I'm backing Foster, he's building towards a special loss at Eden park and maybe even handing over the Bledisloe.
I'm going for building to losing to France and Italy at the RWC so we don't even get out of group. What a chump.

Breaking news, Mark Robinson will hold a press conference later tonight to say that there will be another press conference next Tuesday.

oh, and well played Argentina! Worked to your strengths in the second half and aside from passing on that penalty to go for the line they played a smart game. They grew another leg when the energy was flowing their way and we just had nada to combat it.
We did leave 8 points on the field from missed kicks though. Just saying.

They seem to play alright for the Crusaders🤔
Taylor was average as fuck this year for Crusaders.
Can't have been. He played for Razor the Wonder Coach.
He played better for Razor. Funny that.
Still think Fozzie should not have been dropped because of winning at Ellis Park - lol -
@ACT-Crusader to release the latest assistant coach survey results!

Well done Argies.
ABs very poor.
Most random reffing performance I have seen for some time, well since that Wales v Boks test.
He's simply not up to standard but he wasn't the reason you lost.
Was a factor.
Take him out and we win.
Not convinced
Ref wasn't committing the penalties and throwing the ball in shit
Ref invented penalties, for one side and ignored the other side.
It created the scoreboard pressure. And subsequent panic.
Sure we did stupid shit too.
But change that factor and put a proper ref in charge and that result changes.
That's down to the captain, players and coaches not adapting to the ref
Everyone knew he's useless before kick off
NZ did not play the ref, Argentina did

So where to now? I'm sure Jeff "the ABs are still the best in the world by some distance" Wilson believes Foster is the man and the record over the last 2 years is warranted to maintain the head coaching position.
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON???
We were good for 30 mins then went to complete shit, back to the same old crap we've seen for the last 3 years. Aaron Smith stopped running, one up hit ups, poor passing and Codie Taylor is costing us meters and points. Will Jordan is a shadow of his attacking self but this is just fucked. What an embarrassment.

One of the better defensive sides?... can't agree Cane ABs just suck
Yeah, he shoul dbe saying (again, he should be used to it by now) about how losing like this is not acceptable. We totally let them back in it with crap work in tight.
At least that power for playing direct rugby is safe
Hansen/Foster Dry Powder (TM) since 2017

@Chris said in All Blacks v Pumas 1:
What did Schmidt bring to the attack nothing.
Not keen on Schmidt. Ok for Blues but maybe that is his ceiling. When in charge of Ireland, they looked stale and predictable and their attack faltered. Just think like Eddie the game has moved on and passed him by.
-
Everyone knows that Foster is a shit coach, that's not up for debate. But the turning point in this match was subbing off our front row. That's on our forwards coach, right? Does Ryan also have a hard-on for Taylor?

I don't think he did. He was average to poor all year.

You bag him a lot for someone who thinks he shouldn't have dropped.

That's down to the captain
How the fuck anyone thinks Cane should be in this team, let alone captain is beyond me.
He is terrible.

Will Jordan should be the fullback. he will break the line and cause chaos. Jordie is functional. Jordan is the closest thing we have to Ben Smith/Dagg in the the squad.
