Even if he does win the cup, this is not good enough.
Really? I'd have thought winning the RWC would come before a warm-up game.
Yes because ABs should be better than this, the RWC is top priority but it is not everything

This game wouldn't even be played if there wasn't a RWC.

Never seen an ABs team physically dominated like this. Men against boys.
Ive seen it before, many times. But the likes of DC, Cory Jane , Dagg et al, caught their kicks and got us back down the field.
Beaudy and Richie are not doing that for us.
We are under the pump in our own half for a disproportionate amount of time.

Some of the pre match talk coming out of the ab camp about wanting to make a statement is looking a bit comical now

Hey didn't Telea and Roigard play well! Shame about the other 21. I found that excruciating with everything so slowed down. Wasn't the game meant to be sped up this year.
Anyways we can't cope with this style of officiating against an ultra powerful team. We'll done South Africa

Was still played and with our best team available foster collected another record, worst ever loss outright. To go with his previous equal worst ever loss. And first loss to Argentina's. Twice. Lowest ever world ranking. Worst loss versus Oz. Worst loss versus France. Home Series lots in Pro era. Etc etc

I’ll be honest I thought the team seemed flat during the Anthem and Haka, just like their minds were already on France. SA to their credit were excellent and must be a serious challenger for the cup.

A statement was made, flat track bullies only
