    The one and only Wallaby Coach thread

    I wonder if Les Kiss is thinking he made his move to soon?

    Happy to concede LinkedIn is necessary. To find out who is available and who is interested surely requires more effort than that.

    You should be more careful with your language. There is no evidence whatsoever that all possible alternative plans (a logical fallacy anyway) lead to "going broke quicker than Super" - and the statement is nonsensical if you don't think Super is going broke.

    You seemed resigned to acceptance that Super is bankrupting the game.

    He is. But he is not without attitude. His final summary paragraph starting with :- "If there is any time Australian rugby needs to respond to that touch on the arm, rise and walk with New Zealand, it is now." A summary of needing to be serious about Kiwi coaching options would have been...

    The one and only Wallaby Coach thread

    You need top 5 to see it as a success? Geez, I hope you are right. Edit/addition: We sit at rank 9 on 77.48 points. 5th is England on 85.56 - what is that, an 8 point differential to jump? That would put England to 2nd for what it is worth, or put Tonga (rank 16) ahead of us. Given we are still...

    This just is not enough. There are or aught be guard rails that have been hammered into position on the back of painful and expensive errors. As Pfitzy points out the SS as a model is not a good start. Not in itself a no-go but man, there would be some work to sort out those relationships and...

    I'm happy with the clarification replacing "centralisation" with "integration and performance alignment". I'm generally happy with Waugh through this, surprisingly so. However, suggestions from "august" publications like SMH leave me perturbed. Shrink to greatness 3.0 has been appearing and is...

    Cheika has been at this for some time now. I might not ever forget the barn yard dance, but surely the guy has learned and has developed. I wouldn't think our options are high.

    Apols in advance possibly for splitting hairs. I'd measure success in a combination of issues that include: 1. Solid commercials, finance and marketing support - a strong bank balance 2. Strong grass roots 3. Strong pathways with a good expectation of future development in terms of locally bred...

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    There are occasionally some really weird opinions out of SS fans. I found it a fabulous way to get into Hospital Cup. A real gem. Something that I'd be close to consoling myself with should Super continue this train wreck.

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    I went to ditch Stan (temporarily) at the end of the season until my better half had a right hissy fit. I've no idea what she is watching but I'm sure as hell not cutting the service. :oops:

    Don't be a dick. It's tough times for Rebels fans right now, hard to expect them to turn up depending on what happens. It's a poor time for this sort of sarcasm.

    Melbourne Rebels 2024

    I have no schadenfreude regarding the Rebels problems. None at all. Quite the opposite. On the field I'll see them steam-rollered by a rampaging Reds. But I'm shocked with the issues in Melbourne. And I'm completely befluxed at what happens to Aus Super Rugby if we end up with 4 teams. MASSIVE...

    Do you think that the Rebels could be left to sink and then start preparing an alternative? I'm guessing that VicRU is going to have exposure if not a guarantee. Which would complicate things. Also you'd think a gesture would be required to the stadium owner. Tax man would usually get the first...
