I'm surprised it didn't kick off in the last few minutes, when the game was finished. I noticed Morley looking to bait a few players. At one point he got up and I was sure he was going to take a few swings at Waerea-Hargeaves
As you say good to get the win and have a full team next week. But I wouldn't have minded seeing Rangi kick the poop out of Luke

It's going to be a long boring season at the ANZ, thankfully members get a discount and access to full strength beer.

Keep thinking of Brian McTigue with the way James Graham played tonight but just a bit about aggression. The Aussies in a game back in the 1960's had a proper idiot player, something like Les Boyd, thought he was tough but he was just stupid. McTigue was a trained professional boxer, best prop of all time and loved playing Rugby. Said idiot was constantly hitting on McTigue until eventually he got fed up of it and knocked the fool out with one punch. McTigues comment after the game was that he felt ashamed about what he'd done, because the bloke he hit just didn't know any better, much the same thing as the kiwi hooker tonight. Well done to Morley and Peacock, they are bigger men than that.

Luke is a cracking player but was more intent on cheap shots than concentrating on winning the game

Lost all respect I had for NZ last night. Nothing but thugs looking to start a fight. The likes of Luke (should be banned for life), Jeremy Smith, Adam Blair, Manu, Hargreaves... I just kept thinking to myself "Look at the scoreboard you mugs". We won, your off home on your long trip knowing you could only beat a semi-professional Welsh team.
And as for Benji Marshall, drop the tough guy act - we know your softer than a soggy loaf so dont pretend your a big man.

I lost all respect fror NZ at the beginning of the tournament as all they have looked like they wanted to do was slow the game down instead of playing.
IMHO i'd say that this NZ team is the dirtiest team i have ever seen.
