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.
Totall agree , it’s going to bad until after the WC by the looks of things,
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
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

@chris well at least we have put paid to the peaking in between RWC bs!
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

@canefan doubt he'd want to be tarnished if this keep going the way they are, also makes it better for him coming in at a lower point.
Probably. Not that anyone would hold him accountable. We might have to accept that 2019-23 will be a lost period

@tim said in All Blacks v Ireland, 2021 NH Tour:
So that's three losses in the last five games against Ireland? We really love trying the same shit and hoping for a different result.
Our last win was in the RWC QF? We were amazing up front that day, but those sort of games seem to be the exception not the rule
-
I hope someone asks Foster if he should resign. A hard hitting question from a journalist. No structure at all. No control in the forwards. Total failure. Notice how our 2nd half try came off front foot ball in the forwards. We have learned nothing but who of us had high hopes for Foster.

Lowe and JGP are Maori. Not white guys with Irish grannies but Maori, facing the haka and winning. Fucking hilarious. This is the future the NZRU chose with Foster.
Not sure Foster can take this blame.
Watching them celebrate as hard as they did really tore into me.
It really really hurt.

NZ Covid journalism doesn’t raise hope.

According to some posters on here, it isn't his fault. Let's just accept mediocrity and go gently into that goodnight.Players are selected and do what they are told for the most part. Foster has zero success as a head coach. As another poster said, who is chasing him outside NZ? No one, because he is shaite.
Let's go the Aussie route with cricket and League if we are accepting this level of coaching.
