Ryadh Sallem va allumer le chaudron paralympique

They've lost allot of experience since then of course but every top tier team has.

Australia's World must be tumbling down!

I assume he is going to miss most of next years SR reason. That will be a huge bummer, hope he gets plenty of game time in france. That they work him into the ground.

Then you've also chosen a lot of old fellas that I feel are going to be well past the peak they were in 21' I suspect you'll be right with a lot of those decisions. I certainly hope you are wrong with it being a heavily Irish side, but that was the critique that I was putting on Farrell alright. Gatlands 23s seemed lovingly diverse, I hope we do see it again (not that it will matter to the result) but the chosen combinations probably didn't help things.

It is really not necessary to sign your posts.

For example, in the post above "Good one!" would have sufficed. We all know who you are.

The first half of Foster's tenure, when he was surrounded by coaches who were not up to the task, was disastrous due to this type of reactionary chopping and changing. No clear plan of the direction of travel or what needs to be built to get there. Just constant tinkering. A player gets dropped one week, on the bench the next, back to starting the next, dropped for the next week again. Add in injuries and other variations of this selection pattern, combined with vastly different game plans from one week to the next and it's no wonder the team isn't clicking on attack and are making incredibly basic errors on both sides of the ball.

When Schmidt and Ryan got involved selections became far more consistent and the game plan far simpler and the dividends were instant, and they accepted bad performances as part of building towards the world cup. They were able to distinguish between bad plans and bad execution and by the time the finals rolled around they were playing their best rugby as a team.

Chopping and changing the team each week sends the signal that you don't really know what you are doing or why, and you are just reacting to what happened last week, selecting a team to replay the previous game rather than preparing for the next one and building for the future.
