[RB-elrm]

So much respect for Japan! Even their crowd cheers for the ABs impressive conversion on the first try

[robp]

That first try from Japan was brilliant! Old school inside pass without looking.

[MichaelScarn-bh]

Kiwi commentators are just a joy to listen to. As impartial as can be, and just enjoy watching good rugby, no matter who scores.

[NasinuWarrior]

No yellow or red card. Clean game. From Viti 🇫🇯

[Phil_Invest]

Nice game. Lovely supporters in Japan.

[ethancoster]

Pity about that try that was scrubbed off. Destroyed any Japanese momentum.

[isimelithegeethe]

That cross kick was the highlight of the game 😂

[wingedangel]

So many new faces for me in this All Blacks team. Will always support ABs

[js_dev_uk]

Anyone see the thumbnail and for a second have to do a double take. Gone but never forgotten.

Japan play exciting rugby watch for them next world cup. Great win NZ from 🇿🇦

[The_wolf_gamer]

mckenzie defence was very good i gotta say two try saving tackles and his kikcing 70% with 5 from the touchline

[kekemamoe]

Finau was sound defensively and had some great runs 💯 big improvement from the subpar performances he's put out thus far. Hope he continues to improve like this 👍

[krtical]

Low key worrying how easily Japan managed to skin us on the outside a number of times

[UptheWahs]

I will never understand how david Havili keeps getting selected

[LiviuNedelcu-ioot]

Why All Blacks still playing with Havili and Perenara, what is the point?

[canadiancontent]

1) although i like Japan its always nice to see Jones get spanked

2) i liked the full scale change as it put pressure on the subs to produce. Didht get to wstxh the game but seems obvious they struggled. Which is a good test.

4) Dmacs defence on his 1st cover tackle was unbelievable, forcing the pass then sliding off to make the SAFE tackle (not a head in front specia).
A) if that play doesnt tell robertson that hes a 15 who shoulad act like a second 10 i dont know what will

[archvermin]

Congrats to Ruben Love - two tries on debut!

[kevinrtres]

Japan showing that there's still some fire in them. How I wish that disallowed try was valid. I did predict a high AB score but was pleasantly surprised by the enterprising Japan play. ABs allowed off the hook here.

[自称折り曲げの天才]

I could watch HAKA foe the first time on my eyes🥹
I'm so happy!
Thank you for coming to Japan!
また日本での試合を楽しみにしてます！
