All Blacks vs Ireland - series decider

@No-Quarter said in All Blacks vs Ireland - series decider:

I honestly thought we would be too good for Ireland just on talent alone ala test 1. I thought Ireland would have one foot on the plane after getting up for their first ever win. But as it stands, Ireland have only grown in confidence while we have gone backwards.

It's very clear that the longer Foster is in charge, the worse we are getting.

There's so much wrong with our performance it's not even funny. Beauden always going for intercepts shows he has absolutely no faith in our defensive structure.

Our players aren't the problem either. Beauden has been crap, and Mo'unga maybe even worse in his minutes to date. Both are talented as fuck and most coaches would love to build a gameplan around them. But both look absolutely lost out there. The whole team does. We have no attacking or defensive structure at all, it's just comical, they have less structure than the fucking Canes and that is saying something.

As @KiwiMurph said, if we are a professional organisation than Foster and his assistants should be gone within 48 hours of the final whistle.

Great post spot on

Oh so all we need to do is fix the lineout? Good to know.

[BerniesCorner]

We are a proud rugby nation and obviously there needs to be management change now.
Tough times for the ABs and coaches. Regardless of the results everyone needs to treat people with respect.
Peoples mental health is important.

Yup our worst ever half time margin, fosters CV is exceptional

Plumtree has no fucking idea

Dreadful interview. Seems like he doesn't know what he is doing.

Looked to me like he knows he’s going to be down the road

Sums it all up doesn’t it.

ha ha new record, greatest ever half time margin deficit for ABs

[ACT Crusader]

@canefan but he was out there doing PR work endorsing it.

[IrishPat]

As an Irishman, I would like to suggest the All Blacks send young players to Ireland for a season to work on basic skills and not committing errors.

[WillieTheWaiter]

If you’re never competing a KO why not kick it proper deep

[stodders]

Have ABs ever fired a coach before? The last of Foster's firsts?

[MiketheSnow]

Yes Ireland are well coached but the desire to run and pass the ball and put the man in space is the difference

@Victor-Meldrew Don't kick the dog.

The cats have fucked off outside. Can't think why...

[stodders]

@IrishPat so you can poach them? 🤣🤣

@stodders I don’t think the NZRU would do it.

Time for the ‘spend more time with family’ moment I think.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Apologies if it's already been stated but it's more than a little jarring that their NZers are playing infinitely better than ours.

I think that is the most damning evidence. In a different environment with different coaches, they are playing to their full potential.

Horrible feeling not actually wanting the All Blacks to win if it means Foster keeping his job…

[Bones]

This is fucked up from the officials. Ireland defending from 2 metres in front of the offside line since halftime, holding tackled players and then not rolling away. Atrocious
