Hello world.
The world is still spinning even after a horrid game by the All Blacks and terrific game by Ireland. Ireland deserved to win and could have won by more easily.
There is still a lot of time wasting and if you watched when Ireland had a player in the bin with a yellow card, Not a red card, which the AB’s copped , for the same offence in game 2, and played with 14 men for the rest of the game.
The game almost stops for ten minutes while the clock ticks down. An absolute farce. One scrum took 2.5 minutes to get set, my god who wants to watch this crap.
Now about the AB’S.I heard all week about the improvements that were promised, and the discipline required, Very good. So the first penalty is against the skipper, Sam Cane, and Ireland roar down field to score within the first 3 minutes.
Then Beauden Barrett decides to take a player out beyond the ruck. Same thing. Then two knuckle heads try some sort of fancy pass in their own 22,Same thing.
In between they lose 4 lineouts and one not straight. This is below club rugby standard, not the national team. I said when coach Foster was appointed in 2020 that his appointment was a mistake and here we are.
Also the assistant coaches are pretty average as well.
Get rid of the lot, now, before the world cup in 12 months time. The next opposition are South Africa in the Republic.
My prediction 2-0 To South Africa.
Foster has lost to 5 different sides since 2020. This is unacceptable. He must go now.
How will the AB’s beat the best teams in the world in France with this clown.
The selectors need to buy a pair of glasses also. Some poor selections. AGAIN.
I watched some of these players in Japan in 2019.They should not have been picked in 2019. and they still remain as bad as ever. No names but you can figure them out.
Solutions, new coach’s, new skipper, some new players, reverse the starting 9 and 10.Mo’unga and Fakatava to start. Swap winger and fullback. Jordan was the hottest fullback of the comp by far.
Super rugby would have told you that.
Savea as skipper, find a tough loosie to replace Cane, find two props, keep Bower, and another centre. Ioane is great when the teams up by plenty, otherwise he’s hopeless.
they now need another lock with Retalick gone for about 8 weeks .But it start with the coach.
GONE.NO QUESTION.
Bring in Joe Schmidt, ex coach of Ireland for 6 years, winning 3 six nations championships, including a grand slam in 2018, and he’s a kiwi. Not a bad start.
Enjoy your footy. Feel free to comment.
