Pulotu-Nuffy tackling like an exorcist missile on a bloke kicking... can't believe the Welsh captain got sent off last week, I think that tackle is far worse.

Thought I was watching AFL with the amount of fumbling going on. Why do they play for 3rd place? Seems silly.

How much better are the wannabies with Barnes in 10 instead of Cooper!!!!... I'm glad Deans isnt coaching the All Blacks now... he always plays favorites... to the teams detriment on occasion.

I think third place game should be cut from the next tournament. Worthless game.
tell that to Wales... who because of this result are gonna end up on the All Blacks side of the draw in 2015.

thats almost a death kneel...

That game confirms it for me: Burgess/Barnes is a better scrum base combo than Genia/Cooper. I've always thought so and it was bloody obvious tonight!

hang on?? are you saying that you would have gone with the Tah's halves instead of the Red's ones?? :lol:

mind you... The All Blacks could end up winning the World Cup with the Hurricanes halves... :?
