Why so much hate for John Mitchell, I would take 82% WR at the moment.

@chimoaus Maybe because he was an absolute knob

That this is even a possible headline on the Stuff front page:

Yeahtheboys

I thought it was a coaching Masterclass from Fozzie against Namibia. Putting 70 against an international team is some effort

Well they are leading the pool aren't they? Can only beat what is in front of you..

Much like Vodanovich following Allen...

Or much like that 1970's Coaching-Jesus that was Bob Duff taking over from Vodanovich...

Wairau

The match against Italy is Fozzie's last chance to get a record with the ABs, maybe his subconcious mind will be leading him towards a loss.

Another Foster first: First AB coach to lose a pool game and get thru to the 1/4 finals.

Considering we did it with 13 at one point, I'll take that

Is Foster the first coach to let one of his team get thier leg sliced open?
First AB coach to keep Uruguay scoreless!

He's racking up these firsts.
