AB forwards are not winning collisions since Taukeiaho went off.

The most frustrating thing about the ABs right now, by a mile, is their absolute reluctantnce to play ST. He's (IMO) the world's most influential hooker right now, an absolute super star that scarily for other teams will only get better. But against the Irish it's 2 bench appearances then dropped. Tonight he fucking dominates for 45mins and is subbed? I just can't wrap my head around it.

Great throw by Taylor. Point proven. Foster is still shit

Put in corner. Good.

JC

And immediately Taylor fucks up the throw. Why is he there?

No Quarter

Fuck me that's costly from Taylor

Not with Taylor as hooker

Just lack of accuracy, patience and poor disipline being hammered by a ref who is not having a good.night.

Last 12 months?

This is Foster's ABs. Losing too Argentina, at home

No Quarter

We started strong but have reverted to type again now.

I know I said I understood NZRs decision to keep Foster on for the sake for the players, but if we lose to Argentina at home then he has to be canned immediately.

Damo

I wouldn't take A Smith off for Christie just now. We need experience.

Won't happen. NZR would rather ABs rugby go down the shit hole that is foster fucking uselessness, than admit an error

@Chris yep that ship sailed
