It adds a little something extra to our Rugby World Cup 2023 Experience. Really enjoying it 👌🏾 I’m a Springbok all the way!! Happy France won. Great assessment for those of us who missed some of it due to loadshedding in South Africa. You’re helping to fill in some critical gaps ❤
Spot on. They were limp. Listless. Indecisive. The ABs were my number 2 team but for the rest of the RWC I'm rooting for my poor, cashless Namibian friends....
So even the Haka seemed as if they were just going through the motions... They seem to be playing without a proper plan. Then when the All Blacks starts to chase the game, they don't play like a team anymore and individuals try to go at it alone and the Frenchies capitalised on that too get the last try

Love your channel mate. I always look forward to one of your videos. You & Two Cents Rugby are the best Rugby channels on CZcams. Imagine if Italy beats New Zealand. 😳 Italy have almost beaten everybody.
@Villafarrell Yep, if All Blacks play bad with a bit of luck I believe Italy can take it. New Zealand are not the Powerhouse they once was & they look like a team that a good Italian performance could upset.
They did mention on commentary that the TMO were checking some instances and cleared it, the lack of replays i believe were due to not hold up the game.
Yes and I SA vs Scotland game today there should have been a red card for SA and two yellows for Scotland missed in the 1st half alone 😮 I didn't see second half .
Disagree, we should build our domestic competition to be strong as well as club rugby. The Rugby Union have focused on the top level for too bloody long. Foster is not a good coach. Look at his record at domestic level. Competent as an assistant but lacking as the main man.
Sooo proud of my team even though they're missing quite a few major players, even if the first half was nail bitting I'm happy about their comitment, and they didn't make too many faults which is great under that pressure from the ABs, thanks again for your lovely breakdowns 💖
NZ are an ordinary team currently, but might improve as the tournament progresses. They've lost to Argentina. Ireland twice. Boks and now France. They were sin binned against Boks. They've seen reds never previously encountered. It's down to improved cam technology. Side swipes, off the ball incidents, elbows bla de bla .....for years they got away with.

I thought the both sides struggled with kicking out in the first half. We didn't adjust in the 2nd half. Lineout was non-existent. We held up well in the yellow card but discipline killed it. Honestly great tactical game from the french with the penalty kicks.
I predicted the french would keep the ball in play, and sucked the ABs into it. 2nd half france drove up the centrefield and got the kicks at breakdown. Fair do, Sam was missed. Why didnt barrett go flanker?
@@ericdavison6186 I personally don't think vaai wasn't a problem at 6. Barrett doesn't have the speed to keep up at 6. I think our problem was the difference in height between De Groot and Nepo Laulala. De Groot couldn't bind on Antonio due to the difference. But it's just a theory
What I loved to see is watching this game like I was watching the Heineken Cup final from earlier in the year Leinster v La Rochelle. Leinster scored twice within the first 5 or 6 minutes, the first try was also around the first minute or so. Then La Rochelle stepped up and went on to win the game 27-26. This felt a bit like that. ABs scored a try within the 2nd minute of the match and went on to lose the match 27-13 this time. It just seemed fascinating. As a Bok supporter I am a little nervous. I didn't think I would say this but I would prefer to play ABs on the final as opposed to France. Having said that, I am a Bok fan through-and-through but if for some super sad reason Springboks don't win this, I am then rooting for France. Their players are on another level. If by some coincidence France play Springboks in the final, it will be a fantastic match to watch.
ABs suffering from players not facing SA teams week in, week out. The pressure from SA, sharpened speed, accuracy of the AB attack and made kicking game better. Ever since the split AB rugby has declined at intl level. SA, on the other hand, moved to a league that doesn't have the same attacking prowess, giving SA space to practice and develop attacking game.
Lol, no. I would remind you that an Irish team won the URC. Leinster dominated the league stage of the competition. Using a crap NZ team to big up SA is pathetic. Let's see how SA do against Scotland and Ireland. Then come back and regale us all with these stories of SA prowess.
@ciaranoconnor4027 What's pathetic is your knee-jerk reaction. Go back and read what I said. I didn't say SA teams were demolishing NH teams. All I said was that they (NH teams) don't have the same attacking prowess of NZ. Thus giving our players more opportunity to practice and better their attack. SA players are the stone on which NZ players sharpen their spear and refine their tactics. Wildcard alludes to this dynamic being true without spelling it out. When he talks about how in Super Rugby, kicking the ball is frowned upon, and teams try running from deep all the time. That's exactly how SA was able to maintain pressure at Twickenham, and that's exactly what we saw in this game. Bad habits from not playing SA teams. Even their lack of imagination when dealing with a strong defense is indicative of this fact.
@@Slayer-kx5fz Yes but that's all pish mate and doesn't stand up to introspection. Had you said "well maybe NZ should stop playing touch rugby in their major league and passing it off as rugby union" I would have listened. However, you did not. You're just spouting fan boy drivel. So, off you pop.
@@edwardmurray2139 TMO happened... the refs don't have the excuses anymore to ignore obvious law breaks (very tempted to say cheat, but I'll stay civil)
That score was more correctly 34:7 but for that dropped try by the French winger and the 2nd AB try coming from a fwd pass. This game should warn the rest that France (and Scotland who pushed them recently) are going to be hard to beat.
New Zealand don't know how to play modern rugby. It's all kicking, defensive pressure and explosive attack from turnovers / loose ball. Also, the heat drained NZ. They were not prepared for it. The URC was played in similar conditions with regular water breaks. The northern hemisphere teams and the Springboks have been conditioning for this world cup for years.
Damn modern Rugby is the complete opposite from modern Football. In football, people favour possession and attacking and call defensive discipline and counter attacks outdated. I think each decade, it just sways from one side to another.
When Telea scored that first try my god I wasn't confident for the rest of the game lmao (same for the 2nd one) 😆🥶but the Boys managed that game like pros. Even though they didn't play that well (especially in the first half), they somehow controlled that 2nd half perfectly. It give me hope for the rest of the tournament. Aldritt & Mauvaka were great...unlike the refereeing who was weird with some decisions. Can't wait to see the rest of the competition now. Really Proud Tonight lol. I hope Marchand is ok though.
Nonsense - The refereeing wasn’t weird he was spot on. Referee was setting the standard for the tournament as had been discussed by World Rugby. It was a great referee performance. You clearly don’t understand the laws 😂
Hope we will get more replays during the game. Production was horrible with time management (not stopping the clock in first half when ref says time off), scoreboard (0-7 with no conversion and same at the end with 29-13 instead of 27), no time for the yellow card and no replays of interesting things. Ioane pass was clearly forward on the second try. So obvious that the French stop to play (not a good call from them but still). And a try was not allowed for France for a Penaud knock on but on the replay it seems to not touch the ball, looks like it was only the AB player, needed a bit a check their. Overall French were feeling the home event pressure and AB did not exploit that enough in first half. Second half was not perfect but the French looks so confident^^
NZ started each half so strong. But lacked the legs or energy at the end of each half. I think the heat, the kicking, the injuries and the constant pressure from France really got to them. They just felt flat. They also lacked bench impact. The substitutes came on and looked the same or worse. The scrum was dominated by France. The maul infringements were continuing from the SA game, i was surprised France opted for kicks instead of line outs given how dominant they looked. Well done to France. Great kicking and control. Also brilliant under the high ball. Played well despite injuries before and during the game. Going to be a tough team to beat this WC, especially with that crowd support. France look solid, and good enough to build momentum going into a QTR.
The AB's are now suffering with penalties against them. For the last 15 years the AB's have gotten away with murder at the breakdown, their poor discipline is now being monitored.
France used the same scoring technique as against the Australians, take every little point you can. By keeping the score board ticking over and having the opposition having to restart every so often, just plays into the psychology of the game. Also, with the heat (around 30c) it made sense to run the least as possible (hence the kicking game). The All Blacks chose to run a lot, but that just tired them. And so, in the last quarter when the French went up a gear, the All Blacks had not much left in the tank. The French did seem rather rattled in the first few minutes, but overall they orchestrated this win to perfection. It was the running game from their own 22 and getting nowhere that eventually cost the Kiwis the game.
Firstly, congrats France (the host nation) for the win. Since France played exceptionally well. As Ardie Savea said during the End match Post Interview ''Even though we have lost tonight, there is still a war to be won!'' The only player that played exceptionally well for my home country was player No.11 Mark Talea, as Mark scored the only 2 tries. Bauden Barrett did some unnecessary kicks. Like when The All Blacks kick the high ball our pressure attackers were poor. Because when the French did their highball thier pressure attack to us, they had like 3 or 4 players all willing to pressure attack the All Blacks. The 1st half, I'll rank it a 7/10. But I'll rank the 2nd half a 5/10.
Wild, a few questions mate. 1. Were the All Blacks, just poor, beaten up team when facing France or did they just run out of ideas hence their loss? 2. Do you blame the loss on Super Rugby? and if so is it because the South African teams have left Super Rugby? 3. Is the All Blacks basically broken after the massive loss to the Springboks again could stand up to France? Thankyou for answering.
I think the preperation is bad. The all blacka didn want to play the kicking game but was forces to do so and did poorly. Super rugby had some to do with it cos they bash kicking rugby. Dont think the all blacks were broken by the springboks their prep work was to blame
Disappointing how poor ABs were as a team despite some individual brilliances. France were solid and effective but definitely not their best game either. Probably just first match jitters.
1. France v poor and nervous first half but ABs not good enough to capitalize. 2.Julien Marchard could be massive loss especially with Boks playing 7:1 bench 3. ABs need DMac’s kicking game. Must be on their bench
Bougaritt from La Rochelle is just as good as Merchand.Been one of the best players in the top14 and Heineken Cup in the last 3 years.France will be just fine
Il porte le maillot des AB, mais c'est un Australien, d'ailleurs il y a le drapeau Australien derrière lui. Le drapeau néo-zélandais a des étoiles rouges.
Even though the French were just a little better than the ABs tonight, they also didn't have their best game. They do have a bunch of amazing players, though. The All blacks still look shell-shocked from the Boks game.
NZ are an ordinary team currently, but might improve as the tournament progresses. They've lost to Argentina. Ireland twice. Boks and now France. They were sin binned against Boks.

Wildcard, the Springboks tenderised the All Blacks for the French. I wanted the All Blacks to win. From SA Cape Town. The heat is going to be a factor.
Ian Foster will go down in the World Cup era as our worst AB coach. Tupu Vai'i at number 6? The man has barely played 80 mins in that position in his career! Aimless kicking that eventually became monotonous. Beauden Barrett is not the player he once was. Let's not talk about the error rate. This AB team also love collecting yellow cards.
you look angry to me man, I have to go see another one of your videos about the ABs if it's due to yesterday's match or not... 😂 but in any case your technical analysis is really interesting
They did mention on commentary that the TMO were checking some instances and cleared it, the lack of replays i believe were due to not hold up the game.
ABs missed Jordi Barrett's long kicking and his presence in the midfield. Also, this game shows why Mr. Consistent Sam Cane is so important. We just missed that player that does the basics well
BS on Cane him and Dalton are nothing special. Foster should be flying Ethan Blackadder in stat to replace both of them. Fact is the coaching and selection of this team is chithouse. Ethan blackadder should of been starting at 7 since 2021 when he basically blew the Boks apart single handed. We will just have to wait until next year when Razor returns some common sense to this AB team. Theres no way this team gets past the quarters.
Go France!!! The All Blacks cannot get away with their shananagans anymore. Ref realised they are looking bad when those guys intimidate them. Lambs now. 😂
The All Blacks need more grunt up front. They're losing the collisions, and therefore, they're always on the back foot. Even Savea was getting manhandled, and he's got enormous power, but he's too small as an eightman. He should be playing as openside towards the ball. The rest of their backrow is really missing a Kaino and Reid type player. Play Barret at blindside with with Frizzell at 8 when he's back from injury. In this game, only Scott Barrett crossed the gainline. Taukei'aho should also be starting... you gonna struggle in this RWC if you're getting bullied up front.
Look at the comments sections after these All bLack loses. 'so proud of my AB's' - 'great game AB's we will destroy them next time. This is the modern era where losing is ok and it is just a game.
Both teams played kickety kick kick kick yesterday - I really hope the pundits pan them for this like they did the Bokke 2 years ago. Let them Have it for kicking so much.
First half was a bit stiff from France, but boy did they pick up in second half, where they never showed panic, but a confidence that they'd win in the end. AB too undisciplined, underwhelming kicking, no clear cut gameplan...they need to pull themselves together. France were resilient, pushed again and again, and it peyed in the end. Great way to open the WC from France Can't wait for England-Argentina!
Hi Wildkard. I felt France won the kicking-for-territory game. Kept NZ mostly penned in their half. Dominated up front. Especially at scrum-time. Slotted crucial penalty kicks. And got the all important bounce of the ball for a match-clinching try. With ten to five minutes to go I still felt NZ could sneak a victory though.
second AB try isn't valid, it's a clear forward pass, the save to prevent Penaud's try was miraculous, and the French were getting stronger, their bench is insane, so could have been also 34-8..
All blacks just rusty and maybe they were under the pump to perform but they will advance to the next round regardless of this game and they will have more time together to get used to playing as a team, they're still a force to be reckoned with and still have a chance, too early to write them off.
Nope the score flattered the AB,france in total control second half ,AB 2nd try should hav been refused,cant get more forward pass,thx God didn't matter at the end
No the entire second half was ridiculous. Totally aimless kicking. It was working in the first half but france figured it out in the second. What I dont understand is if we are playing whitelock why not try atleast once for field position and a lineout in france's half. That second half was just unbelievable with the constant up and under and no other plan at all. IMO Beauden and Will Jordan should be droped for the next big game on this performance alone. Im fked if Know why Jordan didnt think he deserved the yellow was just constantly shaking his head about it. Dude's delusional or poorly coached. He was actually damn lucky he didnt get a red because he did it two or three times. (not that it would of made any difference because that game was done the moment he got the yellow).
I thought the game was a little scrappy. The kiwis looked very ordinary just hapless, no clear gameplan and a lot of kicking and funny enough they complain about the boks kicking game. I predicted that just 1 loss and they'll become flustered. Yhe 1 try was a forward pass. The scoreline could've also been 40 - 5 really. Im waiting for the breakdown😅😅
Yeah I dont see the point in him or whitelock if they insist on not playing for field position and lineouts. Might aswell play Dmac and Barrett fulltime if thats our gameplan. Ethan blackadder needs to be flown over to replace Cane and Dalton too but I know that'll never happen with this idiot Foster running this clown show. Ethan blackadder should of been our starting 7 since 2021.
The ABs are not familiar with the type of pressure that teams are able to exert on them. They're struggling to find ways to exit or setup their attack. They need to shore up their pack and concentrate on their way of playing. Best form of defense is ATTACK
The ABs did not have a very good exit plan and were playing in the wrong areas. They seemed to lack a Plan B when plan A didn't work. This was exposed against the Boks! To be honest, I was rooting for the ABs but they never played very well due to the pressure by France. Again, same thing the Boks did against them. Ramos is excellent from the left but can be a bit ropey on the right when kicking for poles. De Groot looked like he was boring in instead of scrumming straight. Great review mate!

you better buy a French jersey because you're going to see them leading the race for quite a while! ^^
French out in QF end of their race
lol i saw in the comments 40+ for NZ against France ...know lets see you where your at after the QF^^ @@JohnWick-nm6vo
you wer smoking wen you saw that ....did you also see wer I predicted the exact tactical game abs would play@@shishkinekavinsky
Im trying it not for sale here in sydney
Yes that's whats my thoughts all the years thy cheated I think the refs deside to watch them
Fair
New Zealand don't know how to play modern rugby. It's all kicking, defensive pressure and explosive attack from turnovers / loose ball. Also, the heat drained NZ. They were not prepared for it. The URC was played in similar conditions with regular water breaks. The northern hemisphere teams and the Springboks have been conditioning for this world cup for years.
Damn modern Rugby is the complete opposite from modern Football. In football, people favour possession and attacking and call defensive discipline and counter attacks outdated. I think each decade, it just sways from one side to another.
Rugby will be more defensive in rwc matches to come cos the defense is just too good at this level.
@@Wildkard for sure. the ABs will still destroy a team that has a flawed defense or let's them get the upper hand at the breakdown.
When Telea scored that first try my god I wasn't confident for the rest of the game lmao (same for the 2nd one) 😆🥶but the Boys managed that game like pros. Even though they didn't play that well (especially in the first half), they somehow controlled that 2nd half perfectly. It give me hope for the rest of the tournament. Aldritt & Mauvaka were great...unlike the refereeing who was weird with some decisions.
Can't wait to see the rest of the competition now. Really Proud Tonight lol. I hope Marchand is ok though.
Nonsense - The refereeing wasn’t weird he was spot on. Referee was setting the standard for the tournament as had been discussed by World Rugby. It was a great referee performance. You clearly don’t understand the laws 😂
All blacks played for 2mins then they forgot how to for 78mins
@@diepadda I only said that only some decisions were weird not the whole match. Learn to read before acting like a douche.
@@Wildkard Yeah it's crazy. If it wasn't for Telea, the ABs could have been 0'ed when les Bleus really didn't play that good overall. Scary prospect.
vinaka All Blacks congratulation France 👏
No confidence in a foster led NZ...being back geaham henry!!!..now there's a kiwi legend..even in loss i still had 100% absolute faith in graham..
This is one of the most talented AB team and some how they play so badly
Ok now we know who wants this Cup
Eddie jones
I’d like to see Argentina get up…
👍
Jeff Wilson, “ This is as good as France can play”, just happens to be better than AB’s……….
Brilliant! 😅
Cant wait
50 METRE BOX KICK!! Love the content and analysis dude!!
Thanks mate!
To all the guys who wrote off the French. Here 🥖
Who wrote off france 🤣 probly only the breakdown pannel
Time for Italy to make an historical first ever win against New Zealand in this world cup🎉
No please no!😭
Hope we will get more replays during the game. Production was horrible with time management (not stopping the clock in first half when ref says time off), scoreboard (0-7 with no conversion and same at the end with 29-13 instead of 27), no time for the yellow card and no replays of interesting things.
Ioane pass was clearly forward on the second try. So obvious that the French stop to play (not a good call from them but still). And a try was not allowed for France for a Penaud knock on but on the replay it seems to not touch the ball, looks like it was only the AB player, needed a bit a check their.
Overall French were feeling the home event pressure and AB did not exploit that enough in first half. Second half was not perfect but the French looks so confident^^
Yeah the french tv production is extremely bad, its always the case.
@@Wildkard i saw that is world rugby who is in charge so, apologies to TF1 who has the right in France.
NZ started each half so strong. But lacked the legs or energy at the end of each half. I think the heat, the kicking, the injuries and the constant pressure from France really got to them. They just felt flat. They also lacked bench impact. The substitutes came on and looked the same or worse. The scrum was dominated by France. The maul infringements were continuing from the SA game, i was surprised France opted for kicks instead of line outs given how dominant they looked.
Well done to France. Great kicking and control. Also brilliant under the high ball. Played well despite injuries before and during the game. Going to be a tough team to beat this WC, especially with that crowd support. France look solid, and good enough to build momentum going into a QTR.
Yeah the heat is a thing i think the french want the 3 cos that.
Loved the SA ref. Kept the game flowing. Jaco Peyper he is not keen to red card players
He learned that from johnny sexton
All Blacks = over rated cheats! I have been saying it for years! Love it! IMO they only won 2 world cups, 2011 was bought! Well done France! 🤣🤣🤣
Ps. boks still beat the cheats by a higher margin. Just saying... 🤣🤣🤣
Haven't resorted to poison yet bokkies steroid munchers
@russellturner1909 lol! Your comment made my tummy feel runny. Cope harder, little fella 😂
@@Alias-gy3tz In fairness second try was forward all day and deliberate knock on stopping a certain try, the score flatters the AB's
@@iwazhere7077 Must be that 💩hole you people live in 😎😎😎
Rieko ioane pass was miles forward
Who knows....
New Zealand had about five minutes of game plan. Tactically deficient.
Yup
France shut out that ball playing channel same that SA did to AB. We’ll done AB, congratulations France.
100%
The AB's are now suffering with penalties against them. For the last 15 years the AB's have gotten away with murder at the breakdown, their poor discipline is now being monitored.
15 years of video evidence
The AB defence was a shambles...never seen them loose structure like that
France used the same scoring technique as against the Australians, take every little point you can. By keeping the score board ticking over and having the opposition having to restart every so often, just plays into the psychology of the game. Also, with the heat (around 30c) it made sense to run the least as possible (hence the kicking game). The All Blacks chose to run a lot, but that just tired them. And so, in the last quarter when the French went up a gear, the All Blacks had not much left in the tank. The French did seem rather rattled in the first few minutes, but overall they orchestrated this win to perfection. It was the running game from their own 22 and getting nowhere that eventually cost the Kiwis the game.
Good point with the heat and the kicking game more efficient
Firstly, congrats France (the host nation) for the win. Since France played exceptionally well. As Ardie Savea said during the End match Post Interview ''Even though we have lost tonight, there is still a war to be won!''
The only player that played exceptionally well for my home country was player No.11 Mark Talea, as Mark scored the only 2 tries.
Bauden Barrett did some unnecessary kicks. Like when The All Blacks kick the high ball our pressure attackers were poor. Because when the French did their highball thier pressure attack to us, they had like 3 or 4 players all willing to pressure attack the All Blacks.
The 1st half, I'll rank it a 7/10. But I'll rank the 2nd half a 5/10.
I was wondering why Faingaanuku didn't start but pheww, now i understand. You have even better , what a player, what a threat, this Talea.
yes... you will lose the "war".
France played meh OKish only slightly better than the woeful ABs
@@Alias-gy3tz😂
Great review ryan. I think all blacks needs to work on the kicking game or work on counter attack. Now they are not sure what to do for both
Wild, a few questions mate.
1. Were the All Blacks, just poor, beaten up team when facing France or did they just run out of ideas hence their loss?
2. Do you blame the loss on Super Rugby? and if so is it because the South African teams have left Super Rugby?
3. Is the All Blacks basically broken after the massive loss to the Springboks again could stand up to France?
Thankyou for answering.
sorry, Couldn't stand up to France
I think the preperation is bad. The all blacka didn want to play the kicking game but was forces to do so and did poorly. Super rugby had some to do with it cos they bash kicking rugby. Dont think the all blacks were broken by the springboks their prep work was to blame
It was sweltering conditions on the night. Unusually so. Dont think either side prepared for it
Thats true
This is what happens when you pick "versatility" over form players
This is what happens when you are forced to play within the rules...
True on both comments.
☕☕
cant wait for the Springboks!! 🇿🇦
Disappointing how poor ABs were as a team despite some individual brilliances. France were solid and effective but definitely not their best game either. Probably just first match jitters.
Could be worse. The top teams are very close in skill levels at this stage
The thing is the all blacks had them there were grinding them down they barrett goes back to kicking away it was a very winnable game
1. France v poor and nervous first half but ABs not good enough to capitalize.
2.Julien Marchard could be massive loss especially with Boks playing 7:1 bench
3. ABs need DMac’s kicking game. Must be on their bench
Bougaritt from La Rochelle is just as good as Merchand.Been one of the best players in the top14 and Heineken Cup in the last 3 years.France will be just fine
Dmac might be a solution but he has very little game time
Monsieur, je sais ce que représente ce jeu pour votre pays et vous remercie pour votre objectivité ! Long life for the ABs !
Il porte le maillot des AB, mais c'est un Australien, d'ailleurs il y a le drapeau Australien derrière lui. Le drapeau néo-zélandais a des étoiles rouges.
I am australian 👍👍 not kiwi 🙏🙏
Even though the French were just a little better than the ABs tonight, they also didn't have their best game. They do have a bunch of amazing players, though. The All blacks still look shell-shocked from the Boks game.
Both teams have room to improve
NZ are an ordinary team currently, but might improve as the tournament progresses.
They've lost to Argentina. Ireland twice. Boks and now France.
They were sin binned against Boks. They've seen reds never previously encountered.
It's down to improved cam technology. Side swipes, off the ball incidents, elbows bla de bla .....for years they got away with.
Bordering on cheating and angry thuggery.
Exposed mate.
France beat NZ twice in a row....
@@NB-yc1ro I'd forgotten that so it's even worse than I thought ☺
I agree I wish we still had Israel Dagg
Dag was so good
Wildcard, the Springboks tenderised the All Blacks for the French. I wanted the All Blacks to win. From SA Cape Town. The heat is going to be a factor.
🤭🤭🤭tenderised nice one
AB’s early entry in the line out has come to the officials attention !
😧
Ian Foster will go down in the World Cup era as our worst AB coach. Tupu Vai'i at number 6? The man has barely played 80 mins in that position in his career! Aimless kicking that eventually became monotonous. Beauden Barrett is not the player he once was. Let's not talk about the error rate. This AB team also love collecting yellow cards.
Fossie has showed the world hes not fit for purpose...
you look angry to me man, I have to go see another one of your videos about the ABs if it's due to yesterday's match or not... 😂
but in any case your technical analysis is really interesting
Im always angry thats the secret
They did mention on commentary that the TMO were checking some instances and cleared it, the lack of replays i believe were due to not hold up the game.
Thats fine with me
The left hand Kiwi prop just got totally OWNED by his opponent. Hence collapse.. hence penalty.
Yeah
The all blacks should have put Joe Smith in full charge before world cup 😮😮 Foster is a dead man walking since Ireland beat them at home 🏡 😑
Just a warm up game for France .
Its 35 degrees so pretty warm already
Congratulations to France for the win. Tha ABs have got issues with their discipline they need to sort out.
A comment I've been looking for.
Always decipline issue
ABs missed Jordi Barrett's long kicking and his presence in the midfield.
Also, this game shows why Mr. Consistent Sam Cane is so important. We just missed that player that does the basics well
BS on Cane him and Dalton are nothing special. Foster should be flying Ethan Blackadder in stat to replace both of them. Fact is the coaching and selection of this team is chithouse. Ethan blackadder should of been starting at 7 since 2021 when he basically blew the Boks apart single handed. We will just have to wait until next year when Razor returns some common sense to this AB team. Theres no way this team gets past the quarters.
Is Blackadder even healthy enough to play?
I think blackadder is just ok now. But yes blackadder is awesome. Also a good 3rd lineout option
Go France!!! The All Blacks cannot get away with their shananagans anymore. Ref realised they are looking bad when those guys intimidate them. Lambs now. 😂
Seems this trend of ABs actually being pinged for their cynical tactics may in fact be a permanent change. And man, want an impact.
☕☕☕☕
AB's what haka will be used next? That "paca.....or whatever you call it😂
Probably make a 3rd newer one
The All Blacks need more grunt up front. They're losing the collisions, and therefore, they're always on the back foot. Even Savea was getting manhandled, and he's got enormous power, but he's too small as an eightman. He should be playing as openside towards the ball. The rest of their backrow is really missing a Kaino and Reid type player. Play Barret at blindside with with Frizzell at 8 when he's back from injury. In this game, only Scott Barrett crossed the gainline. Taukei'aho should also be starting... you gonna struggle in this RWC if you're getting bullied up front.
Good take mate
Look at the comments sections after these All bLack loses. 'so proud of my AB's' - 'great game AB's we will destroy them next time. This is the modern era where losing is ok and it is just a game.
Lol which comments section
@@Wildkard Just wait for the next All Blacks loss and go to all the after match reviews. It is quite astounding to see.
Both teams played kickety kick kick kick yesterday - I really hope the pundits pan them for this like they did the Bokke 2 years ago. Let them
Have it for kicking so much.
I remember the lion tour too
Gotta get back. The short pieces I saw was a wave of white jerseys
Yeah not much at all for ab
Lovely
Listen the french played a 5-3 bench im sure the NZ pundits will want this banned
They will ban kicking
First half was a bit stiff from France, but boy did they pick up in second half, where they never showed panic, but a confidence that they'd win in the end.
AB too undisciplined, underwhelming kicking, no clear cut gameplan...they need to pull themselves together.
France were resilient, pushed again and again, and it peyed in the end. Great way to open the WC from France
Can't wait for England-Argentina!
All blacks is truely a headless chook npw
As a neutral Fan the opening game was a major disappointment after all the hype was made, looking forward to better games
You're right but you could almost feel the tension in the air because it was so tense!...and so hot also !
the second half was much better!
true the looks on the Fr players faces said alot@@gandigooglegandigoogle7202
the French should thank SA for breaking the AB confidence. the AB looked like they didn't have plan B .
🤣🤣☕☕
De Groot got bullied again !
True
As a all black fan its sad to admit but we are plain and boring and garbage 😂
😔😔😔
Don't be surprised if the all blacks put a clinic on Namibia
The abs dont know how to maintain and/or wrestle momentum against the opponent.
Clueless
Hi Wildkard. I felt France won the kicking-for-territory game. Kept NZ mostly penned in their half. Dominated up front. Especially at scrum-time. Slotted crucial penalty kicks. And got the all important bounce of the ball for a match-clinching try. With ten to five minutes to go I still felt NZ could sneak a victory though.
second AB try isn't valid, it's a clear forward pass, the save to prevent Penaud's try was miraculous, and the French were getting stronger, their bench is insane, so could have been also 34-8..
Yeah the kicking game was defs better for france especially 2nd half.
All blacks just rusty and maybe they were under the pump to perform but they will advance to the next round regardless of this game and they will have more time together to get used to playing as a team, they're still a force to be reckoned with and still have a chance, too early to write them off.
Dowm not out forsure
We were shite. Scoreline flattered France a bit though. I'd say SA and Ireland can take them.
Nope the score flattered the AB,france in total control second half ,AB 2nd try should hav been refused,cant get more forward pass,thx God didn't matter at the end
😂😂😂 you are so funny..All of you!
I saw the same comments 10 days ago about the AB's destroying France! Hold my beer 🤔
@@NB-yc1ro But that's... not the same comment at all. Are you feeling okay?
thanks wildcard. great review...!
the all blacks were going fine.....
until the yellow card.
then they lost their composure.
and things got messy....!
No the entire second half was ridiculous. Totally aimless kicking. It was working in the first half but france figured it out in the second. What I dont understand is if we are playing whitelock why not try atleast once for field position and a lineout in france's half. That second half was just unbelievable with the constant up and under and no other plan at all. IMO Beauden and Will Jordan should be droped for the next big game on this performance alone. Im fked if Know why Jordan didnt think he deserved the yellow was just constantly shaking his head about it. Dude's delusional or poorly coached. He was actually damn lucky he didnt get a red because he did it two or three times. (not that it would of made any difference because that game was done the moment he got the yellow).
I thought the game was a little scrappy. The kiwis looked very ordinary just hapless, no clear gameplan and a lot of kicking and funny enough they complain about the boks kicking game. I predicted that just 1 loss and they'll become flustered. Yhe 1 try was a forward pass. The scoreline could've also been 40 - 5 really. Im waiting for the breakdown😅😅
Jeff wilson will say the rest of the pool wont play like that
The All Black's slightly improved on The Springboks last match up.
Yep 😢 and if they continue at that pace they’ll be a shoe in for 2027 😂
@@gregpaul9144😂
🤣🤣🤣☕☕
Honestly I'm not sure beauden should be on the pitch now days.....
Yeah I dont see the point in him or whitelock if they insist on not playing for field position and lineouts. Might aswell play Dmac and Barrett fulltime if thats our gameplan. Ethan blackadder needs to be flown over to replace Cane and Dalton too but I know that'll never happen with this idiot Foster running this clown show. Ethan blackadder should of been our starting 7 since 2021.
He shouldnt he plays like a fly half and makes mounga worse
The ABs are not familiar with the type of pressure that teams are able to exert on them. They're struggling to find ways to exit or setup their attack. They need to shore up their pack and concentrate on their way of playing. Best form of defense is ATTACK
Not enough presure at super rugby
The ABs did not have a very good exit plan and were playing in the wrong areas. They seemed to lack a Plan B when plan A didn't work. This was exposed against the Boks! To be honest, I was rooting for the ABs but they never played very well due to the pressure by France. Again, same thing the Boks did against them. Ramos is excellent from the left but can be a bit ropey on the right when kicking for poles. De Groot looked like he was boring in instead of scrumming straight. Great review mate!
De groot was boring in and he was jammed downwards and kept falling down. Good response by antonio
Ian Foster last world cup
And Boks are supposed to play a boring kicking game
🤣🤣🤭
