And this is the reason why the Wallabies are not going to play at the Eden Park anymore. They dont deserve it

Because he can't kick the ball far enough and even if he could, he has a windup that has been charged down twice tonight.

Can't believe you're giving the coach a pass for this dumpster fire. By your logic, coaches would never be fired as long as they don't pick players out of position.
Re-read what I said. It's on Foley to fix up his kicking game.

Ive fucking had it reading year in, year out how the coaches aren't any good when the same players have the same deficiencies no matter what coach they have.

It's not the coach - these players clearly do not look at their own issues and fix them.

If Foley had a professional attitude towards playing flyhalf, he would throw some of his own time, money and effort at a personal kicking coach and develop the skills necessary to succeed.

He clearly hasn't.

Yeh right. Phips is on one wing. Against the all blacks. We can't expect anything now. Players out of position. Against the all blacks. Whatever.

Bit of a telltale sign when you pack a scrum and every wallaby loose forward is packing in the wrong position. I also watched Dagg run into a collision with the two wallaby locks and win it. That is more worrying. The 2 is crap. Never going to win a game with that forward pack.

Coles runs a block. No call. Piper hasn't called a penalty apart from that scrum. In this half

But did you watch any of the Super Rugby teams this year?
I have. It's the same players that have seen better results in the past. You can't tell me that the likes of Richard Graham, Michael Foley, Stephen Larkham and Daryl Gibson are great coaches. You can't have an entire nation out of form. But Michael Cheika can't blame the Super Rugby coaches, we've just played stupidly in this game. Headless chooks.

It may be up to Foley to fix his game but it is up to Cheika to pick the appropriate players, having regard to the skills the players actually have, not the ones they could conceivably develop with extra training.

If Cheika wants to play territorial footy he needs to pick someone with a decent boot. He has to own it when he doesn't - he can't blame the fact that the player he picks doesn't have the skills, when he knew he didn't have the skills before the match.

I accept that Foley sucks but Cheika is responsible for selecting the side.
