Pocock would still be the first man you'd want in if it was a counter-rucking effort, anyway.

It does seem that he's forgotten the customary "u" in Rutchie

It's also not costing the club anywhere in the realm of $30 to fill it with the aforementioned goodies.

I think the pool of experienced international coaches who couldn't make an improvement on the current Eagles is a very small one. Things have changed a lot over here since the days of Scott Johnson refusing to adapt to the American system. Recruiting pathways a much clearer and more...

A good portion of readers would have wet themselves and finished reading at the headline anyway. I mean, he coached the All Blacks - what else do you need to know?

I don't see this ending well. Tolkin's lack of emotional maturity and man-management skills was one of the worst aspects of his tenure. I may be totally wrong, but I don't see Mitchell doing anything to help repair the damage caused by Tolkin's destructive, divisive attitude. In fact, I think...

Chibba was out the door a while ago and Moore was working on a deal with Munster presumably before the Reds one (although they could have definitely expressed interest earlier on) so I'd lean towards the former.

Glasgow could've added another 20-30 to their score if they could get passes to stick early on. And Cooper Vuna, an inconsistent winger in Australia now getting fawned over in Euro Rugby podcasts and looking like a starlet of the Premiership.. Who could've guessed?

Didn't Smith say something to the effect that he's not really actively interested in the HC position anymore?

Competition for Kerevi in the bosh merchant slots - about the only thing I could come up with. Probably a good thing depending on his price. Didn't Intruder say something about CFS moving into the centers full-time this year or am I imagining that?

USA are starting to get loaded up on athletic talent (and increasingly, truly good rugby players) in the back row but there's still a lot that needs to happen for the Eagles XV (not even considering the bench players) to compete outside of the second tier on a consistent basis. A test-class 9...

You have an extremely broad definition of the word misogyny.

Everyone's gonna be blue and the Reds are just gonna blow :confused:

Gel do you think you could please save it until after we win our Preseason Premiership again before reality forces us into the realization of how much of a rough ride this is actually going to be?

For mine I'd have it the other way around - I thought Gits was quietly brilliant and more importantly consistent throughout the tournament. He didn't really light the world on fire with ball in hand but he played his role in the defensive structure perfectly and some of his kicking out of hand...

"Where are the virgins?" "Change of plans guys"

RIP.

Apologies, should have said "the thought of". Unfortunately I don't think any of the above is going to right the ship in 2016.

Can't help but feel like having a 40-year old player/coach at Super Rugby level in 2016 is more of an indictment on how fucked the program currently is than anything else..
