@MikeHumphrey-d9b I beg to differ.. Conrad ran the same lines as Alama, but Alama was a stronger ball carrier.. Nonu was mentored and guided by Tana from being a winger to a midfielder.. What's your view as to why Conrad and Nonu were better? I think they're both great combinations that come out of Wellington
With all the great players England had during this decade and not to win a RWC is a shame but then again that is the DOMINANCE OF SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE RUGBY. UNMATCHED
How many Smith's were there in this all blacks team but nonetheless funny to believe this was ten years ago when england at first had the game won just to have it taken form the all blacks man these was some rugby game
Incredible team and comeback to deservedly win. The GOAT was an amazing player but no way he would get away with the blatant kick/trip tackle nowadays! Easy yellow (7:14)
@@thespianbh7362 I would like to see sititi at 8 against england hes a bigger frame than ardie who is a 7. @6? prob have blackadder(injured) when is this guy actually fit ever ffs. or the bigger but slower Finau
Try scores own hand under ball,that's a fair try,damn th new bs Bunker in NRL who take away those fair tries plus a lot of other fair TD tries,ritely despise them
Gee,realise the benefit of not taking so many penalty shots,sure th one before half time was right,but pressure on and field position can be valuable many times,but supposed expert players an coaches never learn, dorks
Gave a thumbs-down because of weird camera angles, slow-mos during play, narrowing to postbox-style aspect ratio and distracting music. Just show us the game normally, please.
Which Smith is the greatest to play for the All Blacks? 🤔🤔🤔
Jack Goodhue & Anton Lenert-Brown!
@@BrianOchieng-bc1il Dumb dumb.
Hahaha when all 3 were on this team, they were a composed monster.
The A,B,C of Smiths........legend.
Has there been a better mid-field pairing to watch than Ma'a Nonu and Conrad Smith. Thanks guys, for all the years.
Yes.. Alama Iremia and Tana Umaga
I noticed 😀
@@MrHianga Ooh, they were a good match too.
@@MrHianganot as good but up there

Pity David Smith didn't get a call up. He wasn't far off.
@@tergre54 And Ethan, Fred and Grant........
@@GaryPeters-nv8pj True. But there really was a David Smith around that time who played in NZ 7s, wing, then moved to play in France. A good player.
Ian was commentating from the side
@@GaryPeters-nv8pj as well as Wayne
Ben Smirh legend ❤
Conrad Smith was the brains behind the backline, didn't see much of him, but you know when he's not there.
This was his first game starting at 15 for the All Blacks if I remember. All the Highlanders fans in the crowd knew what to expect 👍
Conrad and nonu 🤩 luckt for england that carter and read are not playing for this game
Yas, that Ben Smith was excellent. The whole SA sighed relief when he retired!
Funny he’s never spoken in the same vain as Cullen, but you’d argue he was better for longer.
The last 2 vid thumbnails looks like they are part of a sitcom 😂
That wasn t an england try. It wasn t grounded.
17:23 God I miss Kaino

Marler made a significant contribution to All Blacks win!!!!
Hahaha back when Barrett was the super sub.
Ben Smith the second most underrated Allblacks player after Aaron Cruden.
Just look at the class across the All Black line up. Ok so Dan was missing, but still.

not nearly as many Williams's and Thomas's in the Taffy lineup I'll tell ya that much
It was the Smith Triumvirate. A blessed time for us.
@@archverminthe Smith holy trinity
I missed this team 😢❤
Some shocking reffing in this game
Some horrendous plays by the All Blacks TBF, I mean, 2 undeniable penalties in 90 seconds?
Oh yeah, I remember this game. England a yard in front of the last foot every breakdown. Ignored by Piper. (The game? Oh yeah, great game.)
Incredible team and comeback to deservedly win.

players in their true position helps hint hint! robertson. btw sititi is an 8 savea is a 7 .
Of course Jerome Kaino one of our best ever 6s is playing in the 8 jersey in this game…

3:50 not often you see McCaw miss a tackle. Let alone to YARDE
rubbish TMO decision
Is there a better sporting nation than New Zealand I don't think so
The year before the Poms got kicked out of their own world cup
Danny Care, Owen Farrell, joe marler, Aaron Smith, Sam Whitelock, Dane Coles, Aaron Cruden.... was this 10 years ago or last week???😅
This when All Blacks was good to watch now I don’t want All Blacks play anymore hahaha

What is this editing? Changing the aspect ratio and then using the worst camera angle during exciting moments lol
two tries you show us the worst camera angle possible and no replay 👎
Marshall quiet when the ABs are dominating,wakes up as soon as the English get a sniff....dork
I always thought he was a bit strange and I always believe it was because he never won a world cup.

Giveaway penalties, pathetic defence!
