Not sure what is more hyperbolic anymore.
The criticism of Foster or the praise given to Robertson.
Yes, you can put results side by side and have a comparison whinge if you want, but if you give Scotland the true credit they actually deserve, you'll come up with the conclusion that Foster smashed Robertson this weekend.
Scots are a good team, at home, with a backline far far superior to what we put out. They are at peak of their season, we are at the end. And we beat them, with out playing our best team.
Ups to Foster.
Scotland would have annihilated those Baabaas.

Um are you implying the NZ XV are crap?
Speaking of peak of season, when was ours? Honestly don't know.

No. I’m saying that beating Scotland at home is a bigger achievement than beating a thrown together team of third rate NZ players.
Peak should be mid of regular season.

@Chris it's going to be fucking funny if we make the world cup final.
Slow day today....
Razor did a better job of the haka with 5 men than McDonald did with 23.

Discuss.Well, I haven't seen any videos, but I have to say I was disappointed that the AB XV lost. That said, it was a close defeat against a team stuffed with Test veterans who regularly beat the top international teams while the AB XV was a pretty inexperienced bunch.
So a close defeat against that was a good result. I guess it comes down to the quality (or lack of) of both team's coaches.
I'll leave others to comment on the match itself as I've yet to see it....

Classic avoiding the question. No mention of the haka as is typical of a Foster apologist /razor apologist.

Listen up, I was talking about the Haka. It's perfectly clear Razor is a coaching God who can turn any Frenchman into a verifiable master of pūkana in less than 3 hours....

Phew. Finally reached its logical conclusion. We can close the Foster thread now.

I'm happily on the Foster is shit train but coaching a Baas Baas team for a couple of weeks means diddly farking squat.

probably another thread this could go in, but confirms that Razor wants the AB job post RWC, if not, he will be off, but ABs is his 1st choice.

One hopes NZR don't leave it so late that no one bothers to apply when offered another role

"Ian Foster says his team is ready to shake off the challenges and deliver one final statement performance for their 2022 season."
I guess another Loss then as the only Statement made by you in 2022 Mr Foster is that you are a poor coach .
At this point are you just cut and pasting these sorts of comments? Christ it's boring.

So is the pathetic Coaching of the AB's but its still there for all to see.

Sure, but surely there are more constructive commentary to be made that "Foster sucks" or "Foster is fat". The thread has the IQ of a six fingered banjo player.

You probably are right,Frustration with the present situation deems responses,Its just reading the drivel that comes out of Foster that makes me for one want to highlight it.
But yeah I guess it gets boring but it keeps coming from Foster. -
