Yes they currently have a caretaker coach. Their style of play is stagnant though, as they have some excellent players but don't utilise them.
It has been a long hard season for the All Blacks so maybe they were in winding down mode. Still let's hope they put the very boring French to the sword!!
How long has he been with Wales? I suppose there comes a time when both the coach and team need reawakening so if it results in changes so be it. Sport reflects life as we all need a change of job be it location position, or even career. The importance of continuous upskilling and retraining.
It must be 9 or 10 years now - he's got a really good record with three Six Nations wins (including two Grand Slams) but I can see Wales fighting for the wooden spoon come next March
Eddie hates everything there is about English rugby. I can't stand his commentaries as he appears to pour scorn on anything good about it. I blame it on the likes of Peter Winterbottom and Mike Teague who probably gave him a shoeing and set in motion his hatred of the English
Interesting article - and even more interesting statistic. http://www.punditarena.com/rugby/gb...e-treated-differently-regarding-yellow-cards/
It is a fair comment, why continue to comment on their physicality when there is such beauty in their game as well, the speed they pass the ball, the offloads in the tackle, the sleight of hand, their movement. These seem to be ignored.
I hate it when there is a fight being promoted....I have to be on constant alert to hit 'mute'. Watching grown men arguing like toddlers and play-fighting at weigh ins is too much for an adult woman to tolerate.
In the Davis Cup final it is Croatia 1 Argentina 1. Vamos Argentina. 4 times finalists never winners so come on!!
It is the big one in rugby union today with France v New Zealand. Can the All Blacks produce another master performance as they did in South Africa in the 4 Nations tournament? Let's hope so!!!
We haven't seen much blistering attacking play from them so I hope so. Shame Maa Nonu and C.Smith both retired from the backs. Ireland vs Australia should be good. Argentina not quite at the level of the World Cup but still good, England can't afford to be complacent.
For me Hamilton's best chance is to get into the first corner first, but then drive slightly slower than usual trying to back Rosberg up and create some mayhem behind. If he races off into the distance then it becomes too easy for Rosberg to cruise to 2nd place. Although in general I'm so bored of F1 at the moment. I yearn for the races from 10-15 years ago when Ferrari, McLaren, Williams, Renault were all challenging for wins each weei.
Phew!!! Thankfully the Alll Blacks put the French in their place. Well done to Ireland in beating Australia as well. The Southern Hemisphere teams have earned a rest after a long and tough season. Hopefully the home nations have been studying the way NZ play and if so the stodge that has been served up so frequently in years gone by will be a thing of the past. England should be looking to score a minimum of three tries per match in the 6 Nations as they are blesssed with a tremendous depth that the other nations can only dream about.
