That Carter fend never fails to drop a defender. France are really losing their structure and discipline. Hard to resist this NZ momentum though

That's the trouble with Owens, he's a very momentum ref

May not necessarily be a blow out... but it does seem likely. NZ playing deadly rugby.

What was the score at HT in '99? ......24-10?

Not saying it will happen again but the ABs have looked strong... huge 1st half effort.
France look different to last week with some ball in hand and a few decent forays. Now a try....

Savea is an absolute beast of a player isn't he? All Blacks look pretty scary when they get the ball to him or Milner-Skudder in a bit of space.

Don't think pre-match predictions of New Zealand by some distance are going to be far off the mark!

france cannot win this match. because owens doesnt penalise NZ slowing the ball down, which they will do all day long being 2 scores ahead. i hate it.

It's been absolutely superb. The 'I Hate the All Blacks' brigade will do their usual moaning but the rest of us are just going to sit back and enjoy! Just think, SBW is coming on in the second half. This could be 50+.

This is good for the game, people tend to enjoy watching tries more than watching players kick the ball over some posts
