| Overreaction or what? We lost get over it. Haven't got a god given right to win every game you know. I would much rather lose a weekly round game such as Friday to ensure we are peaking at the right moment which is Old Trafford in October.

well you have been short of the mark in 04,05,07 and 08. not much but short non the less, if your gonna be there or there abouts in the cup then its have a big squad which you dont! or have some periods in the season where you play within yourselves, where training is less intense and the performance may suffer.
if you dont win the GF this year 1 in 6 is hardley dominant is it? so previous seasons would suggest change may be needed in terms of preparation throughout the season

Pryce?

They beat the side (3-0) that went on to become the World Champions 12 months later.
The point was someone mentioned Burrow as never having performed at International level when a Man Of The Series award might question that claim.

Wasn't a dig mate, just that the Burrow point was made in response to the same accusation being levelled at Pryce - fact is they were both outstanding in that series, as were several others.
I have a horrible feeling that says more about the Kiwis that year than Pryce and Burrow though.

That is a point I have made many times before.
IIRC the Kiwis had a lot of their top players missing for whatever reason for that series.

We're not as good as 44-0 suggests and we're not as bad as our second half capitulation at the world cup suggests.
To be fair, we were absolutely abhorrent in the semi and still could have nicked it. The Kiwis certainly have the edge mental strength wise, they often get humped by the aussies in ANZAC tests but tend to perform well when it matters.

He should and he should stop prancing around and loving himself, also get his wig chopped and stick with a decent style!...
