Will Jordan only person that can walk off that field holding his head high
Thought BBBR was also leading the way before he had to leave

Razor would want his own team so quite a cost.
So pay it. It's costs more to keep these clowns on to further tarnish the ABs.

Agree. But this is NZR

Razor will sort that out.
Changing culture doesn't come from the top - it has to come from the players themselves.
It does when they are dropped.
Just dropping players won't improve the culture - unless you want one of fear which never works.

These players didn't get shit overnight. They can be improved

Players need support. This team could do with a Crusaders style system in place, that simplifies decision making. Because they can't make good decisions by themselves

ANY system would be an improvement.

Picked Ireland England SA today. Sadly ⅓ so far.

I'm one from 4, England, SA, Scotland next
Yep, once again, not just the loss. It's the lack of anything coherent as a team that makes it so annoying. You can see we have some stellar individuals (among with some dead weight that needs to be dropped, cane, Taylor, etc) so it's totally a coaching issue
-
Akira second top tackler for the ABs
Most run metres of any forward on the fieldGood effort after a few weeks out with an injury
-
Lost home series to Ireland - check
What's else could this season hold...
Lose both tests in SA
Lose Bledisloe
Lose to Scotland on EOYT
Lose to Wales on EOYTThat's the trajectory NZ are on right now. There is no fear. Opponents sense blood in the water. They know NZ have the capability of scoring something out of nothing, but so do Fiji!
-
Two questions:
-
why didn't the AB's take the three towards the end? This is test match rugby not super rugby!
-
would Aki be AB's 12 now if he had stayed in NZ?

3 not enough but should have gone for scrum or line out
No. Same scenario as Hadley Parkes

Yes. The leadership group HAS to be questioned now, as does the direction that the team is taking and all including the fisheads given a good clearout.

@Victor-Meldrew Razor would bring a complete overhaul of the team and the culture with him. And make McDonald his assistant.

It's never that simple. And it's plain dumb to impose a culture - almost always ends badly.

@canefan probably the World Cup exits for me but outside that , this is it

You are massively underestimating the influence the coach has on the culture. A new leader in any organisation can have a huge effect on employees with the right leadership. It's just abundantly clear Foster doesn't foster a culture of excellence (sorry had to with the pun)

I don't fuckin care if Razor picks the Cantablacks initially.
I just want to see a coherent and unified gameplan that the players are fully committed to.@Frank said in All Blacks vs Ireland - series decider:
