Description

All Blacks icon Murray Mexted joins Martin Devlin to unpack the New Zealand's bruising loss to Argentina, insisting passion and pressure in Buenos Aires were as decisive as tactics. He defends the All Black coaches and selectors, arguing the current backline is the right one, but the forwards failed to deliver front-foot ball. Three yellow cards only deepened the struggle, leaving the backs exposed and the side chasing momentum. While fans demand sweeping changes, Mexted urges patience, continuity, and trust in coach Scott Robertson.
