    Terrible level of protection shown to the French player.

    Deliberate arm to the head followed by a head to the head. Absolutely a yellow, if not two. Pearce is having a shocker.

    As the saying goes you make your own luck.

    Absolute bottler, the ref with that decision.

    Did Teddy Tomas forget he plays on the wing? His defensive positioning has been awful.

    He stands inside the maul pointing at his own wing...mind boggling.

    It’s the 3rd time France jumped across in the line out, first two were free kicks I believe, upping to a penalty is justified.

    Ref has made some howlers, but the ABs are full value for this lead. It does reflect the difference between the teams. They are an absolute joy to watch.

    The French just lose all interest when their heads go down.

    Barrett is still very hit and miss from the ground.
    You have to think it will cost them in tighter games.

    NZ probably should have a red and a yellow card from the 1 collision. Shocking from Pearce and the TMO.

    NZ lethal as ever once they get going.

    This happens so often though.

    Like the ABs are good and would have won this in all likelihood but that in itself is always given as an excuse to let dodgy decisions go their way.

    It just happens so often it flummoxes me as to how people enjoy watching it.

    Saying the French "heads just drop" is a cop out. It's hard to keep up for this sort of crap continuously.

    53 goddam minutes...

    There is no excuse for France collapsing, but any chance France had of hanging in was destroyed by a terrible yellow call.

    France's heads dropped, which they shouldn't have, but against the best team in the world, you need the refs to at least get calls right.

    Not targetting the ref for the sake of it here...but that was the shortest advantage time for a penalty I've seen...
    Did France ask for the penalty?...is that a thing you can do?

    Hindsight's 20/20 of course, but wouldn't have been a mad bet to make at half-time that France wouldn't score again.

    "Who would have believed this scoreline at the 51 minute mark".

    Eh...everyone? This is the AB's and France. A tsunami is always on the cards.
