[QUOTE="coonor, post: 509833, member: 39776"] Murray was simply rubbish. I used to defend but now I can not see how he fits into the team. I think the shoreline was unfair considering how competetive Ireland were up front, in the set piece and at the breakdown but everyone knows that when you give NZ a sniff theyre going to slaughter you. By kicking the ball deep we gave them easy counter attacking opportunities and with players like Dagg and Savea no wonder they scored so many tries. We didn't take our opportunities and paid the price for it. Next game: -Reddan has to start! - We can't kick deep and allow them to run the ball back. All kicks must find touch or be followed by a competetive chase. - Let's start playing off ten! We did it in the first 10 minutes and we looked dangerous but then we just stopped. - Ball retention has to be better.... If the All Blacks anything over 50% of possession then they will put us to the sword again. You can't just rely on defending against the All Blacks. [/QUOTE]
