[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 861113, member: 45598"] A bit of an overreaction no? Off the back of one bad performance in his second best position and not being able to chase a game against the world's best from his best you bring in a guy who has done next to nothing in two years in his place? Form is overrated, pick your best players, Sexton and Farrell (as a 12) are two of them. I continue to hear that the coach is the right man for the job and he's picking the right players but with Wales 7th in the world and England and Ireland 2nd and 3rd respectively, with Scotland 5th, at least one of those statements is wrong considering Wales have almost 33% representation in the squad and test 23 and it's shown with the Lions managing to improve upon Wales recent record against NZ by .75 of a point. This is not an attack on Welsh rugby, who have better players than their recent "hard to beat" form shows by the way, it is one on Gatland though who the more I think about it has made an absolute mess of this tour and better hope they win tomorrow otherwise it'll be a really ugly 40% win rate.
