Bledisloe #1

I haven't read the thread so I may be repeating what has been said, but this game shows how much we miss BBBR. The forwards got outplayed and outmsucled. If you don't have the ball it's hard to win any match. Franks confirmed he is well past it and Moody didn't exactly do much better. Hansen needs to make some tough decisions for Auckland.

That's the whole problem in the way the 10-15 combo works at the moment. Barrett as the senior player is way too dominant. That was esp clear in the first half. It's not just a matter of RM taking control; it's also a matter of BB letting him take control.
So it's not working
Pick BB at 10 and Smith in his best position. That works.
No, keep RM and BB at 10 and 15. BB should allow RM to take control. Drop BFA and give Ennor the starting 14 jersey.

I for one have long cut this coaching team plenty of slack, they earnt it.
But they have eroded all my confidence in their abilities in the past few months.
We look directionless, devoid of ideas, with little punch, and the way guys are playing, out of form too.
I think this might be the next nail in the Fozzie coffin too, even a RWC win might not save him at this point.

Ah, another TSF meltdown. Everyone completely overreacting as usual.
oh you can absolutely fuck up. You are opinionless, a massive AB suck up. And, becasue a few of your darlings were the worst on the field tonight, no one should say anything? piss right off, this is as bad as i can remember us in years
Piss off yourself. I can say what I want.
and continue to prove you know fuck all and are basically a suck up

I agree but who plays #14
Brdige who plays #11 & #15
Move Rieko to #14
Sevu Reece.... Naholo
That leaves #6 and #14 as 2 biggest problems ATM for New Zealand
Then there's the case of props who're not looking too flash They're passengers who you never see except for scrum time
If Sio & AAA can vastly outshine Moody & Franks Imagine what SA, ENG IRISH, FRENCH props could do........

So it BBs fault that RM is playing poorly. Got it.
Hilarious

If ever there is a silver lining, this is a bloody good one!

@mariner4life If you know another winger in the squad that isn't a Crusader, please tell!
-
@taniwharugby God I hope so. Even the thought of Foster head coaching the AB's gives me hives.

@Kirwan RM wasn't playing poorly.
Yes, that chip kick in the 22 to nobody was awesomeness

@Jaguares4real
Ennor would be my pick. But he should've had a good run before now.
