All Blacks v Argentina II

[Victor Meldrew]

We really do need to start asking questions about the competence of the coaching set-up and the choice of captain.

[stodders]

Rugby Championship wide open. Every team has clear strengths and weaknesses.

[Frank]

Razor has backed himself into a corner with his overly conservative selections.
No time to change with the Boks in two weeks.

[No Quarter]

We play like the basics don't matter to us

That is at the heart of the problem. The McCaw era ABs made sure they executed the basics to a high standard. These guys don't, and don't even seem to try. Without exaggerating it feels like we would made 20, even 30 simple errors in the match.

Bledisloe is at risk I feel.

And the record at Eden Park.

Jeez fellas. Where the fuck do we go from here?

We are in trouble and could lose every RC game from here on unless we make changes.

Aussie playing with confidence and purpose.
Not perfect but they play like they enjoy playing together

[Unite]

Complete shit show, Razor and some of the other coaches not up to it I feel.

Well played Argentina!

We don’t do cut throat anymore.

Coaches should fear being sacked mid RWC cycle. We don’t do it.

Players should fear being dropped. We don’t do it.

Players with hot hand should be rewarded. We don’t do it.

Refs should fear hatcheting us as our fans media and coaches will lash them out of it. We don’t do it.

We have lost our edge.

From the board room to the stands.

Could win them all too. There is little to no gap between the 4 teams. It is whoever plays best on the day.

[Darth Sader]

Argentina were good, absolutely not taking anything away from them, but that game was there for us to win. Utterly incompetent performance. Disappointing all around.

[No Quarter]

Also, SBarret is not an AB captains asshole. Should never have made him captain when it wasn't even clear he was the best lock in the country. Stupid decision.

What exactly should those changes be?

They’re just so mentally weak

Nah.

We got outplayed. Happens in sport.

[Tordah]

Don't think I've seen a worse performance under the high ball since sliced bread, which was a pretty bad catcher.

[Canes4life]

At what point does SBarrett’s position come under fire?

Who’s the captain then? It’s definitely not Savea. He doesn’t have the leadership skills either

We didn’t play anywhere near our potential today

[mencey]

Absolutely pathetic. After that we may be getting the wooden spoon. I never want to C some of these players near the AB's again.

[KiwiMurph]

I wonder if super coach will ever get heat from the media?

Never seen a coach with better PR
