The Silver Fern

Open with Dipak

Thank you Dane Coles
At your peak GOAT AB

Well that added some spice to the AB team announcement. Guaranteed bitchfest on the TSF coming soon.

There's too much negativity on here. We can still win this.
Didn't have a shit show vs SA after 15 minutes man down and penalty avalanche.
Schmidt and Ryan are smart will adapt.
Cut out all cute shite inside our own half.
Use JB's boot more.
Value territory more.
Fast paced pick n goes.
Patience be prepared to go through the phases.
We have played some outstanding rugby in the last 9 months. We can do it

I'm thinking not selecting DMac as first five was a mistake

Still scratching my head in disbelief that compared to a year ago we have some devastating wingers, a solid 2nd five, RM and SF fulfilling their potential, Sco Bar Beast mode activated and a front row.
By crikey the gods are smiling.

DMac deserves a lot more love on here. Won the game for us.

Patty was massive before the drop

Maintain discipline now
Whitelock and Read have been awesome

Sotutu or Jacobson havent had a fair go this tour. Both decent players

Come on Foz you got this

Come on Foz you got this

Let's be honest the first 30 was shite

Haven't seen all the match yet but some of those long Barrett kicks I saw were literally match savers.
Jordie is indispensible now.

In reality everyone on here should be happy. We have got a decent shot at the WC.
12 months ago we really were playing tiddlywinks.

We didnt lose because of our backs. Our forwards got monstered. In the scrums, in the lineouts and at the breakdowns.

This is the most comprehensive defeat my middle age brain can remember

@Landers92 Have you got the Hollandaise Sauce?

@Kirwan Over the past 3 years NZR have made huge mistakes.
This feels like death by a thousand cuts

One more game Sir Foz

Rugby didn't deserve rain
Frustrated
No complaint with Barnes
SA deserved to win
We weren't sharp enough mentally
