Really enjoyed the opening game. Two closely matched sides, and the one with the better set piece won.
Terrifying physicality from Fiji.

Looking ominous already. Kiwis score after a big break featuring the worst attempt at a tackle I've ever seen Tipiric commit

I’m pretty sure that ABs are targeting that moving blue spot on the field as an easy way through the defence.

Nice try, but...TWO HANDS TO PUT IT DOWN! I always shudder when you see the ball bouncing loose as grounding occurs. Sooner or later you stuff it up.

Wales haven't collapsed and can offer more. Kiwis have a skill and physicality advantage but seem less than the sum of their parts. Strange game.

It just has the feel of every Wales v NZ match over the years in the AIs. Wales with lots of possession but no consistent cutting edge. NZ efficiently rack up the points. Prob a late few bursts from Wales near the end and the crowd booing supposed NZ cynicism in the last 20 (as if they ever had a chance to win).
I would like to be surprised but so far is the usual pattern.

Fiji with a bit of time together at the world cup will be a threat to anyone.

This should be a try.
Great work by Smith for his solo score too. Looks like a fun second half in store.
TMO desperate for it to be ruled out though

Why did the Welsh forward stare at the orange juice? Because it said ‘concentrate’ on the carton.

He’s a good analyst if he’s kept away from Wales. No idea why the second commentator always has to be from the host nation, they’re all so much worse.JM2K6 wrote: Sat Nov 05, 2022 4:37 pm Me waiting for Warburton to start talking about Lions selection for Faletau / Williams / Tipuric / etc

ABs 12 completely in at the side the phase before there, but guessing it won't be looked at.

Savea with a very odd try. What a strange game. Anyway, Wales have barely fired a shot this half.
