[QUOTE="fcukernaut, post: 93951"] Yeah that decision not to start Merhts had me pulling out my hair especially because McIntyre has never been good. Not even at the high school level. He only got his foot in the door for selection because his high school coach(he's a St. Beads boy I think) was the coach for the South Island school boys and when it came time for selection of the National team he didn't even get a sniff. If we didn't win a lot Vuni would have been public enemy number 1; however, his comedy of errors provided quite the entertainment in the form of ridecule. I remember almost every conversation I had with my friends about rugby ended with "man, I hate Vuni. He's so bad". Then he came in one year and had a blinder of a super 12. I think the year after that he went right back to being useless and his season ended after he was taken off the field in a stretcher with a neck brace on. Oliver is a dink. I've hated him since he blew the Tri-Nations a few years ago. Aussie came into Carisbrook and were up by 8 or 9 points on the final play of the game, Mehrts was on the field and we had a penatly 50m out straight in front of the posts. The 3 points would get us a bonus point and even if we scored a try we couldn't win and it wouldn't have been the 4th try. So logically, of course, Oliver elects to tap and go for reasons he deemed as "pride". The All Blacks knock it on and lose by greater than 7 points.
