Probably too late now but would have loved to see Caleb get a run at 12 at a lower level to see what it looks like

Yeah, I was thinking that earlier today. Caleb Clarke may well prove to be a natural 12 in time.

Scott Barrett YC remains rightly a Yellow.
Laughable that it was ever on review. The game is broken.

Moan about it, lament what has happened but we do seem to be the team that hasn’t adapted to the changes and it seems we are the most carded side still

Go back and watch the two tests against the Boks and tell me if we are still the only team doing it.

He did the kicks in 16/17 too. His game management has always been poor.

There has to be a serious rethink for next year. We are going backwards FFS.
I think they’re missing some areas of technical/tactical coaching. It’s raw but I actually don’t mind the overall picture. Also not sure Razor is someone who can give a rousing shed speech.
Theming alone is not enough at test level. Razor is finding that out.

Agree. I think he’s still got potential as a head coach/man manager, but outside of Ryan, I’m not sure his support team are quite up to it. Also, time will tell whether Barrett is a captain.

@Darth-Sader It's going to see what comes out of the End of Year review. I doubt all the coaching group will be returning in 2025..

Well this 30 mins sums up my view of the the ABs this season.

This ref sucks.
Of course he does. He's French.
We've been crap, but feel like we are being forced to kick in some ways because the breakdown is such a mess - and that is on the ref. Italy consistently with their hands in there, and going off their feet.

Who else though, Ardie? Nah. We need one of the young fullas to come through.

Once upon a time in a galaxy far far away .. we would have flooded the rucks and smashed them out of there...
