    Sir Clive Woodward; there’s another excellent example of a coach who went on for too long.

    White is currently unemployed I think. Not sure about his side-kick Jones.

    1. who else is there to take their place?

    2. why assume it's always the fault of the coaches? Couldn't it be because we don't seem in this country to produce good lineout forwards? The ABs coaches can't be blamed for the dearth of lineout talent coming through the ranks.

    1. I’ll keep banging the Jake White drum until I see a logical reason why it can’t be him. BTW, look at how the England football team are going at the moment.

    2. OK, so the lineout isn’t totally the coaches’ fault, although remember they also select. But it’s one of the more glaring pieces of evidence of the fact that this side is going backwards. 6 years is a long time.

    Scott,

    We will continue to lose big games until we fix our lineout.

    There's really no point calling for Henry and Co to be sacked

    How can you have those two statements in the same post?

    I have come to the realisation that Stephen Donald's suckiness is a bit like climate change. While most people agree with it and there is huge amounts of data to prove it, there are still some pockets of deniers who still think he's actually alright.

    I think that analogy could also apply to 3 men sitting in a box, swigging on sponsored water, and staring into their laptops.

    Donald’s carrying a disproportionate amount of the blame on here.

    Can you imagine the frothing if the NZRU even looked once at bringing in a non-NZ coach to coach the ABs? There'd be blood everywhere.

    Surely we've come on from those days?

    Especially with the obvious staring us in the face like this.

    Can I just ask, before anyone gets their bitch on and calls for the coaches to be sacked, that you have one good person to replace them with

    Jake White

    Interesting take on the Read thing; I thought he was a bit lucky not to get binned.

    It was a performance as predictable as it was depressing. Is there anyone left out there who disputes this side has been going backwards for long enough to be classed as officially in decline?

    Redbaiter would be far more effective if he actually had wit, or even if he had a cutting edge.

    Not sure about the targets, but I’d have thought Cwaigy and Wussell don’t really land the killer blow. More like a boxing blow to the nuts that doesn’t actually connect.

    And, having my first dealings with him today (CR’s fault) the “I won, you lost, you smeared me, you are a lefty” reply was just so ... lame.

    @Paul,
    Speaking for myself; my employers would be horrified if I used my real name out there and they ever did a Google on it...

  • Field Theory: Things we can learn from Americans,

    I was meaning the ability to block Hamilton from the mind.

    Agree it's a strange decision to stay in Surfers.

    Not only will incite an affronted bell-ringing fury from the crowd, but it's shades of All Blacks in the South of France 1999.

    @Kyle,

    Hmm; where did I get Sydney from?

    Must be subliminal AB De Villiers tracking going on.
