@Kirwan Ardie is the wrong number 8 for any team that matches us. Hoskins should start now. We have lots of 6s just need to pick the best.

Be great from the bench.

Like what I see from Los Pumas just a bitter pill to swallow that Cheika will take some credit

Probably his best experience in the coach's box vs the All Blacks

So fucking obvious

Akira, Sotutu and Cane need to start the last game.

I hate losing but I am feeling overly happy for Argentina. Good on them. We got given a lesson tonight.

I was spewing when we lost our record to Ireland but don’t have that tonight. They were awesome.

[Mokey]

An Aussie win followed by an Aussie coached teams first win over us is some foul, foul medicine.

We don't play Scotland any time soon do we?

Scotland would win after about 6 penalty goals and a couple of droppies

IMO Ardie actually played quite well. He definitely wasn't the worst player out there and had a lot of energy for the final try. He just didn't offer what we needed tonight.

Foster P5 W2 D1 L2 Winning percentage 40%

He's a good player. The starting 7 or bench option.

I know that everyone is climbing into Foster. The cracks were there at the World Cup. They need a rethink. We have to find a way to win the contact and that means different players.

[Victor Meldrew]

The only good thing I can take from this season is that it's better we fuck up now rather than in 2022 & 2023. You get flashes of good stuff but it's balanced by too much seriously stupid play and and at times what seems like blind panic.

Can understand wobbles with team building and new styles but the basics have gone to shit. Perhaps some smarter rugby brains than me can see Fozzie developing some new master plan and tactics, but I sure as hell can't.

Is that better or worse than his record with the Chiefs?

[Derpus]

Please continue to pick Jordie Barrett, forever. Thanks.

Aussies will smash them next week as Argentina will be drinking litres and litres of red wine

Because Foster was there for the WC rot and has just carried on the mistakes. Ardie at 8 for example.

He played well...but he played like a 7...so we had one tackling 7 and one running 7...and were missing an 8
