JPNZ:
1. I didn't mention Robertson, I think there are a number of people who could do a better job.
2. My dislike stems from his constant changing of players and positions (we are never going to improve without a settled side, building connections etc)
3. As with most teams named he hasn't gone off form as such and picked a player who isin't even staying in NZ and some that are not AB material IMO
4. He still looks to have no actual plan regarding rush defense or how to win when our forwards are being bossed
Very good points mate.
For me Foster doesn't have much insight at all, the bloke hasn't got a clue how to counter the rushing defence, especially when our forwards are going backwards, that's when we should be kicking behind them into space, pointless just smashing into a brick wall, giving them every chance of turning our ball over.
Part of the reason for us losing to France & Ireland was playing them at the end of a long year, but don't see that as much of an excuse, every team has to go through that type of situation... ABs were awful in the forwards against them, particularly at the breakdown where we didn't get enough numbers to our ball carriers to clean them out aggressively, so we could give our backs quick recycled ball.
