Jeez the bitchiness is out in force in this thread. The ABs get spanked and the Fern eats itself.
Been a few people worried about the direction we’ve been going for a while now. This is a nadir moment though.

@Kirwan Hahaha the only non Crusaders players he'd have in the side are Jonah Lowe on one wing, Gareth Evans at 6 and maybe Danny Toala or whatever his name is covering the bench.

Yes, but he calls me biased.

I'd say it's too soon to stop. They've only played this combo twice.
That's the problem. So we keep trying to make it work right into the pool stages of RWC2019? Doesn't make sense...
I also think our backline would work better with Crotty in it.
I like Crotty, I really do. I like him even more when he lasts 30 minutes without being injured.

@NTA still playing ol boy? Gutsy man, gutsy. 😁👍
Equally: stupid.
Mrs TA being away for the weekend with her friends, I decided to set up the swag in the backyard, and I'm here right now, wondering whether this is better for recovery than our King bed with squishy mattress.

@mariner4life The entire pack was a fail today. Which is really, really unsettling so close to the WC.

I scott barrett was banned until the end of the world cup would anyone care?

Well done Australia, looked great.
That was awful and next week is a must win.
I doubt 3-peat RWC, but with the right team we can still beat anyone.
Calling Jamie Joseph for 2020.
At the moment I'd start withBen Smith
Ennor
Crotty
SBW
Rieko
BB
Aaron Smith
Read
Cane
Frizelland a more dynamic tight 5.

@Stargazer which means he won't be available for SA in the RWC, heat on BBBR shoulder
-
@African-Monkey That's a ridiculous statement and you know it.

Mokey, i've been saying it for a year, but they are really just a bunch of okay footballers withour Rettalic and peak Read. This is no "keeping the powder dry" this is "not good enough"

I feel extremely sorry for ALB. Every bloody week he has different guys around him.
Speaks volumes for the bloke he keeps giving his all despite being buggered about all the time.

@taniwharugby That depends if they can claim he was likely to play for Taranaki in the non-test weeks. He hadn't played since the Super Rugby quarter final on 21 June after all, so maybe they can use the same reasoning as they used for SBW when he got that red card during the lions series.
-
Who'd you have replacing the injured Crotty and/or SBW after the usual 10-15 minutes of play?

no one cares. Seriously. Scott Barrett is average. Not awful, but average. If we need him at the World Cup, we are boned.
And that's it. If we are forced to start him, the campaign is already over.
