...in that first half against Wales, with Moala also a constant threat? The shuffled All Blacks looking strong and enterprising. Wales struggling. Blew a great scoring opportunity right on halftime.

 Your right Pakie, the Dagg Smith threat looks huge, they are really getting a feel each other & combine really well. Moala looks like Nonu with his running, we need to see how his passing is though as there were a couple of time he could have passed. Just like Nonu in his early days.
Barrett looks good, he's spotting the space & exploiting it, he also spots the forwards in the backline .

Indeed, Barrett seldom fails to add value. Moala still a bit rough around the edges yes, but boy he looks like trouble when he's on the move.

And hardly have we spoken or that plucky fellow Barrett crashes over to score.

Dagg backs himself, but perhaps just hung onto it a little too long there.

The Boks are like a lotto these days WD. We seem to have hit our stride in the last 20 last week, but maybe the Irish were just tired of looking for oxygen up in the Highveld. So many problems still to sort out, but if the guys can get their sh!t together early on we should win it. We're at least starting with fewer liabilities on the field than we did last week .

We're hungry for a performance that hints at some direction, progress and consistency guys. It's been messy so far from the Boks.

In the meantime, big statement from the All Blacks. Bit messy at the end but that's understandable with the game well won and lots of guys out of position after the replacements .

Simply superb.
The standard that the All Blacks dish up week in and week out is simply unbelievable.
To think that we'll be watch the 2nd rate trash of Bok rugby later is depressing.
They are light years behind the Mighty blacks. 
Barrett had a cracker. Why he's considered a backup to Cruden puzzles me. 
Moala showed his class.
Dagg and Smith ... there are no words to describe their brilliance. 
Really enjoyed that display.

 ABs had 38% possession in that game. Didn't seem to matter at all as they scored 6 tries to 0.
