Wallaby Coach after Joe

[dru]

As much as I hate the phrase, this seems to be a Win Win...

Continuity for the Wallabies and the Reds, with time to work out the best assistant coaches for the Wallabies and the new Reds coach for 2027.

Quite refreshing after all the coach selection process debacles since Link walked away

Not to mention that Schmidt has been going great, especially giving the EJ (Eddie Jones) nadir where he started.

I've put my pitchfork away for now, that's a good outcome. Reds happy, Wallabies happy, continuity in place. Surely we have to fuck this up somehow.

Well… I do have concerns this gives the SRU Mafia enough time to white ant Kiss before he even starts

i mean if its to the middle of next year (another 14 odd months) why not stick around to the end of the cycle....

There is that whole thing about his son needing medical care.

Smart arse comments aside this seems a bloody good outcome to me.

Hoping we can do a Liverpool coaching transition.

At this point surely Schmidt should just stay on til the World Cup. He’s extended his self imposed deadline twice and has taken numerous jobs since leaving the Irish job for the same reasons that he left the Wallabies job

Not a long run in for a rookie international coach into a World Cup for Kiss. Hope for the best but will be a huge learning curve for the guy (despite the fact people seem to think he’s a Joe Schmidt clone)

I can’t imagine Schmidt will be doing too much work away from home for that last six months or so of his contract…

Im aware of his son's condition and I was being dead serious.

I know he wont stay on but it only being another 12 odd months makes you wish he would

Sorry - I was referring to my smart arse reply to your comment.

Also the Reds have plenty of time to find a replacement coach for Kiss.
That's a win/win/WIN all round

Campo? or Chieka?
