Springboks II
@Duluth said in All Blacks vs Springboks II:
They gave Carter 8, desperately trying to find a positive. He did some ok stuff but also missed half of his 6 tackle attempts etc
Probably the most accurate description of his performance.
@MN5 said in All Blacks vs Springboks II:
He’s a dick. He deserves this result for his constant trolling. It is tiresome
So does tonight's performance confirm to us that there is a reason why previous AB coaches got international experience before taking on a massive gig like this?
Razor won 7 titles in a row with his 'quarterback' (stupid term) Richie Mo'unga.
The much maligned Rob Penney just won a SR title with journeyman Rivez Reihana running the cutter......
How much did Razor and his team really learn by staying in SR, being the big fish in a small pond?
Did they need to stay in SR for 7 seasons?
My preference would be to wait until Joe Schmidt's available, then to hand him the keys to the Black Machine (well that's what it used to be).
Warren Gatland, Milton Haig, Jamie Joseph, Vern Cotter or even Robbie Deans could do as interim HCs if needed.
I think the media and NZR need to tell Scott Robertson "that second half was totally unacceptable" and then ask " now what are you going to do about it, radically and today if need be, so there is no repetition of that shambles ever?"

Who is the lamentable twat asking the question at 4:45; "is it important not to react too much, just one that got away from you?"
It's a record loss, at home, you fuckwit where our team looked incompetent at every aspect. This after the "honest review" when we set a new record by losing to Argentina in Argentina.

A group of cliches incoherently assembled. Robertson looked haunted and out of his depth..
@antipodean Jesus Christ, rugby media is so fucking servile and clueless!

Rassie said it best.
"Dogshit"
And the good thing about what Rassie did, is his players see/hear him saying that in the media and say to themselves "fuck, we are in for it now". Then ring the changes, beast them in training etc.
Would you be "afraid" of Razor or Scooter's wrath?

The media are only a cigarette papers width less guilty than the management and players.
Its journalistic cowardice and a fear of having their access and jollies cut.
