Should we be really worried that both McDonald and Holland are in the ABs coaching setup next year.
No. Otherwise we'll have reincarnations of all the Foster threads.

The off sides by the Japan XV at the last serious of rucks and not picked up by this official is disgraceful

Weber is so slow getting the ball out. Our backs are under pressure before they even get the ball.
The number of times he has to change his mind cos he takes so long to decide in the 1st place.... ruck clean outs not helping but he should be better
-
Such a polite looking crowd

Pass looked fine to me
Yeah fired it on the halfway, caught just over it. Seems harsh when you consider how it's supposed to be judged

Sheesh give the ball to Love
-
AB XV sucking in the big ones - which is fair in the heat and humidty.
Poor execution, and some head scratching tactics -
eg Akira on sideline when we could really use his presence at ruck times etc. And the desire to spin it wide too quickly I feel -
@Jailbreak7 Even Weber is a better goal kicker. Saved by the post.
-
Reasonable first half, considering heat etc and first game. I find it pretty interesting watching the ref too, we have read enough comments the NH will kill us at breakdown, I think this fella fairly lax myself.
Also didn't realise that Mitchell was in Japanese camp. -

Oh, how the fabled New Zealand rugby depth has seemingly evaporated over the last decade
I think better coaching might have seen a better performance.
Where's Clayton?
In the coaches box next to MacDonald and Hansen?
