    Do we need to start picking players from Europe?

    If the best players are playing there, we might need to recognize it.

      Unless Foster steps down he is here to stay out his time, no way do NZR sack him.

      Even at the end of a long tour, there is no excuse for some of the shit that's been thrown up.

        How about picking the best coach instead of jumping to an inevitable surrender.

          It might not be the coaching. It might be the cattle.

            Was Papalii injured or just not selected ..?

            Not injured. They said he was ‘a bit beaten up’ though

              I think this quote sums up Foster perfectly. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

                @gt12 wouldn’t do that before we get a decent coach.

                      The NZRFU are not into firing early. That should change now because Fozz isn't going to walk on his own

                          Bower playing for the ABs says it all really.

                            the saddest thing is the glaring mistakes are still there, the AB coaches don't or won't fix them.

                                Well, that was likely the worst end of year tour ever, wasn't it? Fister out

                                          I agree with that, but the competition isn’t preparing them for test rugby.
