Springboks vs All Blacks I
-
If it is indeed a return to the gold Rolex era of reffing in the Republic, then can we please bring back:
- rucking
- no lifting at the lineout
- no hold set engage rubbish
- 4 point tries
-
So can we win the next game?
-
Probably one of the worst AB losses I have ever seen given the context.
We were in complete control. 15 mins left we're in their 22. If we score there this game becomes a blowout.
Ignore the refereeing, we completely blew the game that last 15.
Failed exists, knockons, DUMB penalties (Finau literally given multiple warnings and ignores the ref).
Dumb dumb dumb completely unnecessary loss.
And with that the rugby championship should also be gone now.Disgusting loss.

If I see the panel on the breakdown all stoic and philosophical this week I’m going to put my telly through the fucking window..
It would be your own fault for watching The Breakdown
I’m still going to watch it and be angry.
I’m a degenerate recidivist gambler.

This might force NZR to allow overseas players back. SF would have been an improvement over Finau.
-
PS overall I thought Jordie was good and Ioane serviceable. But yeah he doesn't seem to be making the metres he used to.

If you're going to spend the post match making fucked up calls I'm out.

And razor is possibly on track to lose 4 or 5 games in his first season.
This is the sort of stuff that ends careers, be it coaches or players.
Injury and losses were Fosters best selectors. I expect the trend to continue.

I’d love Rieko on the wing. He is castrated at centre.

As was Barrett and Savea.

@kpkanz it will be a very hard loss for Scooter to take as captain. There will be a few tough lessons for him (and the team) when he rewatches the film next week and especially that last 10-15.
It reminds me of that 2004 loss and Umaga’s first as captain in the Republic. Some lessons handed out that day for him as a captain.
Oh well onwards and upwards we hope and we get a chance next weekend.

There was some dumb, dumb shit - esp in the last 10-15 minutes - but I didn't think we were that bad. This was against one of the great teams playing at home and a completely random ref - and yet we lost narrowly.

From a large lead. Bad.
