An example is that they stuck one loose forward (typically Ioane and Savea) on either wing, or wide but not on the wing, in every game against Australia. It worked well for capitalising on turnovers, and quick and wide ball, with speedy ball carriers, cleanout options, and next phase options out there. Then we did exactly the same thing two games in a row against South Africa, and most of the time the ball didn't get out to there. No thought to bringing Ioane into the midfield and putting Taylor into the wing area consistently. Or just using the loose forwards tighter ...

Amazing that people still refuse to blame the coach.
Why even watch sport if you are so defeatist? We can't pull players out of thin air and the vast majority of our best players have been selected. Sack Foster and at the very least we have a chance.
If my bladder was bursting and he was on fire and burning to death in front of me etc.

The constant fuck up here is the Coaching staff.
The only team we seem to have a good game plan against is Australia.
Our defence is passive, our forward positioning, use, and selection is poor, and our attack and structure haven't changed for about 8 years.
We are poorly coached, and have the same problems as every other year.
Totally agree , it’s going to bad until after the WC by the looks of things,
This 4 year cycle between WCs wasted. -

Yep it’s pretty obvious sack the Idiot, or this will keep happening for 2 more years.

This 4 year cycle between WCs wasted.Our loose trio (Ardie excepted) have promise but are young and inexperienced. Tight 5 are not the force they once were. We lack a dominant controlling 10 and our midfield is a puzzle yet to be solved. Lean days for ABs supporters right now

Yes Foster has stuffed that as well.

Who is selecting and coaching them, that’s the problem.

He's part of the problem, and doesn't seem to able to provide solutions

Or this could be the peak...

Had to chuckle that we were criticising the Boks for their bomb tactics but that was literally all we were doing for most of the first half.
Absolutely clueless shit. No depth, no structure. Been the same for a few years now. Guess what? It doesn't work.

The NZRFU should realise Fozz needs help. If Razor was willing to do it I would install him as the 2IC. It might help us immediately and it will be Razor's lead in to assuming the top job after the WC
Sounds a bit like 1991 though…

Yeah, it's time to get rid of a couple of assistants. McLeod has shown nothing over the last 4 years and the defence is still far too passive. Same goes for Mooar, no innovation whatsoever on attack, it's just so predictable.

Yeah that is the risk. But maybe he can help, certainly can't make it worse. Razor gets a get out of jail free card for it

Last god knows how many years we have struggled to get enough possession.

They certainly aren't a patch on GH-Smith-Hansen. Three guys with test head coaching experience
