You can't put this down to Foster at all. The cards were all bad rugby from the players on the field. Nothing Foster can do about that.
He selected them., He coaches them. This is his game plan.

You can put lots of tonight at the feet of Foster, based on twenty years of watching and supporting Foster coached teams. The cards might be novel, but there's still plenty of groundhog day about the way a Foster selected and coached side drifts in and out of a game.

We have to study the way Ireland create space. Its apparently legal.
It's pretty smart (puke). Players directly in front of the ball carrier leads to passive tackling and then immediate ruck cleaners.

So we lose tonight, what are the odds we go back to back off a.performance like this...

Ireland are putting bodies in front of the ball at the contact point ffs

Tactics and substitutions rest on Fozzie's shoulders.
But we were in a shit position before then anyway.
Due to the tactics? Agree wholeheartedly

If we do. Foster will really have to consider his position.
He will, won't he?

That would presume a level of insight.
