He changed his running style? When did he die with the ball with players open outside him? He did let one get get outside him once, one poster incorrectly called him out of position for their first try,when else was he positionally poor? BTW, when he ran too upright against the Irish, they held...

And yet you supported the continued selection of the snake shouldered big mouth for years,why the change in standards?

What's your point? There were no coaching changes.

This is the most ridiculous statement of this thread.By your logic, a club team coached by Link would physically dominate most international sides.

read the annual report. p24 (b) reconciliation of of cash Cash at Bank or on hand 2011 $5,474k 2010 $21,317k That translates to a reduction in cash of $15,843k, so I admit not quite $16M p7 Income statement Total Income $68,801k(including IRB Grant $4207k which is up from $2204 the previous...

OK WJ since you won't let it go, let's put it this way. He is the CEO of a company that lost $4M and burnt $16M of cash last year. He goes to the board and says, I have got everything so under control, the business doesn't need to me to spend as much time at my desk as I used to. You reckon...

So you have moved on from the proposition that the time he spends at Echo is not substantial, to how can he travel and still fulfill his obligations to Echo?

WJ, it is stupid to compare the time required to chair a gov advisory board with that of a publicly listed company that is worth over $3billion. But you know that.

No one has ever said that JON was not fulfilling his contractual obligations. The point is, he should never have been given permission by the board to do the Echo gig.Surely you must acknowledge by virtue of the remuneration he receives ($400k+) there is a significant time commitment on JON...

Some very good points,well made. Good to see you are still around RH.

WJ, are you sure he didn't say brat pack?

Sammy, I am sure QC (Quade Cooper) would like to see Link get the job, but that would just be a little bonus on his way out.The Rugby Club appearance was all about making it untenable for the ARU to keep him on. Let's face it, on form QC (Quade Cooper) is a fringe Test player ATM.What other sport allows an individual fringe...

That sums up the game to me.We got smashed in contact, Our guys had a real go I thought but didn't match their physicality. Unless you thought there were about 6 piggies that should have been selected, how is this the coaches fault? What tactics are successful when you are physically dominated?

Our former 10 is a good example of this point.

That's Nasser, he is a confrontational guy. Sponsorships are about relationships, his clients have very few if any. SBW should be on every billboard in NZ he is so marketable, but he is not.

Heaps of empty seats there, thought it would have sold out quickly?

I agree, I think it's the Wayne Carey syndrome. No one has ever told them a) to pull their head in. b) Their behaviour is unacceptable. c) There will be ramifications for poor behaviour. They are surrounded by sycophants and enablers.Look at the hysteria around this place in the past 2 years...

Who had the ratsack last? Need to get rid of all the Rats in the dressing room, especially if they are in a pack.

How did you cook the lamb on the BBQ?

That is the longest bow drawn in support of QC (Quade Cooper) ever. He could have just made himself unavailable due to injury. If his perception that Wobs rehab was below par,why would he not say that.He had no problem saying he didn't like defensive tactics of the coach.That the sheds felt like a losing shed...
