Could Ian Foster be the new Wayne Smith...
He's not even as good as the old Wayne Smith.

I generally try to post with (attempted) humour or insight but...
Fuck off, Foster, you hopeless piece of shit.

I wouldn't sack him yet. Over the Hansen years we had a lot of insipid performances but we usually bounced back and got the job done. It didn't always happen but there were plenty of examples when it did. This team can't win if they don't blow a team away. We should beat Argentina easy but I would almost like to see us actually win a close one.

I wonder if Foster should pull another 10 players from the Mitre 10 cup ..?..because the ones that he’s pulled to sit in the stands with their number 1s on have helped ..

@hydro11 shouldn't this week have been the bounce?
Sorry badly worded. I meant under Hansen, we put in a bad performance but won anyway. Like the game where Fekitoa scored to beat the Aussies in the last minute or the game in Dunedin where we went 3 tries down. Now we aren't getting results out of bad performances.
-
This is exactly how the All Blacks will be under Foster. This is nothing to do with what he’s inherited from Steve.
This erratic level of performance is entirely how Foster coached the Chiefs for years, and clearly he’s learnt nothing. Even his 2009 team that got to the final got smashed at the final hurdle.
-
The Wallabies should be quite scared. They beat the ABs, but now have to face a decent Argentinian side..
-
Let's be honest about the last five years. A drawn series against the Lions. We followed that up by losing to Ireland. Then an insipid performance in a RWC semifinal. Now we've lost to fucking Argentina.
What's the common denominator?
-
Foster? He was part of the winning 2015 RWC team but I never knew exactly what he did..
-
I think the method that worked well when Ted retired, handing the reins to shag , the assistant, had to backfire eventually if they kept using that as the blueprint , it’s not rocket science that the assistant may not necessarily be the best candidate.
Here we are potentially looking at it failing next time they tried it .

Sack Foster now.
He should be fired tomorrow. Plumtree can look after the team for the final hame of the season.

Forget the How is Fozzie going question, what is being said over at NZR HQ?

They left their tiny brains behind when they appointed Foster in the first place. A nice man, but clearly never up to the task of leading the ABs through an era of sustained success.
