    @Gunner Maybe they were actually being kind by saving you from watching it?

      Not sure we will win with more X factor players. We need players that do their core roles well. Two lost lineouts on their line, missed touch finder on penalty, chip kicking to defence, catch and pass in critical moments, dropping the ball in malls, lack of urgency across the game. Fuck X factor players. They can be X factor after they do the basics.

      You mean exactly like how Argentina played today?

            @chimoaus don't ask that shit stirrer😉, your eyes and gut feel are correct mate.

            That's a group of capable rugby players not focussed in a believable direction. No layers to their game

              So what’s Foster gonna do now?

              Don’t have your supposed best XV to fall back on.

                Yep, I just can’t find a shit to give about this. 5 years ago you could count on one hand the teams that had won a test match against the All Blacks. Now?

                  This was dumb from the All Blacks and it looked even dumber because their forwards were beaten at scrum time, at the lineout and in the rucks. Hard to win a game in these conditions.

                    Probably start his best XV again to give them a chance to "redeem" themselves

                          The only good think I can say about that (apart from congratulating Pumas) is that I’m glad I didn’t get up at 6 a.m. to watch.

                            We were always going to lose to the Argies one day, but shouldn’t have happened today, no fucking way.

                            The previous regime lost to Ireland x2, got butt fucked by England in a World Cup semi final.... so the succession planning of having Foster locked in 4 years ago is actually working, as we’re just getting more of the same.

                            Lucky we aren’t playing Scotland, Japan or Fiji this year or we’d turn history on its head even more by losing to them too!

                            Man it was boring when we knew the ABs just had to turn up and they’d win every game eh?

                              Gregor Paul’s take is good:

                              “What’s now beyond dispute is that the All Blacks have an endemic problem with discipline.”
