He use to play 13 so not technically a Cullen

@BerniesCorner the fuck?? BB at 13?
@MN5 not sure what relevance Fozzies weight has, seems plenty of people stick the boot in on that aspect, when it has zero reflection on his ability as a coach (doubt he'd be a better coach if he was ripped)
People function better in all aspects of life at a healthy weight. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt.
-
@MN5 Given nothing of what he does needs to be made off the cuff where weight and fitness providing clarity of thought while exhausted would be relevant.
Just think it is a wrong to be calling him fat all the time (similarly people called Hansen fat too)

You’re right in that it doesn’t effect his coaching but it just shows gluttony and a lack of self discipline to me. It’s not like he can’t afford healthy food and access to training and diet advice.
I guess our opinions will have to differ.

I remember Fozzie saying they were going to up the physicality and pick more specialists.
What a load of BS.
Doesn't that just go to show how arrogant he's been? Just like a fucking politician, he came into the job preaching hope and change, sending the people the message they wanted to hear, and now he's in the job he's continued on with his bone-headed plan that was an abject failure last year.

If telling people what they want to hear with no actual intention to rock the boat gets you into the best jobs, why not? It's not like they select on merit..

I missed the game on Saturday - what happened?
Was there even a game?I'm not going to read back through these posts. Its too depressing. For a long time, I felt our performance in the Lions First test was our template moving forward, now it looks more and more like an aberration. It now seems that we really can't look at in all the recent losses since the BIL & Chicago in isolation, because a pattern has formed, and we really have come back to the pack - which is great for World Rugby, shit for us.
Foster has to go.
RM is not the next Dan Carter, in fact, I think its probably been shown that BB is better behind a poor pack. RM has and does go missing when its not working in front of him. We have some issues, not just RM, but right through the whole team & culture. Time for change.
I hope Razor can fix them. -

It is a bit hard to preach change when you're still winning over 80% of your games in the most recent RWC cycle.

Except those we lost were crucial, lions, SA, etc. The writing was on the wall, it was picked up on this forum. We were proved right, so why couldn't ask the geniuses at NZR see what we could?

I hope Razor can fix them.RM is a big time downhill skier and he's shown that quite amply over the past couple of months. No ability or even willingness to try and impact the game when it's not being served up on a platter. I also wonder if he has a good enough kicking game to be steering this team around the park. This team is going to get beaten upfront fairly regularly it seems, so we need a 10 who can actually kick a ball in a way that's going to relieve pressure. I don't see that he has this ability.
