England vs New Zealand - 15/11/2025

I mean you got to a rwc final and lost to the best team in the world with arguably a coach who should never have been a Head coach

true, i think what a lot of us kiwis are finding is we just dont enjoy watch this style of play, if you're scoring plays are all out of nowhere and often from inside youre own half...so with little to no build up etc....that we're getting a few minutes of razzle dazzle.....and +70 minutes of erratic random ****

SA didn’t win anything because of Rassies innovation, they won because they had a solid gameplan and some massive brilliant players. How ‘innovation’ if you call it that is just a gimmick.

South Africa don’t need to be lifting players in the middle of the pitch or trying to creat hybrid players to win anything.

Idk about this one. Being able to bring entire packs off the bench has definitely helped them to dominate teams in the latter stages of important games. Just look at England's semi-final against them in 2023. And you can't have 6:2 or especially 7:1 benches if you don't have some very versatile players.

A lot of what Rassie does is just him throwing **** at the wall, but his hybrid players have clearly paid dividends.
