Argentina One: Parramatta, 14 November

The Argies are generally a likeable team. I used to like them even during the Porta years when he was the only back above 9 allowed to join in..

We have gone from being the games innovators to a team struggling for ideas .
Lost to the wallabies and the pumas in successive weeks playing dumb rugby . Really dumb .

@kev yes I can believe that. Good centres take time. I still think he has potential but perhaps he'll always be an unstable combination of excitement and utter dumb shite machine..

@akan004 It’s because they are running off an old template of a speed game with light back-like loose forwards running oppositions ragged. Three problems with that - one, you need to win first phase possession, two you need to be competitive at the breakdown and three, you need a strategy that has not already been on show for five years. This is very ordinary and unimaginative coaching. It’s like when Tim Cook took over from Steve Jobs at Apple. The thinking was ‘we have a winning formula. Just keep on churning out product based on the same template that the rest of the world has already worked out years ago’. It’s stale thinking from mediocrities standing on the shoulders of those who have gone before and enabled by conservative money men who are chained to what they think is a winning formula.

I would love to hear what BB really thinks of Foster and what has happened the last few years. I have a sneaking suspicion behind closed doors he thinks foster is a fluffybunny. This no doubt creeps into the culture of players etc and may help explain why he has just been off for some time.

@nostrildamus he can do that at the level below. In tests we need him to do his core roles well.

Can't argue with you kev. 13 is a key position and I liked JG there last year (just wish he was a bit quicker)
-
Walden the answer in midfield?...

When was the last back to back losses?
They said 2011
And three in a row?

if not Cane then who as Captain? SW? Doesn't he have enough on his shoulders? The only other certainty is arguably A Smith?

Aussies will smash them next week as Argentina will be drinking litres and litres of red wine
What’s wrong with that? I might smash a couple of malbecs in their honour 😀

I'm beginning to doubt if Foster has the skills to develop his potential.

@nostrildamus that is why they moved him to 12. He executes really well and is a great defender. The Blues have always had the best runners, but seldom the best backline.

Missed the game. Thought Kick Off was about now.
Just seen the score. WTF?!
You poor bastard having to sit through it, save yourself the trouble and just get on the foster is a fluffybunny bandwagon.
