Gavin Mairs On England's Excellence and All Blacks Concerns
Manage episode 519992453 series 3656866
Let’s be honest. That loss to England hit differently. This week on DSPN we dig into it properly with Telegraph rugby writer Gavin Mairs, who joins us from the UK with a clear view on what is working for England and what is not working for the All Blacks.
We talk through England’s tactical shift, their smart coaching additions, and why Steve Borthwick finally has a side that looks like it knows exactly what it wants to do. Then we flip the lens back on our own backyard. Why are we still seeing the same patterns after 12 tests? Where is the ruthless edge that used to define New Zealand rugby? What does it mean when Razor is openly saying some of his assistants are learning on the job?
We also cover the Autumn Internationals, the Ireland-South Africa blockbuster, and the upcoming Nations Cup. Gavin gives a grounded northern perspective, and we try to figure out where the All Blacks go from here.
