@sparky welcome to Mondays chat.
@mariner4life I hadn’t seen that one before. It’s the best of the lot.

If ever there was a graphic that summed up AB supporters and our level of delusion it's this
A guy universally reviled as the worst thing that ever happened to All Black rugby, has a winning percentage in excess of 70%

When he was really reviled it was a fuck lot lower, everyone has agreed that this RWC run has been great. Just not worth the rest of the tenure.

If you drop his wins he's at like 0%

You're a very strange guy. I hope you are hung like your avatar with your offer to plow (sic) my wife

And you're weirdly obsessed. Everyone has their kinks I guess

No, that's not it
Discussion? Fine
You don't discuss. You've set your stall put around Ian Foster. And you go on. And on. And on. And on. About how he sucks.Good stuff? Luck, someone else, or the players overcoming their shit coach
Everything bad? "See?!! I told you you!"It's weird.
Ian Foster has been disappointing me personally since 2004. I have Facebook memories annually telling me just how much I have been disappointed.
And yet here I am, 19 years later, able to admit maybe he knows a bit more than I gave him credit for.I can't wait to read your posts if we manage to win next weekend

Dude I have totally acknowledged that I am eating humble pie with how well we have done in the tournament. You're completely wrong. I had us out in the quarters, dead cert. He's done really well, pulled the team together. Not said anything else about this rwc, is been a very good campaign so far. But I refuse to call him anything else than a poor abs coach as RWC is not everything.

Which loops me back to
A poor AB coach is a legend to nearly every other nation on earth.

@Bones The win % says more than the total number of wins.
He's no Laurie Mains, but everyone's gotta have goals.

There's a reason why the abs are the greatest team ever, so yes

Starting with the fact that his appointment was not well received at the time, I think the first series loss to Ireland and the first home loss to Argentina, along with the style of some of his teams' play (helter skelter was a term used a lot on the Fern) only served to hurt his reputation. Along with the assistant coaching firings, and his almost firing before that win in SA, his tenure has been tumultuous most would agree. But his numbers certainly compare more favourably with the greats than perhaps they would have 18 months or so ago
