One of Eddie's KPI's - the length of time it takes a player to get up off the ground and back into the play.

Tragic.

I cannot see the point of a franchise paying good money to retain the services of aging All Blacks.

Two really stupid yellows. What's wrong with these blokes?

Daugunu did okay. So did Wilson and McReight.

Took the word right out of my mouth. Pathetic.

He deserves to be dropped for that brainfart.

For once I can agree wholeheartedly with your post. No cards!!

I hate to say it, but he was the least good winger on display.

Sinclair plays above his weight.

Talking of coaches with potential, I would put some money on Simon Cron. He did a great job with Norths in the Shute Shield.

He has the right breeding.

I think Cron is particularly good with the forwards, from what I can remember of him coaching Northern Suburbs in the Shute Shield.

Maybe the biggest (fixable) problem in Australian rugby. I wonder whether Eyebrows will try to get some power over the allocation of players to franchises.

Hanigan out for a few weeks, according to GRob. Time for Nadolo to move into the pigs.

I don't think in simplistic factors when it comes to performance measurement. We will never know how well Rennie' Wallabies would have performed, of course. I happen to think that he was unlucky to be kicked out at this juncture, and I wonder how long Eddie will last in the job. Any guesses?

The more successful organisations that I have had something to do with did not just "judge by results". Corporate success or failure is a bit more nuanced than that, and IMHO evaluating the performance of a national sporting coach is a lot more complex than "how many games did the team win"...

Kefu was pretty handy, so was Tuynman. But Gavin was my favourite, no matter what Loane says.

Funnily enough, Harry Wilson has been coached by Gavin, I believe. Gavin is my favourite Wallaby 8 of all time.

It's not a game, it's a trial. No points on offer.
