@Windows97 I have this terrible feeling that Blackadder will be brought straight back into the starting lineup at 6 once fit again. I believe he has started every game he's been fit for this season...
Ugh. If that happens Razor really is an idiot

No I don't reckon that will happen now,Maybe on the bench.
Great. Let's weaken the impact of our bench, which has suddenly become a strength without EB, and Jacobsen

I don’t think it will it will weaken it,Cane is gone next year do there is a gap in that 23.
But people have their particular dislikes of players no matter what. -

But people have their particular dislikes of players no matter what.If he plays well and justifies his selection I will be more than happy. But I see higher ceiling with Lakai off the bench. EB might be able to play Cane's role though

I like Lakai as well I can see him adding some real impact at 7.

Shit I like this new coaching group. They seem to know what they’re doing after all.
Some of you guys should read back what you write during the games.Coaching the ABs is a results based business,
Win you will be a hero , lose you will be the opposite,
And It’s never been any different
There was similar negativity with Henry and Hansen at times and they took us through our most successful era .
It was a long time ago, but the difference being I don't recall injury being their best selector.
Yeah fair , I guess I’m just saying not everyone was onboard with their appointments
I don't think ANYBODY has ever been "against" Razor's appointment.
The only thing anybody has ever been against was the wank-hype. And then the early results. (and selections) -
@Chris 💯 shows theres some work going on from the forwards coach which is pleasing to see
Loved how they dictated where Ireland had to throw its bit like setting a trap -

I think he's our future there personally. I hope he gets a decent crack there next season. Huge fan of what Papali'i has done at the Blues but at international level he, Blackadder and Jacobsen are just placeholders.

Oh yeah, forgot about Papaaili. Amazing the difference Wallace has made. I salivate thinking how our back row might go with Lakai and Wallace back together again.

I'm not sure I buy that. You reckon Ireland are only calling the lineout once they're set or changing the call when they see where the defenders go? Can't say I've ever seen any team with that system.

The only thing anybody has ever been against was the wank-hype. And then the early results. (and selections)Totally this. IIRC the general opinion was positive about him taking over. It was just when he did his best low mark Fozzie impersonation and picked a bunch of undeserving no marks that I turned on him

Loved how they dictated where Ireland had to throw its bit like setting a trapYep it was really good tactics,then they split the lifter away from the jumper so they couldn’t get any momentum.

Gawd Jeff Wilson is a punishing listen on the Breakdown ( i know I am a day late but still..)
-
I dont recall the ref giving any penalties (maybe one but that was williams) for not rolling away, all the rest where for not releasing.
I thought Ratima played really well under the circumstances at the ruck but ne needed to learn how to communicate with ref when there are irishmen just lying about at the back of the ruck impeding his access to the ball. -
Also whats the new ruling about defending a high ball chase? The commentators seemed to suggest its a new tweak but could understand why we got pinged when no one obviously changed their line. Was I just blind?

Agree completely, what absolute nonsense from him.
