    So they retained Cane and there are no changes to the inept coaching staff. Fuck me, the Boks are going to smash us up front.

    At this rate we will be kicked out in the QF. France v Boks RWC Final. And we slump to #6 on the RWC rankings. Need to get rid of this absolutely useless, gultess prick.

      @nostrildamus he promised they are keen to get stuck in, and try their hardest!

      Hopefully on the plane to SA Fozzie will watch the opening 10 mins of each test over and over to see what Ireland do with the ball, and McLeod watches thier connected aggressive d line to realise rugby defence is still attacking the opposition, not sitting back waiting for them to get to you to make the tackle.

      Yeah, but thatโ€™s not enough is it? Keenness is the very least we expect, so saying it is simply a truism. Iโ€™m sure the team was keen before T3 as well, but they still got their arses handed to them, so whatโ€™s new?

      If they want us to praise them for participating they can fuck off. Win or theyโ€™re no good to us.

        Wouldn't be surprised to see this forward pack:

        1 Bower
        2 Taylor
        3 Laulala
        4 Whitelock
        5 Barrett
        6 Ioane
        7 Cane
        8 Savea

        16 Taukei'aho
        17 Ross
        18 Tu'ungufasi
        19 Tuipulotu
        20 Papalii

        There will be a minor attack plan tweak, if we are lucky. No changes to defence.

        Looks good! Especially now that PGS and his insidious presence on the bench (or in the stands) has been rooted out of the squad!

          Ian Foster says "I am strong. I am resilient. I believe I have a great feel and relationship with my players. I'm strategic and I'm also accountable. I am really excited to give you the chance to show you what this team is made of."

          is that word for word Foster? If so maybe he should go onto the front row. And as captain.

              This kind of reminds me when Henry kept his job and it essentially caused the whole South Island to implode. Only this time we are all a united front.

                So made my way through the audio of the press conference.

                Interesting that ended on the altercation with Marshall abusing the All Blacks while legless drunk. Didn't sound happy that it had been recorded, and didn't think it was a big deal. He's spoken to both Akira and Marshall, and apparantly they've spoken as well.

                My takeaway from the rest is that his assistant coaches are in the process of being fired. Just a guess, but I think that's what the "big" changes will end up being.

                    herein lies the big problem with our current season structure

                    Let's say, for a second, that the coaches cop the fuck on and realise that just maybe that Hoskins Sotutu bloke is quite good, and should play

                    By the time he gets to play South Africa he hasn't played a game of rugby in 7 weeks

                    Yeah, that's ideal before a test in the Republic

                                      This kind of reminds me when Henry kept his job and it essentially caused the whole South Island to implode. Only this time we are all a united front.

                                      Yep. Caught defending the indefensible. Should have known better.

                                          A typically uninspiring team from a typically uninspiring coach.

                                          The only way that could have been worse was if bridge and enfor somehow joined.
