Why are they so st? I don't get that they can be so worse with Gatland away
Can't imagine it being all that better when Gatland comes back to be honest. We're too slow, too small, too disorganised and make too many mistakes. I don't get how people who get paid to do this can do it so badly? If I was that bad at my job I'd be out on my ear by the end of the week.. Our next match against England is going to be a bloodbath!

Two differences between you and a rugby international...1. Your boss probably isn't as directly responsible for your performance on the day as a rugby player's is.
2. Your boss won't have seen all of your potential replacements when he has to decide whether or not to sack you.

Was aimed more at the players than the coaches. 1. Your boss probably isn't as directly responsible for your performance on the day as a rugby player's is.

If you were to listen to the buildup on radio Wales during the week you'd think we have the best players in the world. They performance on the day is far from. A few players need to be left out of the squad permanently and let other have a chance.

I can't help thinking that the Irish are going to get their arses handed to them tonight.

The ABs have found new ways to cheat. Should only take a couple of years for the officials to get wise to them
They seem to have invented a new tackle method that looks suspiciously like taking a players head of with the tacklers shoulder, but doesnt because World Rugby have outlawed that approachThe All Blacks were always going to be on the edge physically after us beating them 2 weeks ago. And tbh I've no real issue with that. I have an issue however with calls like, in the first half Read dived in from behind the maul , from the Irish side when there was clear forward momentum and scooped out the ball. Just a penalty. There were some heavy hits after that but that's part of the game. Another issue was the final try, absolutely a forward pass so much so that Best approached the referee about it as the kicker was lining up. Lastly the try NZ got when Sexton almost held Barrett up. I think it was down to be fair, but the referee seemed astounded the tmo was about to give it, he even double and treble checked it. Why not make a call. Such a shame after an incredible game we end up talking about a referee lacking balls.
