[QUOTE="Rich Taff, post: 689752, member: 68394"] Something seriously needs to be done about the kicking game. The players are obviously told where/how to kick, but it's not working. Kicking it down the throat of a counterattacking back three was dangerous against the Fijians, and will be downright suicidal against NZ. Not sure how much effect having the lid on made, but the ball must have been greasy for that number of knock ons (plus I don't think the intensity of the hits by the Fijians was truly reflected on television). Surprised by how effective the lineout has been (historically a major weakness), so that's a plus point. Overall disappointing performance, but don't think it's possible to single out one player for blame. Big changes need to be made before the NZ game. [/QUOTE]
