Yeah that 3rd place finish in 2015 was such a bad place to leave them. I'm sure their fall had nothing to do with them hiring a completely out of his depth Daryl Gibson

To be fair if he had of said this a reason, no one would have cared But he came out and said he wanted to stay but he's leaving because Joe Schmidt is leaving and he isn't confident that the next coach will like him, and people have pointed out that doesn't really seem like the most competitive...

Not being able to service a mortgage while earning $450k? I'm sure Noah would have survived on that I just don't think it's weird at all when people prioritize things like family and lifestyle over money. Especially when you will be earning good money regardless

I think this is pretty unfair. This didn't happen at Leinster, didn't happen at Stade Francois, didn't happen at the Waratahs, didn't happen at Argentina and isn't happening at Leicester The end of his Wallabies tenure was bad, but he was hardly the only one at fault for that. Other than that...

Hence why unions typically sign coaches to 4 year contracts after World Cups. As opposed to Peter Horne's master tactic of signing a coach to an 18 month contract and blindly hoping he changes his mind

What would they be exactly?

I don't disagree, but his resume and standing in the game put him miles ahead of any of the other candidates

That stage isn't usually when a guy is hired to be a top level national coach, or usually when someone is 60 years old with 25 years coaching experience

Would be far more fulfilling to show your grandkids your Wallabies memorabilia then to show them a yen note

The only strong candidate on this list is Cheika. None of the other guys have ever won anything Amazing how weak the candidate pool is for a 2 time World Cup winning nation

The problem is how reactionary RA has been and that they themselves set timelines that they then haven’t met Schmidt only ever signed through to the Lions, so there should have been a contingency plan already set in place. Instead, it seems their only plan was to beg Schmidt to stay, which...

Yes they did, and that was their biggest loss of the season

Me too, but been really impressive this year and a handful for any team

Disappointing loss for the Tahs, but Moana deserve a bit more credit IMO. They have some obvious defensive weaknesses, but they score points off of everyone Wins over both the Hurricanes & Crusaders, last gasp losses to the Highlanders & Force that very easily could have been wins, and they cut...

Waratahs are just chocolate soldiers. As soon as the heat comes on they just melt

Neither team comes out of this looking great tbh

Around 7 Billion people on earth are better than Murphy, that’s a pretty low bar .

Ben O’Keefe and incorrect decisions continue to be the most compatible pair in rugby

Ben O’Keefe ruling shoulder charges legal for the 2nd week in a row. How does this idiot still get games??

Carding that after allowing the Highlanders 7 to headbutt Lynagh last week is a joke
