On that display, they'll steamroller any team - SA were far from cr@p, some of their line running and breaks were superb, just second best.

As a Welshman, I have to look forward to NZ, SA, Aus & Georgia - we like to make things easy for ourselves. Then again you only learn from the best..... hence we have nothing to learn from the Lillywhites :D :wink:

They probably would too, unstoppable at times. :cheers:

Commentator: "Who wants it?" (leading up to 4th try) - incredible support.

[EDIT] And Wayne Barnes.... still the best.

Great clip, isn't it. :D I posted it for one reason really and that is the behind the back pass from Barrett to Milner-Skudder. A thing of beauty not seen often, although the All Blacks do more than their fair share of things like that. Pete :cheers:

France and New Zealand appear to have gotten the dirty end of the stick. 3 matches in a 7 day period. Pete :cheers:
