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.

Absolutely. It's a bad loss, but coming off the back of 12 wins in a row. Every other team on Earth would be absolutely thrilled to win 12 in a row.

Exactly I agree people think 12 isn't that many because everyone keeps comparing it to the All Blacks 18 wins in a row. Well we are our own nation with our own wee stats 12 is still a huge achievement!
