Greatest Rivalry TourAll Blacks head coach Dave Rennie has given his thoughts on what he sees as time-wasting in international rugby, and made a thinly veiled swipe at the Springboks and South African teams in the process.
The All Blacks won their second match on the Greatest Rivalry Tour on Tuesday, beating the Sharks 54-0 in Durban in a match they dominated.

We'll give some feedback to the officials later today, in preparation for the Sharks as well,” Rennie said.
Rennie says that teams do make tactical use of time-wasting, highlighting that lineout setups in particular take too much time out of the game.
