Not hugely confident we beat the wallabies
Completely down to the number of injuries in the Oz camp. If they have a fit side I think they roll us.

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.

He's an utter shit. A total and utter fucking shit.

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.

Isn't Robinson leaving?

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.

Exactly right. S Barrett, B Barrett, Savea are spineless morons who don’t have a tactical bone in their bodies

Ethan Hooker. He attacked the line and competed in the air.

I will even take Foster at this stage. Joseph over Razor any day.

When the coach is naming some players to throw them under the bus in the post-match interview it is time for him to walk away

@Victor-Meldrew Yes, you’re right. Robertson was Robinson’s decision. But Robinson is a dead man walking, his contract up at the end of the year, which I think makes it almost certain that Robertson will have to walk the plank as well.

Wow, Razor looks clueless. Laura lobbing him soft balls.

Razor looks like he’s going to cry

TBF, he was captain of the ABs when the legacy started being trashed ... this rot started under him and Hansen.

Love your irony.
I don’t have answers. I don’t know where to go from here.

Perhaps look for problems beyond the coaching staff.? Stop believing in magic solutions?
Schmidt, Enoka and others you have to respect, have pointed the finger firmly at NZR . Hopefully the new blood will improve things

Major problem tonight was the game plan.
I barely remember us using our forwards. It was all pass it deeper and deeper to a backline who were static. Or some type of retarded kick that will come off once in a blue moon.
BB is cooked, let’s get DMac in there and start using his superior passing game. And blood a couple of young 10’s who’s first instinct isn’t to kick the ball away.
We’ve picked big bodies in the forwards, so why can’t we use them properly. Let’s get them crashing onto the ball at full pace instead of getting it flat footed.
Watching SA running onto the ball into space was great to watch, reminds me of what we used to do many moons ago.
Some honesty from those in charge would be nice too. Fuck off with your bullshit and tell it how it is, we sucked and we sucked fucking badly.
First problem to solve is find wingers who can catch a god damn box kick, or find someone who can teach us very quickly. All of their momentum came from catching kicks.
And fuck that stupid stadium, why do we keep playing there?
