All last week, there were many posts pointing out that Deans and his helpers had got it wrong by persisting in playing guys in positions that were a bad fit. As we saw in Tokyo, we were right and they were wrong.
Giteau continues to unimpress at 5/8 (Can you believe it? He got charged down yet again.)
The Dingo feels that Cross is the best available O/C in Australian rugby. He feels that JOC should be somewhere on the field. He still feels that George Smith can play 8.
And he won’t take advantage of Chisholm’s pace as a ball carrier.
He was right about Pocock. But then, so were we.
And he apparently took our advice and had somebody have a ‘get-with-the-program’ word with Palu.
Now come four important games playing on the other team’s turf with upwards of, oh, say 70,000 fans dead-set against the green and gold, and little room for Deans to make sweeping changes to a team that can’t seem to gel.
Better hold on, folks. If you’re a Wallaby fan, as I am, we’re in for a long tour.
