      Can I be just a little bitter that three of their best are kiwis?

      Time and time again we don’t develop guys that could be very good. Never willing to go long term and always quick to jump at the next shiny thing

          That's the obvious thing, isn't it?

            Thought Bower was solid as fuck again. But probably missed tackles I guess

              With the right coach and a proper game plan, we can do it.

              It's way more than simply changing the coach and game plan. You sense there's a cultural issue with the players too.

                The problem is there a zero repercussions to foster not quitting or being fired.

                The disinterest and lack of money is a downstream effect that the NZRU won't feel right away.

                  @Derm-McCrum I think we should be thanking you and your team. If it does result in the change of coach we will have a far better chance at the next WC than we would have.

                    Razor will sort that out.
                    Foster won't.

                      Well played Ireland. Team effort.

                      Bye bye Foster.. Surely
                      Head contact card shown to be utter BS

                      AI has played well in the 2nd 40mins
                      Coles has been very busy, showed just how shit Taylor has been.

                      TBH I think a few of the boys in black quite frankly don't value the jersey enough..

                      Roll the changes... Flush the dunny and start again.

                          An exceptionally well coached and coherent team, singing from the same song sheet. At the start I listed about 50-50 players I would take from Ireland for the ABs, now maybe more! But really that was a team effort, congrats

                              Bower has been the find of the series for me. Along with Reece our most consistent player.

                                Yes. Mitchell won back the Bledisloe and put 50 on Boks in Africa.

                                  There is that.

                                  Unbelievable result for Ireland. Really didn't think that was possible.

                                    Want to bet? I honestly think he still feels he's the right man for the job. Hell of an ego if so.

                                    We got told the players need to respect the legacy of the ABs. The same is true for the coaches. Leave the jersey in a better place than you found it.

                                          NZ won the 2nd half. Shame in some ways as foster needs to go. But well done Ireland. 5 out of the last of 8
