we should have been taking every point we could get
will hopefully also be one of the LEARNINGS we take from this game, take the points when on offer.
Once a team playing as SA did are chasing it, things will open up hugely.
Yup
That's why I don't criticise Ardie for going for a try. We were in attacking position and they were under penalty pressure. IF the gap had opened by a try that would have given us a real advantage in managing the game.
Totally agree - and with the ABs strategy. My only complaint is that while Ardie went for the points when it wasn't working, he should have done it a bit earlier to get us more than 3 points ahead.

One thing TSF is terribly good at is straw man arguments.
It's entirely fine and proper to point out a player isn't up to Test rugby at that stage of their development. That doesn't rule out maturity and improvement. It certainly doesn't rule out criticism.
Again that's not the argument. It's when a player is ripped to shreds as being shit, not up to it etc. And again let's stop pretending nuance is a thing here.
Nuance is a thing everywhere. If only you can recognise/understand it.
And it's "balderdash".
Boulder Dash was a sweet little computer game. -
