To chip in my 10 cents (pun intended) - the problems and the questions are many.

Yes, the Pumas had a brick wall defence, and yes a tactic is to chip over the top.  However, in doing so, you need to be confident of recovering the ball, and the ABs are not.  Our problem in this regard is that while we might initially recover it, we're being out numbered and out muscled at the breakdown, where our best results these days is slow ball, with a turnover or penalty for not releasing being the other outcomes.  This won't be fixed until we have a higher level of coordination and enthusiasm in the backline for kick chasing, and loose (and tight) forwards who get there early and with menace.  I think we miss Sevu Reece for his kick chasing and loose forward abilities, as Caleb Clarke is not often (ever?) seen in that role.  Neither is Will Jordan for that matter, but then he's a fullback - when are they going to play him there, or will they bleed the form out of him like once happened to Christian Cullen when they moved him out of position?

A good question is why Cody Tailor throws a lot better to the same locks, and with some of the same props, when he plays for the Crusaders?  Something doesn't smell right here, and I don't think it's different opposition.  Also, to be fair, that last throw didn't look any worse to me than many that go unpunished and may have been us jumping across that didn't help it, so he may have been a tad unlucky there.  No excuses for the rest of his half though - he looked uncharacteristically nervous to me.

Aaron Smith - as soon as his leg goes out straight it will 100% be a box kick.  The opposition sometimes have as much as 10-20 secs to get prepared.  He needs to address this unless it's his (very obvious) signal to his own team and they take that long to get ready.

Where on earth were the off-loads on Saturday?  We seemed obsessed with trying to break the line, when a more effective tactic may have been to simply attract and absorb a tackler and feed a shoulder runner.  By trying to push through we let them bind and isolate us.  Similarly, the pod structure of forwards running it up may have had it's day or needs some variation, as it's a pretty easy read where the ball is going.

And for those who say a coach doesn't make a difference - bollocks!  They're responsible for setting the mood, the attitude, and the belief.  In the second half, one team had attitude and belief, and the other didn't.  There is so much wrong with the way the ABs are playing at the moment they need some serious help, and they don't seem to be getting it from Foster.
