Australia look a better drilled side under Mal's coaching
-
@kiwiinmelb no surprise when you consider his reign with Queensland.
My god that was woeful defence, fat Thaiday strolls through the line, next play they score.
Fuck we're shit.
Game over
-
this is woeful
-
Things not looking good for kidwell ,
Not sure if it has anything to do with coaching , but it's gone downhill since he took over
-
The Kiwis don't have any bite in them with Kidwell at the helm, guys like Taumalolo and Proctor are just trying to avoid injury for the next NRL round.
My money is on Stephen Kearney becoming head coach for the RLWC at the end of the year, with a new head coach in 2019 (probably Stacey Jones).
-
@kiwiinmelb not sure what the problem is.
If you listen to any commentator before the game, they kept saying this is a top Kiwi side 'on paper'.....
On paper they're right, in reality they're fucking dreaming.
Don't know what the issue is, but 90% of the time we get made to look silly no matter who's in the coaches box.
-
I have learnt my lesson. I always knew our backs were nowhere near the class of the Roos' backs, but I rated our pack fairly highly, even though they were dominated by Australia last year. After tonight though, I hope this myth about our dominant forward pack is never brought up again. Australia had a couple of guys missing and still had the more impressive forwards.
-
what is surprising for me , is how passive our forwards look , playing into their hands IMO with a lack of aggression,
the reason the kiwi forwards are rated highly going into the game , in australia as well , not just NZ , is their individual club form
'
Right now , its looking like Mal has instilled that ingredient he had in the QLD side , where the lesser fancied pack , dominates the more fancied pack -
Well, if true, it is safe to say that positive culture in the Kiwis is well and truly gone:
Man allegedly sold cocaine to Kiwis players in Canberra after Anzac Test
A man faces court for allegedly selling cocaine to two players from the Kiwis, captain Jesse Bromwich and back-rower Kevin Proctor, after the Anzac Test in Canberra.

Sky news reporting Bromwich and Proctor on CCTV "consuming white powder"

In their defence it's not like this stuff comes up in the news, they have more important things to report on. Nope, can't recall the last time a player was named in the media...........
