Springboks v All Blacks I
-
@OomPB I think alot of what is wrong right now, is on the coaching, maybe not all on Foster, but our defence is rubbish, our attack is impotent and even our counter, broken field stuff is poor right now, so many of the errors, IMO come back to players lacking in confidence or belief in themselves and one another, lack of clarity...surely you can see how dysfunctional they are, on both sides of the ball...you still played some good code under those coaches, we have played pretty poorly most of the time under this coaching regime, just an unstructured mess hoping a moment from Beaudy or Ardie or Reece or Jordan will be enough.
I think this team can still beat the Bokke, but do we have the gameplan and structure to beat them, that is another thing.
-
@taniwharugby I mean it's pretty obvious it is. Just look at the Maori vs Ireland....we have the players and even coaches who know what they're doing.

I just want to have fun again.
I want to feel.
You could bet your balls on the Boks winning?

@taniwharugby the tight 5 really worry me, and they are close to the best we've got.
Coaching will struggle to fix that in the short term

How should I feel about a crap All Blacks side?
But every hero needs a villain and the All Blacks, those monsters under the bed who’d snatch me away in the night...
-
@nzzp for me, it is our front row that is more concern, ST will hopefully provide a bit of spark, Bower seems to be growing into his role, AT, well, he is the best we got right now...
I think our locks have suffered due to the lack of work the front row has done for large parts the past 2 years or so, then the back row, less of an issue, but still a bit of imbalance the way we are using them.

Caleb Clarke vs Arendse should be interesting to watch. 30 kgs (at least) of weight difference between the two. I guess the ABs will try to provide a few munitions to Caleb Clarke to test Arendse's defense.
Shit, 140kg or so is downright fat for a winger

Youngest kid has asked to watch the game live for the first time. Alarm now set for 12:50am to allow time to make the Milo before kick-off.
Can't wait.
Next generation is getting into it. Something is on the line. Excitement. Time with dad/mum and stay up late. What's not to like ☺️

They are going to be crying piss in about 6 hours.
The best ever sportsman named Jordan is in town and he is going to be cutting lines like Keith Richards.
Their outhalf will be in the sheds after 5 minutes answering doctors questions such as "what is your mothers maiden name Handre?".
12 day stand down. Do not pass go. Do not collect 200 dollars.
Allblacks by 25.
