Was at the game tonight, so probably missed a lot, but it just feels like it's going the same way as last year. We will beat most of the shite, with a bonus point, and will be in the playoffs by Easter, but the big teams will overpower us with ease. We've no grunt in the team, no power. The reserves aren't really good enough either.  Surely John Hardie is a better bet than anybody in that back row today?

Just home from the game. From looking at the team it's no secret that Rennie rested players for next Sun.

Therefore long-term injuries, '2nd' XV squad players and youngsters were playing together for the 1st time this season. A bit of gelling so there were errors but I'd hope the set pieces are practiced to oblivion next week as they were slack.

Overall we were playing Zebre's strongest team (apart from Carlo Canna) but still worked hard and took advantage when Zebre tired and collapsed, though their yellow card helped.

Remember a couple of weeks ago we were going to pump South Africa in November?
ETA: We still will, obviously. Maybe by not as much.
Yes, I called them a shite team; so I'm now calling NZ beyond shite... Dreadful.
Mind we absolutely pumped Argentina in Argentina in summer, and they absolutely pumped South Africa few weeks back... Northern Hemisphere is rising!!!!
Ps Australia are pathetic

Exactly. Argentina v South Africa had us all thinking we were going to hammer that dross. Now, not so sure.
