Most coaches who coach at the top flight of any domestic competition, or European competition (or similar) and even at some other levels have considerable abilities so that just a generalisation. The statement could apply to most coaches even the like of Foley and Graham a few years ago. Either...

I really admired the Canes mindset. Minor adjustments to deal with the conditions and then play their game, not play the conditions.

Ah - no! I think The Chieka NRL style game plan suits the attacking style of the Brumbies backline so its a good match. :p I am happy for the Brumbies to make the sacrifice for the Wallabies and be forced to bring in fresh blood. ;) You did see my Top 5 piece the other week about backs in...

Um......? :confused:

You are spot on with Toua and he has not improved. The point was proved after being ditched by the Reds, he went O/S to the Pro D2 with Agen and they cut him from 15 after about 6 appearances as he was not good enough and he rode the pine or played wing for most of his remaining time there. I...

I actually wonder if strategically for the Brumbies, not going outside to replace a HC (with the exception of Fisher on a 2 year deal as he is a local so to speak) would be a smart thing as it would provide an air gap to reestablish the business, team and brands reputation? Compared to the...

But i am starting to wonder if that's a good thing, and I really like the bloke!

Yeah, either am I - not a fan, but with the right assistants maybe. What other options are there? Anyone free to go hangout in the Balleymore carpark and make a new friend?

So no decision until after the Super Rugby season which is interesting timing. How can he have not made a decision yet? How can the Brumbies board have left it this late in the season to have not secured a head coach for 2017 or started a process? Why am I asking this question as its the Brumbies...

Well that's interesting in that he is yet to decide!:eek:

Or family friendly - that applies to both the time and weather. The irony of the whole thing is the frost and ground marking - well there certainly wont be a frost, and due to the rain they did not paint any sponsors on the ground nor will they be as its too wet! So overall the time change...

A lot of the crowd issues relates to the venue and the lack of cover. Pregame over 10000 tickets had been sold, so a lot just didn't turn up with the weather being so bad. You know its bad when the a Kiwi bloke from Wellington who was at the game was saying he could no believe how bad the...

I agree with most of what you have said, but in regards to Wells, he is not an 8 and has suffered playing there. There were better options as you identified. As for the line out, the Highlanders knew with the weather conditions and the Brumbies being so predictable thy just kept jump at the...

Forcefan. Do the stats indicate a different style or game plan that is influencing the ruck involvements? I am wondering who is doing the work to cover the front rowers and what impact it has on attacking options / structures etc.

Reports Arnold is out for 6 weeks. Elbow injury with a fracture at the back of the elbow. :(

Sad if it's true as he is looking pretty handy.
