There is no shame in losing a test to this Ireland team
If we'd lost by a couple of points with 14 men it would have been progress and we could have said we fought back well from adversity.
But we lost our heads - again.

@Victor-Meldrew Foster is fucking useless, sack the prick and bring on Razor. Like I said we will not win the RWC with him in charge.

Hard disagree. There is and should be.
This Ireland team lost to France. Could point out all the weaknesses in their side but it's been done to death.
Lost to France. In Paris. By 3 points.

@stodders bullshit statement, there is a lot of shame in ABs losing. We have a winning culture, stop making excuses now you are making us sound like Wallabies.
No. The shame comes from the headless, mindless performance. Losing in and of itself is not shameful. Ireland are a good team. ABs can't win like in the past against them if they are off their game.

A few of us have said this.
Im beginning to wonder how much is due to the assistant coaches, Foster strikes me as someone who delegates. -

Foster is only part of the problem or might not be the problem at all. But I'm just not convinced he's the one to fix it.
bring on Razor
If only it was that simple.

I'm still spitting about the 'taking the player past the ruck' calls. there's some made up shit in there
Like the one the Irish did before their second try? No consistency from Peyper.
Who is the ref next week? Methinks there'll be some interesting chats from both sets of coaches with him next week when they ask for "clarifications".
-
@MiketheSnow Yellow card and red card while calling for uncontested scrums means New Zealand should've played with 12.

Can someone please decipher that?
Nope. Rugby...how to make a simple game more complicated. This will bring the new viewers in in droves!

@Bovidae Pointed out to the ref by the Irish after the first test. Irish media all over it all week. Smart!
Yep. The Irish coaches and media worked in unison all week. Clever.
Can NZ do the same this week?
