    Spot on :)

    It's actually because I'm doing the most boring reading in the world, it's frustrating me, so I annoy other people to make myself feel better.

    AWHeef.

    Popock took advantage of the full extent of leniency the ref provided. Can't fault for that.

    Almost single handedly won them the game tbh. Was immense of defence.

    Exactly. I was raging hard at the TV as it was shocking refereeing, but that's the breakdown/ruck in rugby for you; the best loosies are those that read how much the ref will let them get away with and work within it. Can't fault Pocock at all, and you have to recognise that he had an immense game.

    Pocock was a deserving MOTM he just kept stealing momentuem from the Yarps.

    If he said he was the second best openside in the world - good call?

    He's better then McCaw IMO.

    Definitely. Not as good as McCaw at his peak, but definitely better than McCaw right now. Pocock could get heaps better too.

    Pocock is going to be so gun.

    Yeah, Pocock is the best in the world at this stage.

    Yeah, McCaw just doesn't seem as "mobile" (is that the right word?) as he was a few years back. Various injuries have really began to take a toll on his body.

    NZ vs. France final would be gun 87 all over again.

  18. Escath LE Schaw

    Yeah, skill-wise, Pocock is definitely the best in the world. I still think McCaw offers more to his team due to his leadership and presence, though.

    Wait, what? Why is NZ not automatically the home team? It makes sense if they tossed for it if it was two neutral teams, but come on, NZ is hosting this tournament.
