[QUOTE="mania, post: 923179, member: 75051"] agree about the scapegoating. no single player was to blame. the fault lies with Ireland in that they played an awesome game and were just better on the day. it happens. ABs are mere mortals, they are gonna lose games. do you drop the players that have provided NZ with this goldenAge because of one game? no hansen will show loyalty to the players and the players have loyalty for hansen. thats hansens and this goldenAges secret to success. loyalty. read (and the rest of the ABs) needs a rest is all. watch the game again and see how many tackles read put in, rucks cleaned and secured and you'll see that his contributions are still better than any 8 out there. retallick and sWhitelock despite showing a lot of exhaustion and being a little less effective than usual were still putting in a lot of work. ABs didnt play bad. they are still a world class side but Ireland played awesome and were irresistible . ireland are about to discover (as england already have) its easy to get to the top. the hard part is staying up there. i hope ireland get their #1 ranking that they deserve. it will liven up world rugby and take focus off the ABs [/QUOTE]
