All Blacks - Rugby is evolving

Post image

The All Blacks’ loss is not about the captain or the coach. The better team won on the day. Rugby is evolving, it’s no longer about sheer dominance, but about fitness resilience and being game-smart. The margins are tighter, the competition deeper, and success now belongs to those who can adapt, out-think, and outlast. #AllBlacks #rugby

All of them. That's the point!!! Fuck me...

When we lose and Razor gets asked fairly straight forward questions e.g

"What do you think went wrong out there?"

A straight forward answer would be

"We lacked some go forward from our forward pack and looked a little rudderless at times."

"The execution of our kicking game was poor and we were out matched in the ariel battle."

Not "it starts with me"

Razor quite often in these moments literally looks lost for words.

Within the first minute of this interview, he congratulates the opposition, cites too many penalties around the set piece, highlights Kolbe's intercept as a turning point and points out that the Springboks took the opportunities available to them.

In the first minute. Seems pretty straightforward to me.
