Half the time it looks like our backline were introduced during the anthems.
I used to post that we needed a settled combination at 12/13 that didn't break after 10 minutes but stopped as I was sounding like a cracked record.....

@Kirwan You love twisting my words. Why don't you focus on someone else on the Fern for change?
How about stop telling people how to spend their time because they criticise your favourite players?

A couple of things to put this into perspective:
(a) 2017 Lions test two: SBW sent off after 15 minutes, we lose 24 - 21
(b) Hansen was the head coach of the Welsh national team, becoming the ninth Welsh coach in 13 years, after Graham Henry parted company with the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) in 2002. During his first game in charge, Wales performed well but lost by 37–33 to France. This became a familiar theme during his tenure as coach. Events reached a head during 2003 when for the first time in their history Wales lost every match in the Six Nations Championship and went on to record a streak of 11 consecutive Test match defeats, broken by a defeat of rugby minnows Romania on 27 August 2003, though Hansen was not the coach for this match.

@Kirwan Ah, so you love spending your time twisting my words. Okay then.
Certainly can spare time to point out your fluffing of Crusader players.
Noteworthy you’ve had to resort to ad hominem attacks as it’s impossible to defend this result.

so, anyone think that 23 is favourites for the World Cup now? That is a catastrophic loss as far as i am concerned,

Just saying "he was shit" isn't criticism, it's just shitposting.
Shit chips to nowhere seem to be gameplan that's why ALB and Rangitoto Beauden were doing them too. RM took the ball to the line well, found his support, and set plays as well as he could have with his halfback being monstered and little support from his pack.
Interested to see if you have any other examples of him being "shit".

Well this was a long time coming. We look tired and slow out there. Flat track bully Mo'unga needs to go to the bench. Most non-Crusaders fans could see that he can't play without front foot ball, get Barrett back at 10 asap with Smith at 15. Hansen really has fucked up with our unsettled midfield and his refusal to bring through Luatua/Ioane at 6, instead trying every other 6 in NZ rugby to avoid the issue in the hope that one of them would come off when most of them were nowhere near good enough. Our tarting props are fucken slugs out there who can hold the scrum up and that's it.
Dare I say Jordie Barrett to the right wing? He's not the most loved player out there but he seems to be the only option so far. He's a safer bet than the other options and I'd rather have him out there ahead of Bridge and Reece.

you know what, i half agree with you. RM was not the reason we lost that. BUT
He is the 10. He is supposed to be in charge of our team. And i no way would the coaches have him in such a tight leash he can only do one thing. He was poor today, really poor. Not all his fault, but he didn't help himself.

What's wrong with Reece at 14?
Terrible defence at SR and NPC level. Caught out of position against Argentina.

Well if that all I was saying you’d be right, but thanks for the strawman.
It’s a failed experiment. The dual playmaker thing didn’t work with McKenzie either.
For all his faults BB is the best ten in the squad, it’s why we looked better in patches when he came up from fullback. When RM is at first receiver, the backline looks terrible.
