Also, fuck off Tony Brown. You could have been helping us, mate.
He's a massive fluffybunny.

I don't blame him for not wanting to work with the combover.

Well
Once the final passes stuck you knew it was going to be a steamrolling
SA running on to the ball at pace
NZ static and shovelling on
Christie incident could and should have been pivotal
Penalty in good field position and a Bok (Weisse I think) in the bin and NZ could have played their way back into contention
But that aside SA were finding big gaps all night
I fucking hate the box kick but you can see why SA used it
Wales are going to get shit on by NZ in November but we should be box kicking all night

My wife is out at a work conference full of South Africans, she's super pissed.
Mrs Meldrew is with Mr Meldrew. He's pissed too.

The weirdest thing is… we were ahead at half time. Even the ref wasn’t that much of a factor. This one’s squarely on us.

As soon as we lost the lead I had no confidence we would regain it.
Ive seen this movie before.

Jeez. How awful have we been on the 2nd half? Fuck
Thought your boys played bravely.

I assume it's not intended to but that reads as very patronising, that was one of the most cowardly AB performances on record. In the last 20 minutes they just gave up.

Hard not to see this debacle as the last will and testament of the disastrous regime of Mark Robinson as CEO of NZR, who departs at the end of this calendar year. In fact, he should be clearing his desk right away. David Kirk, a business head I respect, should bring in a hard arse CEO willing to demand results or else. Razor, I think, is gone. He’s incompetent, utterly found out as a pretender. He’s incoherent, if nothing else and gives no indication that he has any idea whatsoever what he is trying to achieve. That incoherence is felt by the players, who look adrift. The easy decision would be to just f&&k off the assistants, but I think the pattern of these performances stems from a lack of coherent direction from the top. In short, he’s an idiot, a provincial showboater promoted way beyond his ability.

Look out, here comes some ‘insight’ from Mils and Reado

At least Kieran stated the obvious: there's something wrong when the spine of an All Blacks team turns to jelly.

Only Roigard and Higgins can save us now
Love your irony.
I don’t have answers. I don’t know where to go from here.
Two words

Who needs to be fired to get him to come back?

Reinach was superb. He’s a far better player than the alternative in the way he gets them moving forward.
Can’t stand losing to the Boks. The worst thing in rugby. They were superb in that second half and suffocated us. We made poor decisions but the pressure got to far too many ABs in that period.

If they get rid of Roberston and Holland I fully expect Mark Robinson to replace them with Rob Penny and Matt Todd

Robertson is Robinson's boy. Too much invested in him.

When does Robinson F off?

A few things i noticed
- Scrum has gone to pieces. Both starters and bench struggled aside from one penalty. Lineout fell apart when Brodie M came on
- We actually came out playing enterprising footy but that died a sudden death after about 25 minutes.
- Defensive highballs, we win maybe 30-40% at best. Then we started trying to do it, and there was barely an all black within 5m of the catcher, thats actually fucking absurd. We have absolutely no answer. How do we make it look so hard, and how does this tactic only flow one way
