    @Chris said in Refuge for the positive.....:

    The coaches are my concern I think the players are in confusion in what we are trying to achieve.
    You think with Hansens experience he will strip the game plan back and give the players positive direction to get some confidence in them.
    If that happens we spank the wallabies and win the WC.

    To put a positive spin on the current situation, that was the talk in the leadup to the 2015 RWC where the ABs weren't impressive in the pool games. We later found out what was happening behind the scenes with inter-squad games etc.

    What do we do for Tonga?

    Wheel out reserves surely, give Crotty some game time.

    At least the squad is named after the match. Would like to see Jacobsen get a start.

    @Billy-Tell Yep, all players who've had little game time: Crotty, S Barrett, J Barrett, Reece, Bridge, the third hooker, Weber. Also Laulala, Pat T, Hemopo if they makes the squad etc

    P.S. pretty sure I didn't contribute to this thread coz wasn't able to be 100% positive.

    I'm usyally the most optimistic of fans but performance had been down so I had begun to doubt.

    So kudos to @Baron-Silas-Greenback and those who were.

    Got to be Happy 8 changes all went well in a pressure game
    Bridge and Reece handled the pressure game really well big Bonus.
    Read best he’s been for 2 years
    RM/BB combo with 50 % ball looks the goods
    LFs Awesome Read back to his physical best adds a lot, complements Ardie and Sam
    Retallick back for WC we hope
    All is good roll on the WC
    No injuries please through to the Final.

    The Steamers are on fire for a change and the All Blacks won 36 - 0. Rugby is glorious again!

    As somebody who enjoys a good spar with @Baron-Silas-Greenback it is bloody annoying how often he's right with these things ...
