Not at all, but you can't ignore that was a historic home series defeat. If it was one loss you probably wouldn't mind it, but after losing the first one, to drop the second and third, including that embarrassing first half in the third test was abysmal. I don't want to live in the past, but you can't rewrite history.
Ireland losing the first one, don’t you mean. We played quite well in that test.
Not to mention that Foster's coaching was flawless...
Wait.. -

Pointed out in the Aotearoa Rugby Pod, if the Boks win, they would have done it having faced all the other 5 of the top 6 ranked nations.
If ABs win, they will have beaten two world number one ranked teams in the same tournament

I could be wrong, but I don't think when Hansen was coach he EVER beat the number one ranked team. Not once.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

I would take the opposite view. Really focus, relax, catch the ball, min 50:50s, throw straight and there will be minimal scrums.

What would be freaking hilarious is if we stopped doing that high ball without chasers shit and executed exits with perfection. That would be a right mindfuck.
It's all so weird. It's one thing to hold back a bit and play conservatively. Powder dry etc etc. But this team has struggled to get even the fundamentals right. Just look at the game against France. Yet now the skill level, accuracy and execution are off the chart. It's like a switch was flicked. How does that even happen? If this truly was Foster's grand plan then I will personally place a bucket of KFC at his doorstep, write humble on a pie and eat it.
