England v All Blacks
-
So will there be any changes next week now that we’ve lost this game?
-
The obvious hard calls are:
BB retires,
Taylor becomes captain,
Roigard vice captain,
Jordan goes to wing,
I'd put JB at 15
QT, LF mid field,
DMac 10 and kicks -

It feels like someone wrote the headline before watching the match. The penalty count was 2:1 in New Zealand's favour......

NZ media are complicit in the making of the current malaise
Crap! If we need the media to tell us what's wrong we got bigger problems. than I thought. The problem is in the team and coaching team is probably part of it.

We've all forgotten about getting fucked over by the officials because we were so shit.
Yes the officiating was terrible.
We still deserved to loseAgreed. We could have overcome. But you will never see a yellow card like that ever again in international rugby.
Did you see the Italy/SA game earlier. It made my eyes bleed
What yellow card are you referring to?
The red card
The red card that was a perfect example of when you should red card, that one? The one where a guy threw his shoulder into an attacking player minus the ball, with force and intent? The one with no intent to tackle?
That one?

QT, LF mid field,
DMac 10 and kicksI'd keep JB (once fit again) in the midfield and put Ruben Love at 15, but I agree with the rest.

I really worry if we think LF at centre is an answer, I didn't think Proctor was bad, but more even on wing LF is pretty slow to turn etc in defence.

What a contrast with the Boks

They are there to hold the coach and NZRU to account supposedly. Because they aren’t listening to Joe Public

I would settle for the Foster era right now!

No problem with that. QT deserves to be there somewhere

I think it’s difficult for Razor to get rid of the ill discipline within the All Blacks from the Foster era. We see it in the Chiefs & why they can’t win important games & it’s rares it head in the All Blacks
Yeah I struggle to see how Razor's failings can't be laid at the feet of foster and the players.
Razor didn't select these players and hasn't been allowed any coaching input until today.
