And the headless chook circus act continues from this coaching staff.
Fuck knows what this game brings, same game plan probably.
Same Result as many other losses under this regime.Chris, question please ...
... Am confused about what you think about Ian Foster and the current coaching team.
Can you please get off the fence and tell us what you really think?

Just going to say I don't have the same sense of trepidation for this Test.
Weirdly a few days ago I was in the position of expecting an All Black loss.
Last and only time I thought the All Blacks would lose was 1990. Vs France. Over there. Following losses to Core D'Azur & Cote Basque.
We won 2r-3 and 30-12. Never doubt the All Bkacks.
Was weird.
However a few things have knocked me back to reality, and am now expecting an AB win.

I’m going to leave judgement until after the match.
If we get slaughtered - coaches out please
If we win convincingly not only on the scoreboard but also on the pitch - fair play to foster.
A middling display - coaches out please
but how consistently have France been playing? If not very consistent, then the result might not be very revealing.
2019: Scraped past Tonga in the group stage, just lost to Wales by 1 in RWC QF.
2021: Thrashed Italy (50-10), beat Ireland (15-13), just lost to England (20-23)..just beat Wales (32-30), lost to Scotland by 4 (23-27)...Wales robbed of penalty try that would have won it for them.

Kinda don't think so as that would mean "we're stuck with Foster " ....

Perfect.

AB's to win by at least 5 for me. There's no way they'll lose two on the trot, not happening.

we're stuck with him anyway. If you think the board will go back on their decision just because of on field performance, you're assuming they won't let ego drive it.
Shitty shitty governance to extend him before the NH tour.

Watching a bit of the AB vs France Test in 2003 as warm-up for this game.
Young Joe Roks was fun to watch.

Trigger Warning: The TV Feed is showing pictures of Foster.

Great Haka

And the alternate strip has hints of grey…

Anyone know why we are buggering around with white jerseys?
