Last
night we lost narrowly to South Africa at Carisbrook. It seems that
without players such as Richie McCaw, Brad Thorn, and Ali Williams (who
retired injured, partway through the match) we lose most of our best
playmakers. That was the difference last night in the 30-28 win to
South Africa. Instead of playing as a team like South Africa, we seem
to have only for or five real playmakers (the ones above + Dan Carter)
who have any real experience at mixing it up and giving us a chance at
success. Why is that I wonder?
