@Crucial I commented on what I saw in 60 minutes and previously, but you keep sipping the coolade captain contrary.
I saw what I saw, you saw it different, all God if you agree with Savea that we dominated them, I disagree

I don't think I said that at all.
I was refuting your claim that we were dominated.

I watched the whole thing. You are completely correct.

Sounds like the players are reaching for excuses to explain away their poor form on the field and lack of any coherent game plan or leadership.

Can understand the players are finding this territory of public pressure uncomfortable, but some of the stuff coming out makes you scratch your head.
Ardies response to the loosies play
“I’m not too sure,” he responded. “Do you feel like we haven’t been dominating the last couple of games?
“I felt like the loosies have been fronting up, and we’re just trying to navigate the space of a new breed of players.https://www.rugbypass.com/news/ardie-savea-fires-back-do-you-feel-like-we-havent-been-dominating/

An ALB update, as he returned to training yesterday.
All going well, Lienert-Brown is targeting Waikato’s final regular season game against Bay of Plenty in Hamilton on October 2, though also threw out the possibility of an appearance for Thames Valley or King Country in the Heartland Championship.
He has also been part of the Waikato coaching staff, not just running the water.

10 Japan 77.74A 1.42 point shift is huge in the scheme of these rankings. I guess that in a period of volatility these shifts can happen depending on circumstance and timing.
See how we only got a 0.62 point shift for thrashing a team that beat us the week before yet SA get a big lift in points (and Oz a big drop) for a standard tit for tat win. -

Away though, rather than at home ... and the context of not having won there for years!

Considering all his changes away from preferred options so far have been due to injuries, or (in the case of coaches) forced on by outside pressure, he won't play him there.
Once he had chosen he sticks too long, and with those he hasn't chosen yet he flip flops all over the place. I hope I'm wrong

Hopefully the performance was so clear the pressure internally will be to provide Jordie another outing to back up that performance. The ridicule from outside the camp would be enormous.
But I share your opinion.

the top team doesn't run out again for 6 weeks. Everyone will have forgotten by then in a beautiful case of "what have you done for me lately?"
Someone will play 12 against Japan and score 3 tries and will be anointed new saviour

The All Blacks will name a squad on October 9 to face Japan, Wales, Scotland and England, with about 35 players set to travel north.

Reading that, I'm feeling a bit more confident that NZR have finally started to get their act together. There's a lot to like about the interaction between Foster & McDonald's teams.
