All Blacks v France, 2021 NH Tour

Well played France. At least Foster has been shown by Ireland and France how you actually play rugby. Let's hope he takes notice.

[No Quarter]

A try before the break would have been nice...

All we can do is try and keep this respectable really. We don't have the gas in the tank to pull this back, let alone the right gameplan.

[gt12]

Stupidly, I got out of bed to roll in and see France’s 3rd try.

Now I’m too angry to go back.

This is the worst side I can remember since my teens.

Sadly, I’m not sure we have the players to be anything more than a top five side anymore.

I can handle losing occasionally but being totally dominated is difficult to take

Who gets sacked first, Solskjær or Foster?

[akan004]

When two of your senior forwards fuck up like Coles and Retallick did, you know it's not your day.

We have clearly learned nothing from last week.

Luckily the bench is loaded with game breakers to bring on and change the game...

Well Samisoni might

[Billy Tell]

Embarrassing. France doing what irekand did but actually turning it into points.

I’m so angry that foster was given a job of the back of no CV.

Comical stuff.

This post keeps coming up as the last post on the thread for me... Kinda fitting

I'm getting this:

[MajorPom]

Picked up on this a few games ago. We literally win zero of the “50/50”’s. When there is loose ball we never ever get it.

Shows a real lack of rugby smarts.

[Tim]

Reputations will certainly benefit from not being involved this week.

Did we really need to rest Papalii?

Someone will have to go, but I’m prepared to say it won’t be Fozzie.

My bet is on Mooar.

We are not protecting the ball carrier. France is walking all over us at the breakdown.

Cane doesn’t look ready for a game like this. Not selecting Papali’i on the bench means it’s hard to sub him

Whut? Made about a zillion tackles including about 5 in a row on the line when he got back to cover that break.

What we're missing is a blindside participating in the game

The IQ deficient drones at the NZRU will probably extend Fosters contract to 2025 “to give him more certainty”.

Evidence on his tenor so far is that learning from his mistakes ain't a strong point

I'm getting this:

Cmon guys, We know he has club hands but shocking pass from Smith. Call that first.

[No Quarter]

Puts the Irish result in context. They should have beaten us by a lot more.

Could do worse than Nick Evans as an attack coach. I hear he's doing some good things at Harlequins

Mooar and McLeod for me.
