I’m a South African and I am proud of how they played in the finals, and I would also like to say well done to the English side, you guys were amazing. But I have been a kiwi fan and it broke my heart when they lost one game short of the finals. It felt dead for me and they World Cup felt different without the World Cup champions. Nz will forever be the best team in the world, winning 2 cups in a row. Proud of nz and my home country Africa 💚🖤
Seeing Beauden run in to shot at 10:05 incase Aaron had chosen to kick is so comforting. Knowing they're always prepared for any sort of initiative at any moment.
always proud of the boys, we tripped up this time but it will serve as motivation on the next, ultimately i think its going to be good for our mindset to chase the cup for once. We got some fire players coming through the next 4 years, the squad for France 2023 will be lit!
@@mred9361 yes the ABs will take away a lot from that loss to England so will England from that loss to SA. I want to see NZ, FRA, ENG and SA in the semis next year.
NZ just didn't play for winning the RWC 2019 I guess, they were just happy with the 3place.... Not using the players which you just mentioned, Rieko Ioane and also Sonny Bill W into the first 15 against England rise some questions for Steve Hansen and NZ team staff... imagine winning 3 RWC in row for them, how that was for the world of rugby?
I have really enjoyed these highlights videos (and the extended.ones), thank you. Very well done. I just wish there was one for the final! I was counting on it!
g davies don’t get me wrong, ALB is arguably one the best inside center in the world, however experience is a key factor when it comes to WC matches against big contenders. Goodhue was never close to his best form, and SBW should have started for his physical impact and Crotts for his outstanding def cleverness. ALB off the bench to add an impact off the bench
@@kherouaaamine6953 crotty just returned from injury and SBW is a better impact substitute. The ABs don't lack experience just look at the forward pack. I'm my opinion the youth was a fresh change for them.
I have to say, as a king country man, I've always liked Sean Maloney, but him in the box this tournament has been an absolute joy to hear. KT on the pitch also. Excellent calling by these men.
He needs a new environment. Like a new super rugby team. To help him grow as a player. Few players in Auckland blues moved south and look where they became. Highlanders will make him great again. Tony brown would help him heaps
hagakure.s81 what’s happened with they guy.I remember him constantly scoring tries.They got rid of savia and I thought all blacks where mad lol then I saw ione play and he was a beast.Seems like most New Zealand wingers don’t play well for more than 2 years lol
Crotty/sbw combo is awesome at midfield. I’ll miss watching them, as well as smith. Had they all started against England I think the result may have been different. One off load from sbw at the right time, into the right hands, can change a game alone.
Everyone complaining about the 2023 AB crushing win over Pumas, but AB crushed Wales for Bronze 🥉 in 2019, and SA crushed the Fighting Blossoms in Qtr Finals but they weren't whining about those games
@@MeanAzz_13 That's not luck though is it? Irrespective of how frequently England beat New Zealand (and I will be the first to admit it doesn't happen often), the better team on the day won. There was no luck involved. NZ were outplayed and weren't good enough in almost every facet of the game. It doesn't happen very often, but suck it up.
Fact - as a lad Aaron Smith's dad put a small circle on the side of the rubbish bin & he practiced to perfection to hit that circle. Now you know why he is perfection personified as the No1 Half Back in todays game.
Denying Bender his hat trick was criminal, Barnesy! In all seriousness though, apart from this misjudgement, he was hands down the best ref during all the tournament!
Brian Preller I disagree not relying on TMO is why many like him, he makes quick decisive judgement calls which allows free flowing rugby, relying too much on TMO can make refs indecisive
The blacks relax. Dominate. Shows esp. what happened with England in the finals, it’s such a mental game controlling the expectations in the knock out stages, when so much is at stake.
England were just better, but biggest mistake I reckon they made was picking Barrett at 6. having Cane or Todd in there instead could have made a big difference to the way England's loosies dominated
In ABs last try of 1H when to stop the Welsh player, he puts his hand on opponent's face: shouldn't that be penalised???? And if penalised, which are the options? Appreciate comments Cheers
Nothing personal against the Welsh in general, but the way THAT team has been playing over the last decade will need to change. Playing negative/opportunistic/defensive Rugby might win you a 6N title every now and then, which is certainly good, but it won't ever, ever win you anything more. We saw it during their last 3 Test tour of NZ, at the WC, recently at the 2020 6N...
Hansen should have let the experienced and test hardened players like Smith, Croty and SB play againdt the Poms. Bridge's run down the sideline against the Irish where he got mowed down had me thinking if it was Smith he would have gotten through. Anyway good to see the departing players get a run and show that they should have been given poms. Glad the Boks " steamrolled " the bloody poms or we would not have heard the last of it for 4 long bloody years.
@Joe Cool All of those opinions were technically correct for the same infringement just differing aspects of it...Number 2 was penalized for diving over the top without contact with the tackled player.Pretty straight forward penalty.
Brian Preller new coaching staff coming in, he is a lot more of an attacking coach which is exactly what we need, exciting times coming up and some great youth coming through.
Sam Kane & Ardie Savea should've started against England as they did against Ireland...and definitely Ben Smith should've atleast been in 23....just a broken all black fan myself with random thoughts !
Hats off to all those legends ending their careers. You've been a joy to watch over the years!

all planned, best penalty I've ever seen
What a Coach

Joe moody ran so fast It was like he was chasing someone that stole his pie.
8:45 watch in slow motion, amazing line he took
tunnel
BS its the king !
Please upload the whole game!!! Sonny Bill and Ben Smith contributed a very large portion to the AB's win.
SBW & Crotts should have been the starting midfield in my opinion, experience and complimentary skills
No way you drop Leinnart Brown. He was superb!
g davies don’t get me wrong, ALB is arguably one the best inside center in the world, however experience is a key factor when it comes to WC matches against big contenders.

@@kherouaaamine6953 crotty just returned from injury and SBW is a better impact substitute. The ABs don't lack experience just look at the forward pack. I'm my opinion the youth was a fresh change for them.
Ben Smith reminded everyone exactly why he should've been starting in that semi-final against England.
@Leddie Nickoson Huh? Are you claiming that a conspiracy was at play behind the scenes?
Fresh take, dude. Super edgy, too.
Honestly bro I’m still guttered about the rubbish selection until this day 😂

Still pisses me off to this day that nz didn't start ben smith and the other experienced players against england.
11:25 the body language says it all. New Zealand briskly jogging into the changing rooms while the Welsh sluggishly strolled in.
Great match I might even say I liked it much more than the final. Well done to both teams🏴🤝🇳🇿👋👋👋
It's almost embarrassing how easily Ben Smith breaks through Welsh defense
Hansen should've played him against England, smh.
Low Gunfire he’s a glider lol I don’t even think he’s that fast but he’s very good at gliding past opponents lol

@@shadowbanned5164 Just saying... England got thrashed, just like they did to us kiwis
Strange to laugh and make jokes about a team who beat you. Concentrate on your own team's problems rather than take a few cheap shots.
5:09 Welsh halfback got absolutely smoked.
The knock on in the tmo review, 47th minute of game, was it from SBW pass or Ioane?
props to the commentary team
Lovely play both sides.
I am
ben smith was lethal in 2018, imagine if he had maintained it another year
Has there ever been a passer off the base more precise than Aaron Smith?
Another 4 years of scintillating NZ/All Black rugby ahead, no doubt.
Well if you go on the history it won't be scintillating at all,more likely one sided.
just putting this out there , did we throw the semi?
The blacks relax. Dominate. Shows esp. what happened with England in the finals, it’s such a mental game controlling the expectations in the knock out stages, when so much is at stake.
Wales are good at rugby but the blacks were just a better side of the compition good on you New Zealand 🇳🇿
Ohh come on Where are the FINAL highlights?
Hansen getting the plaudits he deserved, gotta be (ditto Gatland) in the top 5 or 6 coaches ever
awesome try guys - & what a finish Joe Moody no1
FULL GAME PLEASE O BEG YOU GOOD PEOPLE
Those feather touch highly accurate passes at around 20:00 are just exquisite

Why would you post a final score in the title?
Spoiler alert at the very least would be helpful

@Henri Panapa lol nearly 2 years later.
@Henri Panapa haha fair play.
awww wow what a fend Ben Smith - in the moosh - gone
How could they lose in semi ? From a french fan.
Dead Man Walking they did change the back line to get tackle effectively but things gone wrong, England was countered Abs well
England were just better, but biggest mistake I reckon they made was picking Barrett at 6. having Cane or Todd in there instead could have made a big difference to the way England's loosies dominated
Even the best have an off day occasionally or else the ABs would win all the time
How did Retallick get that MoTM......
SBW, where where u against England?
The bench
dont even know how to spell were.
Damage was done by the time he came off the bench. He did his best.
he's the best bench player always been his position since this world cup
Richie McCaw made Hansen Famous.
What happen to the Anton Lienert-Brown Eye........that was the funny part....lol
Who's the Ozzie announcer? Hes AWESOME!!!!!

In ABs last try of 1H when to stop the Welsh player, he puts his hand on opponent's face: shouldn't that be penalised????
And if penalised, which are the options?
Appreciate comments
Cheers
Perfectly legal...it's called a hand-off which happens when players try to tackle too high.
Too late for that
It was legal because the arm was already extended when he pushed his face. If he had extended his arm to hit him in the face it would be a penalty.
I love Ben smith
All Blacks need toughness. This isn't Super rugby. Hanson's squads are speed and finesse. Can't win a WRC when even England said they would prevail.
Nothing personal against the Welsh in general, but the way THAT team has been playing over the last decade will need to change.

All blacks are the best of all the rugby teams🤔
Wales will never beat the AllBlacks. They prefer the gym rather skills
what did he say at 8:06
too many broken tackles on the all blacks part, they need to work on that
9:59 why the penalty?
Fredrik Zhang not letting go
Owens Straight off his feet
also not supporting his body weight

This should’ve been the team against England.
I still didn't think NZ played at their best for this game. Or are my standards just too high?
Yes
They gave it all they had. Just didn't have enough when it came to England. ABs will always be the true champions, stats don't lie.
Rieko as gone bad.Trying to hard to impress.Just needed him to play like how he used to play and we would of won it
Wales having their arses handed to them is always a pleasant sight
As above fuckwit
@Scott Johnson as above,mong
After watching all the games, i still think the All Blacks should've won the cup. sport really is unfair at times.
Yes they were better than SA overall but slipped up which happens
HI MAN WHO IS THE BEST RUGBY PLAYER
?
Ben Smith
Rieko had a shocker lol
I was at this game and the all blacks played much better than rhey did vs england and holy japan what a place
