well anymore The rest of the world has caught up and dont make the mistakes they used to Terrible match to watch when NZ are feeding off poor skills of the oppostion
"No way Jonathan... thats ridiculous." Classic Tana
haha Conrad Smith's hair was the highlight in this match, wow
7:47 they don't make them like Jerry Collins anymore. RIP big guy
💯🙌🏽
Yep, they definitely don't, although Ardie Savea is in the same mould.
Weird seeing some of the All Blacks who have retired recently looking so young.
Like Mealamu... 0:33 LMFAO.
IKR? Conrad Smith looks like he's just out of short trousers...
Yeah, and RP Jerry and Sione
RIP indeed. It gives me to chills to watch them play and know they aren't around any more.
Mark V Sorry, could you tell me who has passed away ?
8:01 -
"NO WAAY! That's the worst. That's RIDICULOUS!!!"
Amen, Tana.
It ain't tiddlywinks.
😂😂LMFAO!! 8:02 "No WAY Jonathan! That's the WORST! That's REDICULIOUS!"
Good ol' Legendary Tana. And.....RIP...Jerry Collins😢(From a Bok fan).
Tres palizas! Seguramente el próximo mes sucederá lo mismo...allblack son los mejores del mundo ...
Weird that Henry chose Muiliana at 13 in the 2007 RWC, when he had Conrad Smith.
Not weirder than Hansen choosing Barrett at flank against England when he had Sam Cane. Coaches mess up, I guess.
Not weirder than Hansen choosing George Bridge over Ben Smith / Rieko Ioane. Or even Laulala over Owen Franks

7:27 The greatest kick ever?
Mackem Slinger off the left foot of a tight five forward into space for a try? Not bad at all, was it
I thought that was DC for a second 😉
Dan Carter >Jonny Wilkinson
Graham Henry > Clive Woodward
Rested half the A team and still dominanted
Justin Marshall's last test match for the All Blacks.
Looking back on it some really dirty off the ball stuff going on during that game! AB's great performance though
Beautiful head of hair on Snake there
That Lions side was a joke.

Yea.
Would have loved to see Ronan O'Gara get more game time in the series. He was much better with ball in hand than Wilkinson or Jones.
So this is awkward... lol
You cant beat the abs by kicking penaltys
Imagine we make a Sanzaar team against the lions then the southern heme sphere will trash the lions
2.04 horrible ball hogging
That was one garbage Lions team! 😂🤣🤣🤣
Another Sweep for the All blacks!!! bye bye Lions

Should be the same story this year, aye! Haha.
