All Blacks looked dangerous

The All Blacks played England on Saturday and the All Blacks won 19 points to 6.

Firstly, I must say that Jonathan Kaplan the ref made a good job policing the whole game. He was in control from start to finish but was not in the limelight like Stuart Dickinson last week.

The All Blacks were looking dangerous at times especially Sitiveni Sivivatu, who constantly ran past the England players like they were standing still. I think the English were concentrating too much on Dan Carter and totally forgot about all the other players. Not a wise move.

It was boring to see the same old England tactics came out. The ball very rarely got out to the wings. Jonny Wilkinson needs to learn how to run the ball and not try to drop kick the thing out of the park. One bad example of this was when England were on attack in the 22 meters and they had numbers out to the left. The ball got to Jonny and he decided to try a drop goal which, of course, totally missed. So all the hard work that was done, ended up as nothing. Jonny needs to hang up his rugby boots and start a career in soccer.

The All Blacks looked good when they ran the ball, especially Mils Muliaina and Sitiveni Sivivatu. Richie McCaw had another great game. How does he keep going and going. Check that man for Energizer Batteries please!

This game was a good warm up to the clash against France next week. It is always a mystery as to what game the French will bring. But you can count on an entertaining match.

And the best part about the game, it will be shown at 8:45am on Sunday morning here rather than the aweful 3:30am starts that we have had to cope with recently. Yay for sleep ins!
