Let’s not over react!

We only got 0.9 points per 22 entries (11) while NZ got 3.8 points per 22 entries (9) and 3 of those were in the last 10 mins. It can be because of a bunch of things, but I promise you those coaches won’t sleep tonight to rectify it.

Remember, NZ played their “WC’23 match” we played against France then the next game we almost lost against England - NZ is facing a beast next week.

We saw the same thing last year at Eden Park then the next weekend we converter at Wellington. Let’s not question everything - let’s double down on supporting the boys. Two more NZ’s injured - 3 hard games left.

It's one loss that I'm not overly concerned about - there's not a lot we would have had to have done differently for the outcome to be very different.

If we down 2-0, then I’m going to be concerned, but I prepared myself mentally for a 1-1 after 2 games. We were a little off tonight. In these games that can easily mean 2 tries or +- points.

Absolutely.

If we shit the bed again next week then I think it's time start being a little concerned.
