Its probably to late to save Fosters job, but at this rate they might lose the fans completely
only need to see the attitude from some on here, who would describe themselves as rugby tragics: I didnt watch the last test, bar a 10 min highlight package, and bailed at half time in the last Irish test...I am looking forward to attending an afternoon NPC match on Saturday though!

Foster will be adding that to his excuse matrix.

That would explain why he was off the pace on Saturday.

@taniwharugby it never rains, it pours.
The whole rugby internet is piling in on the All Blacks and Foster come out with the "best performancevof the year " and now this.
Its probably to late to save Fosters job, but at this rate they might lose the fans completely

Yep. It's never been about the losing. These things come in cycles, and I think with professionalism you have to accept we can't expect to maintain the levels we have.
What we can expect though, is a team looking cohesive, together and trying to execute some sort of a game plan. If the Boks / Irish beat that game plan then so be it. It's tough but it's acceptable.
We've got none of those 3 things. None.

But this shows that issues go beyond just the rugby, they are starting to make unforced errors off the pitch as well.

@Tim Suzie?
I guess when it rains it pours. The only silver lining would be an opportunity for Perofeta.

Dont like the Kriel selection or seeing Wiese still there (though he had a good game last week) otherwise good.
Think Marx should have got another start, but hell probably get 45 minutes so it should be fine.

Marx is a mistake.

@SidBarret I mentioned the importance of our bomb squad. That frontrow is stronger then the starting one. Kriel the only worry specially with the 6/2 bench.

Based on Saturday, with different ref scrums aren’t going to be critical. But Marx’s interventions buggered AB momentum.
I’d rather have him come on at start than risk ABs finally starting alright and Boks chasing game.

Potentially 3 fullbacks down, JB, BB (they should rest him), WJ, does DH have a chance?
