Fair enough yellow for Cane, red is garbage. And I’m usually more than happy to see multiple darkness players sitting on the sideline. Now I’m even more backing NZ, c’mon lads you can still do this.

I dislike the MSM propoganda as much as you Slim. Both sides. PS nice deflection with the newly inserted last line. However, I'm happy to leave it there too, I agree it's now not that relevant to the conversation, however my initial post was as it was about the need to exercise caution when...

thanks for editing my post in your reply. And I'm OK with you being the person that doubts it...

Amazing what getting Eddie Jones in to oversee the program has done for women's rugby in Australia.

Must have been a good one to justify the $8m payout he got for it. We all know the ethics behind it, but contractually it clearly seemed to be not a very good reason at all. I don't know the numbers behind the QANTAS sponsorship at the time, but I doubt that the position taken by Castle and...

Comes from Central West NSW, so it must be so.

I think it’s: Deans Cheika Foster from the current available options. Outside them it’s picking up a provincial coach. Larkham is the most obvious of those. However there are probably some NH candidates. It’s likely to be the least worst option. That could be Robbie Deans.

I’m not sure how to reply to a post in one thread in another thread, but I was referring specifically to the coaching and related staff mostly brought in by Jones.

I don't disagree with that but that culture wasn't winning us many games either. It's impossible to know how we would have fared if we left Rennie at the helm but I suspect we would have probably made it to the quarters and that's it. One silver lining out of this clusterfuck is that several...

It certainly reads as though the proverbial broom is being put through the joint. Which isn't a bad thing I don't think. The process to remove a director/chairman is a bit different of course.

Well here we go. Eddie saying he’s open to negotiating a deal to walk away from RA. I.e. give me some decent coin and then I can go coach Japan. https://www.smh.com.au/sport/jones-tells-rugby-australia-he-s-open-to-deal-to-walk-away-from-wallabies-20231010-p5eb0r.html

Listening to the GBR-Au podcast during the week, they were discussing the exact ‘fucks given’ scenario above, and referred to the 2011 Bronze final which they called ‘Wales week’. Essentially both teams would be treating it similar to a Barbarians game.

Daniel Botha. Exceptionally average graphics from the intern there.

who is the shock resignation?

I'm not sure, that's pretty standard day in NZ isn't it? i.e. Miserable. Maybe the France conditions are a bit warm and a lower chance of rain I guess.

Although the game was a lot closer than expected, the outcome was totally as predicted in that South Africa won being the only try scorers and all of England’s points coming off Farrell’s boot.

Indeed, we certainly let the side down. If we had beaten Fiji it could have been an all SANZAAR semi finals.

That ended up being a pretty good watch in the end. Derpus, pretty sure you will watch it, it could end up being immense. If you don’t you could be like all those people who cleared out of Sydney for the 2000 Olympics.

I was hoping that at some stage during the week someone would have explained the laws around the self imposed HIAs?
