I hate box kicks,but when I watched that passage of play a second time. White had no good options. The last two who trucked it up were monstered in contact. Horwill seemed to be his only option to take it up,and he appeared to have little support.the 10 was deep in the pocket,and was not going...

More to the point,it would mean Pulver is not the man for the job if it does. But it won't happen.

Why don't you address the real issues in this scenario big arse? Who would get the wine cellar?

Funny, You do realise when Quade was calling the joint toxic,he was in favour of player power toppling the appointed coach?(well one player anyway) Now you are suggesting that too much player power is a toxic environment. Which is it?

Why would you trust the grass roots of the game with that mob?

I thought that was very poorly handled by McKenzie,and probably set the tone during his tenure. I think he had 100% backing to change the culture in the squad. However,a better manager would have involved the playing group in setting the boundaries,and the penalty for breaching those agreed...

If there was nothing going on,there would be nothing for the media to report. Link was not awesome for the Wallabies. He admits he lost the support of his players in record time, and results were poor. That is not awesome. Having said that,he went out with dignity,and you could not help but to...

Happy to agree to disagree. If we all had the same view,every thread would be one post,with a heap of "likes". I also think there are many things that remain unreported,but that doesn't make the things that have been reported invalid IMO.

Give it a rest was an attempt at being diplomatic. It's childish to want to blame the messenger. Many things she had written in the past two weeks reflect poorly on Link's management decisions. That doesn't mean he's not a good guy, or that he can't coach. Let's remember that it wasn't GR's...

Get a new barometer.

Jeez,can we give it a rest? If she printed things that were incorrect,the injured parties would be rubbing their hands with glee. It is highly unusual for a major newspaper to libel someone over a sustained period of time. I'm very confident that the papers editorial & legal teams ensured they...

Of course he would. But that's because teams with that sort of record have a different collective mindset from our boys who are 1 from 10 from those two good sides.

Not sure of your point Scotty. He resigned,he wasn't sacked for poor performance(yet). I don't think it's a black and white thing. Undoubtedly he had things to offer the team,on the other side, no one is perfect and above criticism.

Ummm, Just saw the replay of the last 10. We did not get the ball back,after he kicked it away. So my theory is unsupported by the facts.

The point is,we got the ball back after rule 101 was broken. We couldn't maintain possession. The box kick is irrelevant.

Why are so many fixating on White's box kick? I hate 9's box kicking,but the fact remains that AFTER he kicked it,we did get the ball back. We were given a life line and we squandered it.

He can recognise these things privately,and can devise action plans to address it,without scaring the horses by admitting things publicly.

I was more than surprised to see Robbie Coleman playing 10. Either they have a dearth of playmakers,or tactical coaches.

Shoot the messenger?

The new coach should not gave any ties to current players in the squad. He can then look at all the players and really mean that everyone starts with a clean slate. Then,if he is going to make discipline a point in the squad,he won't delay punishments until a time that suits him. Style etc,is a...
