      I didn’t want the All blacks to win the World Cup because I’m a Razor fan. I listened to the media and I took a side.
      Straight after the Ireland game I saw Razor hanging out of the window of his car celebrating the All blacks win.
      I went into the game thinking I don’t care if Ireland win. But I was on the edge of my seat cheering on the abs thru the whole game.
      I was sucked into the whole Foster vs Razor debate. When actually it’s not that it all. Looking back now the NZRFU totally fucked foster. But that’s not Razors fault. He applied for a job and got it.
      I’ve been bitter towards Foster the whole time and I was wrong.
      I think the NZRFU have done considerable damage to rugby over the last few years.

        It does make me laugh how foster didn't apply for the job, as he knew he wasn't going to get it. Like we should have sympathy for that, several media articles saying he's hard done by. Same fucking thing as after 2019, basically no one applied, cos there was no point - foster was a shoe in. NZR fucked a lot of things, but giving notice to foster, and future abs coaches, that what he delivered during his term is not good enough even with a rwc victory.

        And that really only came about cos we al whined like bastards about it. Even NZR could see the damage being done by their closed shop. And rightly so.

        I hope foster rides off into the sunset with two fingers raised, Sir Foster of the redemption Arc & learnings galore. But a key point of that sentence is rides off

          John Hart got a lot of grief given his %.

          because his win percentage is boosted hugely by being handed arguably the best AB team in my lifetime, and also Christian Cullen. And then when they started retiring and it was Hart's time to pick the team we sucked.

            Is this post real?

            Surely not? I hated Mitchell more than you hate Fozzie and I always wanted the ABs to win in 2003.

            Also, listened to the media?

            Although TBF, we have been claiming the Cantabs prefer Cantab/Crusaders over ABs and we finally have confirmation. 😉

                  yeah...pretty vocal about not liking fozzie and very happy about the idea of a reset next year, exciting....but i never wanted the AB's to lose, never cheer against them, huge difference to resigning to the fact we may lose to Ireland (wrongly) and not caring

                  i did see english fans say they would be cheering for SA in the other SF because they didnt think they could beat the AB's....strange times

                          @Kiwiwomble because we have (seemingly) unlimited upvotes. I believe the mods performed a sort of quantitative upvoting easing in light of unprecedented upvote shortages after the 2011 final and now here we are in an inflationary spiral

                              @African-Monkey that does sound a bit ridiculous...so they were happy to go at one point when fozzie was the coach...but they decided not to go because nothing had changed?

                                @Kiwiwomble It was around the time last year when Fozzie was gonna lose his job until we won in Joburg from nowhere, the guy then threw a tantrum after Fozzie kept his job and decided against going.

                                There's plenty of other cases like that that I have encountered with people I know but won't take up the whole thread talking about it haha.

                                      Although TBF, we have been claiming the Cantabs prefer Cantab/Crusaders over ABs and we finally have confirmation. 😉

                                      We had at least one Cantab on the forum say they were cheering for the Aussies in the Bledisloe when Deans got that job haha

                                      why are people upvoting this?!

                                      Because we know @ACT-Crusader didn't really mean it
