    Shit tactics. Didn't adjust to their ruck tactics.

    Very poor captain selection.

      @canefan it’s pretty disrespectful to say ours didn’t. We were outplayed. Boks dominated the second half

      You misunderstood. I meant the boks didn't just kick this week, they didn't milk stoppages. I wasn't talking about us. They played positively and deserved the win

        Two matches in a row our tight five go missing. Our scrum is weak. Our lineout falls apart. Players too lazy to get onside. Soft defence. Absolutely no misdirection in attack. A complete inability to make good decisions.

            We weathered the storm again....won the scrum, took the ball upfield and with 30 seconds to go, a basic error gave the Boks the game.

            That's not all Foster's fault, that's the players on the park, particularly the senior players.

            It's incredibly dumb play to be soft at the contact trying to recycle and count down the clock.

                We need a specialist lineout coach, no matter what it costs. Frustrating to see the same weakness 5 games in a row.

                      Every arrogant fluffybunny who talked about how the Boks couldn’t hang with us should have a good look in the fucking mirror. They play differently and they are fucking dangerous.

                      Terrible captaincy.

                      Bad performance by a lot of players in black.

                      Great performance by a lot of players in green.

                      If we were so bad and they were so good you'd think they would have won by more then a penalty in overtime.

                      That was a great test, so much better than last week. Both teams made mistakes but also had moments of pure brilliance, and the end of the match was absolutely hectic. Love test matches like that.

                            Just had to control the breakdown. But we failed to do that for most of the game

                                Can't win all the games, ABs 2010-2015 vintage was something special. It's still a very good team, but losing so many of the World XV was sure to have an impact. Still very likely the best team in the world, Boks lost three on the trot and ABs just the one. But Boks played better on the night.

                                      Our lineout is an embarrassment.

                                      Our forwards are allergic to attacking breakdown.

                                      We need a change of players, and a change of coach for the forwards. This is embarrassing at this point. And it's not like this is a new problem, our forwards have been lazy around the breakdown since at least 2018. I don't know why, but any time we get counterrucked, you can be sure there'll be a couple of forwards looking right at it two metres away.

                                      We seem to deliberately commit the bare minimum number of players to attacking rucks; it may give us an extra pod to pass to but it costs us so much possession and penalties, it's such dumb rugby. But we persist with it anyway. I'm so sick of this shit.

                                      And to be fair, this isn't even a criticism of Foster, this predates his promotion, this is just how we play and it's showing no sign of changing.

                                          Not sure we were offside. But Ref was throwing penalties around at the end.

                                          Just saw a replay... Will need to look again, but not sure we were offside. May have been an earlier phase?
