Postives: Smith still great, Paps awesome, Whitelock a good leader, Havili and AB beginning to gel, Bower better than expected.
And RM
That miss on defence means you can't say he had a good game. That was truely below AB level.
Good goalkicking and a well taken try (and almost set up a pearler) but that was terrible defence.
That is seriously clutching at straws. One miss and his game is below AB level? FFS
I said, very clearly, that sort of defence is below AB level.

@victor-meldrew he seems the ideal man when leading the Crusaders....
I think whatever way they are trying to play is putting themselves in poor places causing them to concede.
Given that 20 min period was probably the best under Foster, it makes you wonder if it was the players just playing what was in front of them, given it all fell apart when the subs came on and they probably went out to play whatever plan they had for them

Mounga clearly had a good game.
He kicked well and got a good intercept try. But in the first half he didn’t get us around the field, defended badly and again was hidden on the wing on defence.
Will bite us on the bum one day.

@sparky why because we dont play retarded 10 man boxkickathon shit like South Africa and the old enemy?
I think both teams have some great talent coming through and we will go well at the next RWC. Both teams packs to me seem like they can genuinely muscle up but also marry that with a bit of backline play.
Fuck it. Straya will never win at Eden Park but we put some good play together and if not for a loose 20 minutes and uncharacteristic goalkicking would've been right in it.

When we took him off it almost did bite us in the Bum, our attack ceased to exist.
And we let in a shit load of tries. -

Too many subs contributed to that, we started losing scrums and conceding lots of penalties.

That's a really good point. But no problems with Whitelock, more that there seems to be something collectively missing with the senior players.
Pre-2017, when things weren't going to plan, you'd see the likes of Nonu, Whitelock, Conrad etc having little chats with each other and more often than not, there'd be a penalty won or a turnover from a midfield tackle and the momentum would swing back to the AB's,
Perhaps there's a culture issue Foster needs to address or they don't have much confidence in Foster and his gameplan?

Agree. Our depth in a few positions is very, very shallow.

@Victor-Meldrew it's almost certainly the lack of confidence in the game plan. We have the talent, and when we hit our straps we are very difficult to contain, but overall we are disjointed. That all comes back to the coaching team.
I almost lost my shit when Jordie went to the wing again. Just so fucking dumb. He either starts at 15 or he's not in the 23, I just don't understand what they are doing with him; his performances on the wing are worse than Bridge and sooooo far below what you'd expect of an AB winger.

Bad coaching we had mometuem
RM, Akira were playing their best minutes ,and we take them off and give mometuem to the Aussies take, no vision by the coaching staff. -

Considering Reece had played well,The standard went right down.

Have to get BB in form, otherwise DMac will be ten if RM gets injured. Things can get worse.
