…..from dropping Blackadder to the bench, to keeping Ioane on the park, to taking off Barrett for an undercooked Mo’unga. Didn’t this man watch the tapes of George Ford being consumed by the rush defence. The Bok defence was rampant yesterday it was no time to send on a sleight of hand passer….Barrett was always a threat to cut the the line. When he went off our chances went way up.
But this guy seems clueless. From his comments about the Bok game putting him to sleep to his apparent surprise that the Boks varied from the box kick. Why motivate your opponents like that.
I’d be interested in our NZ posters’ views. There are so many smart men in NZ rugby, why Foster?
As a footnote Plumtree doesn’t seem to be providing much nous either….he looks confused by the whole thing. Much like he did at the end of his Sharks stint.
Are these really the best options to take NZ to the WC?
