Probably the most sense I have heard from Marshall in a long time. Plus, the Irish female host is bloody hot.
Basically, Marshall is not happy with Foster and the gameplan. Mentions that BB struggles under pressure and going backwards.
That has always been the case with BB and with RM.
I still think that is a big part of the coaches struggling to find gameplans that work against teams that can pressure usEdit: I think Marshall is talking shit when he says that getting rid of Foster would mean having to get rid of everyone from assistants to physios. Assistants, yes. A new coach would want to get his own, but they managers, physios, S&C etc would be able to stay. Some would move or get swapped out over time but practically there would be no harm in leaving them there for a bit.
@Crucial the role that I think a new head coach would want to have a big say on is the S&C coach. Because that is integral to how the team will play and must be aligned with the philosophies of the coach. S&C coaches have their own philosophies too and so there isn’t always a natural fit.

Foster quotes from this week
“This is where you want to be in terms of the excitement,” he said. “We don’t want to lose a test, but we have, and to have a big game in front of us like this means the eyes go really quickly from looking back to forward. We’ve had some big days, but that’s the way it should be. The work that’s been done is fantastic.
**My Question MR Foster do you need to lose to get excited about fronting up in the Black jersey by losing the week before ?.
Is not pulling on that jersey enough to get the team excited.“I can’t wait to play Ireland. We’re learning … well I think we already knew, but everyone else is learning that this is a high-quality team we’re playing. It’s a great examination for us. So we’ve got to show we’re smart and we’re learning as well.”
What have you learned in the last few years you have been involved not much that I can see.If you already knew it why did we play so. badly.
Just more BS Dribble with the same outcomes. -

I don't think I'll bother watching.
The Irish host reckons it's going to be a turd test!

Be like me training to be a Dr, then working at a supermarket and wondering why I don't utilise my medical skills more.

Well I've warmed up for tonight's rugby bonanza by playing 2 games of golden oldies for the Mariners
Now in a perfect position to tell others exactly what they are doing wrong

Almost guaranteed the ABs will go golden oldies with a good handful of stupid cards. Live and don't learn, that's Foster's ABs

Haven’t read the thread so apologies if I’m repeating what has been said but the nations capital has put on a fucken CRACKER of a day for Rugby. It’s not even cold, was out doing the weeding and nearly stripped down to the long sleeve top I was wearing under my hoodie !

Anyone heading to the game?
I’d say about 34,500 people at a guess.
