What were the odds on that pre game
-
Both our hookers were disappointing, Jordie is still not a wing, Ardie is not a no. 8, Mounga was inaccurate, Frizzell/ Tuipolotu not providing impact to go with size - lost contact, Reiko not a centre.

Reiko not a centre.
That pass he dropped could epitomise his Test career at 13 (which he isn't). Two unbelievably dumb mistakes by him this year which have proved way too costly.
Get him on the wing in place of JB - he was bloody good there last week
-
I’m really looking forward to the Wallaby Puma game, might Ben a game I can actually enjoy. I wonder what the mood around camp will be like next few weeks.

@hydro11 the running game is about creating space. We were not moving ball into space and when we did Reiko dropped it.

It seems like a fair bit of that did come from the breakdown. They slowed our ball down well there.

This team has the most Blues players in it that we've seen in a while. I don't believe in coincidences.

I always wonder why, when the game is over, or almost over, there seems to be this massive step up in urgency. Why not earlier?
Seems like a team mental attitude. If they aren't up at half-time they seem to panic - unless they score pretty much straight away.
Then it's panic mode and after that, throw everything at the other side.
They played like they expected to win.

Yep. And that always goes well, doesn't it?

He was playing wing when that happened I thought.

We don't play Scotland any time soon do we?

First time ABs have had back-to-back losses since 2011.
So a good omen for what lies ahead?

@Marty said in Argentina One: Parramatta, 14 November:
World has been reeling AB's in since 2015, this was sadly inevitable. Feel bad for Cane.
It's because we haven't addressed our weaknesses.

One of which is we don't produce world class players at the rate we used to.

Gatland and now Foster should perhaps select some locks and loose forwards to play alongside him. It’d be new thing for both teams this year to have someone else turn up at the breakdown...
