It’s actually a 40% win rate.
Hansen inherited the greatest AB squad of all time. Replete with at least 10+ all time greats and 5 or 6 the best ever ABs in their positions.
His last three years were a muddied mess. Totally overrated. Look at Welsh record.
Will Foster be shown the door if the All Blacks lose to the Pumas again?
Hopefully a joke

Pre game NZ certainly had a better line-up and most would have agreed they were man for man a better squad. Certainly the pundits and bookies did.
Five talking points from England vs All Blacks
Sorry fellow kiwis but the ABs may be about to enter a down period. Hansen has struggled to generate new talent in the locks and back row and it’s going to be a problem over the next few years as Brodie takes his sabbatical and Read and Todd depart. No Squire hasn’t helped.
Ioane needs his mojo back as he was the best thing about the All Blacks in 2017 and 2018.
Laumape and McKenzie will be straight back into the squad next year and hopefully a new coach can inject some fresh ideas. They have looked stale since the Lions series.
Unfortunately our forwards are in all sorts and the lack of top level locks and looses has to be a huge concern.
Five talking points from England vs All Blacks
Think the key for NZ tonight is keeping the ball in play as much as possible and not allowing many scrum resets, goal kicks, etc. England will attempt to slow the game to a crawl and stay down injured at every whistle, so it will be crucial picking the right times to attack from the back.
A loose Jordie Barrett pass in the final 20 mins (for example) could be terminal.
All things even and no red cards I feel this AB team is probably 15 points better on neutral ground.

Is it just me or on current form could Australia be the worst team in the quarters? They look done. Deans was crucified yet had a way better record than Cheika. Baffling.
Scoreboard flatters Wallabies in 27-8 win over Georgia
Unfortunately Australia is playing like a tier 2 nation. So “not that great” will be more than enough.

Sounds like you’ve been drinking the George Gregan and Tim Horan kool-aid.
This is the worst Wallaby team in decades.

You’re referring explicitly to the Australian conference right? Right???? 😂

Yeah. Because Scotland were definitely going to win it 😂 😂 😂

Oh dear. 36-0 and it’s “the ref”.
Spare us.
Bledi hell! Wallabies walloped by brilliant All Blacks
Yet to prove capable of beating a team of 15.
The media are to blame for the Wallabies' failure
I’m blown away that so many people fell for that performance last week. It was 15v14 for what, 45 mins?
Imagine the scoreline if the Wallabies had a red card tonight.

Don’t think it’s as simple as hunger.
1) A settled midfield combination is hurting us. Haven’t had one since last WC.
2) Moving players out of position has historically never gone well. See WC 1999, 2007, etc.
3) Brodie Retallick – our record without him is terrible.
What we know after the Wallabies' stunning Bledisloe 1 win
And how many times in the last 10 years have the Wallabies looked great in the 1st half only to fade badly in the 2nd?
Too many to count. Assuming they would have won vs 15 is nonsense.
Nine talking points from Wallabies vs All Blacks
Net run rate has been the rule since forever.
Deciding matches based on “who hit more 4s”, has not.

Bowled out vs 8 wickets left should come into play before boundaries, a totally arbitrary metric as important and valuable as who bowled more wides.

This. There won’t be more than a try in this game.
Dogs having a lot of smoke blown up them on the back of one bad Storm showing and a clinical performance from Canterbury.
Manly are right where they want to be I’d say.
NRL finals stats: Sea Eagles versus Bulldogs - this could get ugly
Not sure I agree with all the “Dogs by plenty” predictions, they have been woeful for a few months and one uncharacteristically poor performance from the Storm shouldn’t gloss over that.
Obviously the pack is a worry but there’s no comparison between the two sets of backs. Unfortunately for Manly Tooves won’t pick Gutherson and Blair, who really deserve a shot on both wings.

The term is technically garbage time, and I’ve really only ever heard it referred to commonly in US sports.

Oh now the Pumas are tired. Got it.
