Oh and by the way, this post 2015 team just isn't a patch on the previous side stacked with all-time greats. No-one could have done any better with the cattle available. Losing convincingly to a very good England side shouldn't be a major surprise to anyone given the patchy form shown throughout the 2016-19 era and the lesser standard of players available in general.

The weakness was his coaching. I don't think he did much to turn his players into better performing athletes. His side was never really the same after Wayne Smith left. In the end,his selection was found out too.
As his assistants got weaker (with Smith moving on) he seemingly delegated more. Tough to keep a high performance environment when most player probably rate their super coaches higher than Foz & co.

Who was the coach throughout the 2016-2019 era before tonight?
This side is no 2015 (and the fact the current team believes they are somehow related to them is probably 25% of the problem) - but two world class locks, experienced loose forward trio and decent skill position backs is more than enough to put together a RWC winner.

Steve Hansen inherited Graham Henry's once in a generation team. He did nothing with it.
We've been poor for the past three years.
Flat track bullies who were owned by Ireland and England.
Like John Mitchell in 2003 he was out of ideas so he went with the hot Super Rugby team. And he selected a lot of duds. Bridge, Scott Barrett, Reece, Mounga. Discarded experience and selected mediocrity. Also like Mitchell he's an arrogant tool who likes to criticize players in public. I hope Ioane and Luatua are having some bitter laughs.
I can sort of imagine you ejaculating as you write. Like you’ve been waiting for a loss so you can beat your little drum. Pathetic

@Billy-Tell I've been saying it for three years. His flaws are obvious.

Rubbish, he and others have been worried about this all year. Nobodies happy we lost, but we are frustrated at the predictability of it
