Newell.
Reece.
Ethan.
ALB.
Savea.
Jordie.

TJP.Add Codie Taylor to that list. He was poor aswell.
DMac is an issue aswell, he’s too erratic still.

Yuck. Three opensides doesn't work, especially when one is only there to inspect rucks and/or give away penalties.
Darry played well but Vaai is a non entity, missed Patch and Scooter.
Clarke would've made a difference and as well as Perenara played we need better distribution to get go forward, especially with such an unthreatening pack.

The games against South Africa, England away, Ireland and France are a big concern now. They could be very ugly if we persist with that side.
Hell, I'm even a worried now the Aussies might have a shot at the Bledisloe.

Ouch
From my vantage point NZ absolutely have the cattle
This was piss poor selection and tactics putting good players under unnecessary pressure which resulted in poor decision making and inaccuracy
The pack are missing a dog like PSTD. A nasty dog in the Etsebeth mould would be even better.

Coaching brilliance brings on Rieko and Jordan with 15mins left and no opportunity to do anything because we keep giving away possession.

It’s like we had the same forwards coach as last year
This. Last 15 minutes was worse than against Sth Africa at Twickenham - if that's even possible.
Is it just one forwards coach in charge or is it a committee of 3 or 4?

Welcome to the pressure cooker of coaching the abs razor ,
This could get ugly quickly if he doesn’t turn it around

Sadly, I’m old enough to remember a time when the ABs would never have lost that game, simply because they would be too scared to lose. Unfortunately mediocrity has become normal for this team. I had hoped for more from Razor’s appointment.

Robertson is responsible for selecting three 6.5s in the back row. Need a big 6, Blackadder is busy but ineffective. That miss off the scrum cost the game.

You can get away with it at Super level not at test level
I was hoping Razor didn't have to learn that the hard way..

I was hoping Razor didn't have to learn it at all.

You appear to have dredged up a post from the dark days of the Fozzie era. Lazy posting mate, you're better than that

Too many cooks in the kitchen, I suspect. And no mongrel in the pack.

From the outside, it feels like it's a bunch of unusually insecure middle-aged pals perpetually slapping each other on the back for fear of one of their gang not feeling the love, rather than than a group of utterly ruthless professionals preparing a bunch of hungry young men for the brutal arena of Test Rugby.
But I might be being harsh.

At least Razor’s honest about the performance……. Looks pretty shocked
