Devastation from the players?

That’s because Razor knows our media is weak so doesn’t have to answer any hard questions.

Apart from the obvious issues. Our forwards are bloody soft and go through the motions.
A couple times Roigard was ready to get the ball out quickly, but our forward pod had no urgency to get around and run it. Pre-2019 our forwards were fucking charging to run the ball.
Lakai was good today
It feels like someone wrote the headline before watching the match. The penalty count was 2:1 in New Zealand's favour......

There was no punch from the bench forwards today either

NZ media are complicit in the making of the current malaise
The obvious hard calls are:
BB retires,
Taylor becomes captain,
Roigard vice captain,
Jordan goes to wing,
I'd put JB at 15
QT, LF mid field,
DMac 10 and kicks

So will there be any changes next week now that we’ve lost this game?
Haha imagine if we lost to Wales!

I’d be happy with all of that.

Crap! If we need the media to tell us what's wrong we got bigger problems. than I thought. The problem is in the team and coaching team is probably part of it.

We've all forgotten about getting fucked over by the officials because we were so shit.
Yes the officiating was terrible.
We still deserved to loseAgreed. We could have overcome. But you will never see a yellow card like that ever again in international rugby.
Did you see the Italy/SA game earlier. It made my eyes bleed
What yellow card are you referring to?
The red card
The red card that was a perfect example of when you should red card, that one? The one where a guy threw his shoulder into an attacking player minus the ball, with force and intent? The one with no intent to tackle?
That one?

I'd keep JB (once fit again) in the midfield and put Ruben Love at 15, but I agree with the rest.

I really worry if we think LF at centre is an answer, I didn't think Proctor was bad, but more even on wing LF is pretty slow to turn etc in defence.
Apparently Robertson thought his team played "some really good rugby"
That's some bullshit right there.
