V BOP
-
I think we started on the wrong foot with the rotation.
Very disappointing, but not at all surprising.
-
we certainly seem to make far too many poor decisions.
-
worse still, the Warriors arent even playing this weekend to make ourselves feel better
Hope BOP fans appreciate what we did for them today!
-
Was the intent to provide everyone with an opportunity to start?
-
side has had some very good moments, far outweighed by average skills and dumb decisions, but I also think the coaches have made some very odd substitutions (both starting and during the games)
Oh well, time to go have a big f-off glass of whiskey and look forward to the test!

I obviously didn't watch the game but would have to think this result might have done a fair bit of damage to the coaches chances of retaining their positions given the winless streak we're currently on. We had a lot more experience than BoP, it was a must win game and we got thrashed.

I thought we had been making inching progress in our first 4 games, with a bit of luck, reckon we cold have won 3 of our first 4...but that was woeful.
I dont think we can say they are done just yet, I am a firm believer that a coach really needs 3 seasons to really make his mark, but unless we win in from here, I think there is no point persisting for another season, win/loss ratio will be abysmal.
Problem is, who would take over?
Fuck is about all I wanna say any more on that, fuckity, fuckity, fuck, fuck!

It's always a hard balance to work out whether it's players or coaches to blame. Now that we have had a number of players involved in Super Rugby, they've had a full season of build up and preparation and we're still 0-5. That's why I would be thinking it's the coaches that need changing. The games I've watched this year the team has looked like it has plenty of potential, it's just not being fulfilled.
Would have to think if the coaches do go Greg Shipton would be a contender. Good track record with North Otago and NZ Age Group teams, worked for the NRU for a long time and just won a club title with OBM in his first crack at it.
-
our defensive structures seem poor, as we have under Harris and even Whitcombe, we defend too narrow. So often our winger seems to be defending as wide and thier centre position with an extra man out further, then there is the missing basic tackles too.
So much wrong with that game it aint funny!

@Donsteppa think you will find no one here cares....bastard

@taniwharugby Your tears taste delicious, Mwahaha! Err... I mean yes, yes it was nice to finally win one again. Full credit to both sides, thanks to the ref and the tea ladies..
