By Campbell BurnesThe All Blacks' discipline, or lack of it, is starting to become a major issue and it will need to be sorted out before Wayne Barnes takes the whistle for the test in Paris next weekend. They have conceded three yellows in their two northern tests against Ireland. Discipline was not a factor in the All Blacks' 68-10 shellacking of Italy in Rome under the control of Nigel Owens, not when only one team turned up to play. In Dublin this morning, South Africa referee Jaco Peyper, one of the best in the world, blew 14 penalties to four against the All Blacks, most for breakdown infringements. Some pundits have felt the All Blacks should have taken anywhere between one and three more yellow cards for borderline tackles.
