Zinzan is my daughters middle name, so she was obviously born before Hugh Ritchie McCaw became the GOAT.

You do realise the recall of Whitelock was a pure media fantasy, based on nothing but the fevered imagination of scribes desperate for a headline?
The forgotten leader Razor must pick for the All Blacks - and why it could change who wears the prized No.10 jersey
That is a disingenuous comment, Foster made many firsts, all of them bad.
To ignore the terrible inconsistency of the All Blacks under Foster and talk up his record is rubbish, Foster without the lifeboat given to him of Ryan and Smidt was going to be probably the worst overall coach ever of the All Blacks.
Foster should never have got close to AB’s head coach.

so another kiwi comes back to play for Australia, and he’s the new messiah, ffs, would love to see an actual Australian be the one, sad.
Huge coup sees Wallabies hooker coming home to Super Rugby on long-term deal, with World Cup in sights
Or like the Liberal party runs anything, 1 trillion in debt.
'Ready to go': Jaguares set for early return to Super Rugby if Rebels fall over
Perhaps conflating two trial games into some sort of loss of face and reputation for two of the best clubs on the planet, is stretching a bit.
Your continuial denigrating of sh rugby and elevation of NH rugby is boring, Perhaps get some better facts and try again.
'Could be a big deal' - Robbie Deans could be at the centre of Japanese Rugby's 'Coolum effect' - and he's been here before
So where did you get 20M from, sounds like you are just making stuff up for your own agenda.
Leaked document says RA out to 'destroy Super Rugby' and 'turn members against each other' as Rebels' pain comes to light
And this is why the Hampster must be sacked :
In a brief reign, Eddie Jones has done untold damage to Australian rugby.
Jones has left the Wallabies coachless, abandoning his post after just 10 months to duck the fallout in November of what is sure to be a scathing review into the 2023 World Cup fiasco. It leaves Rugby Australia to find a coach willing and able to sift through the rubble and build a squad capable of restoring pride in the gold jersey at the 2027 World Cup on home soil.
Jones has left the Wallabies leaderless, having churned and burned six different captains in his nine Tests in charge yet empowered none for leadership going forwards. Australian rugby needs to appoint a permanent captain and spiritual leader, someone who projects strength, decency and honour on field and whose face and feats can sell tickets off it.

Eddie Jones heads for Wallabies exit as Rugby Australia’s great gamble fails

Jones has left players leaderless, having exiled loyal servants, spurned others who fled for kinder postings overseas and scarred the lambs he sent to the World Cup slaughterhouse. Those who stayed and trusted Jones to guide their careers have been abandoned, while he never even bothered to meet the women’s side he was to mentor and take professional by 2029.
And Jones has made Rugby Australia look clueless. By rushing to give him the reins to the men’s and women’s program only to have him decimate the former and ignore the latter, RA have delivered disaster to player morale, disillusionment to long-suffering fans and greatly devalued rugby’s brand for all current and future sponsors and broadcasters.
All these parties, and the media Jones belittled and blamed, have a right to feel betrayed.
Doubly so if media reports are proven correct that he was interviewing for the Japan job even before Australia’s World Cup campaign got under way. It leaves RA in an invidious position: they rolled the dice on Jones and lost. How can they now win back trust?
First step is the Board must step aside and reapply for their jobs (Hamish needn’t bother)
Once they have a board that the rugby public can accept, then we can worry about a coach and restructuring of aussie rugby.
'Completely unfair': Eddie sledge that angered Waugh, new coaching contenders emerge to rebuild Wallabies
Actually Eddie is a psychopath, as is the Hamster, not unusual in a CEO/Chairman, however a terrible personability type for a coach.
If Eddie continues with the Wallabies, it will be an interesting contrast to watch when we play the All Blacks, with Scott Robertson being almost the polar opposite personability wise of Eddie.
Yes Eddie, we really are sitting here thinking 's--t, what's this bloke on about?'
So first it was “smash and grab” going to win the rugby championship and the bledisloe, Reboot, we are gunna win the world cup, (smash and grab), now it takes 6 years to win the world cup.
So Jones needed to start 2 years ago.
Eddie Jones is the best gaslighter since Scottie Morrison, no truth even exits his mouth
just whatever will get him through the interview, i am waiting for Jones to roll out the classic Morrison ” i reject the premise of your question” and we will know Eddie has jumped the shark.
Wallabies CONFIRMED: Gordon benched as Eddie banks on Ben Donaldson, star returns for do-or-die RWC clash
i take it that’s satire, really Farrell has a history of shoulder charge/tackles and has been incredibly blessed(/ lucky he plays for England) otherwise he would probably have been rubbed out of the game.
The farcical nature of the outcome has rugby looking pathetic and divided on the safety of players, which world rugby has been claiming is their highest priority.
'Mockery', 'broken game', 'laughing stock': Rugby rages as red card reversal clears Owen Farrell for World Cup
well that was a load of nothing, so the team that scorched Argentina and belted the boks hasn’t been tested? whereas Australia who got scorched by the boks and piped by Argentina are really the ones who will test the All Blacks!
Eddie is great for a quote however as his Pommie stint showed in the end he is more mouth than results, anyway good luck to the Wallabies next weekend.
'Fancy ourselves against New Zealand': Eddie excited for 'highlight' of year, says Bledisloe result won't define RWC
They are not a race, they are the first nations of this land. You say ” I do not want any special privilege or right or power of any sort to be given to any one or more races.” what do you think all the special interest groups , fossil fuel, banks, airlines, in fact all those lobbyist’s from money, earned from this land, lobbying for their narrow, greedy ends.
And you don’t think the original people from this great land deserve to be heard.
You are an example of what is wrong with conservatives, shame on you.
Rugby News: Ex-PM says RA has succumbed to 'moral blackmail' after 'regrettable' Voice stance revealed
what another kiwi in the wallabies!
'Could be a zinger for World Cup': RA chair says Eddie is in NRL's 'heads' as star name dropped
But you need a pack, you won’t find that in league.
'Could be a zinger for World Cup': RA chair says Eddie is in NRL's 'heads' as star name dropped
You mean league, don’t pretend it’s rugby, don’t try to gloom onto the name , stick with your six tackle and kick name
'Could be a zinger for World Cup': RA chair says Eddie is in NRL's 'heads' as star name dropped
You are a serial pest, no rugby league team (club or international including the Kangaroo’s) would come within a bulls roar of the top 10 rugby teams.
You should rename yourself : Dick and Head, it would suit you perfectly.
Revealed: Wallabies trio set to return in massive boost for Reds as Vunivalu's chance to impress arrives
Funnily enough these “talent spotting professionals” seem to spend a lot of their time watching NZ schools rugby and so RL is dependent on NZ Rugby for a lot of their talent.
For such a professional sport you would think they would produce nearly all their athletes from Oz not rely on little on NZ rugby.
Find someone who looks at you the way Eddie Jones looks at rugby league
Disagree, workmates is terrible, misses more tackles than he makes and attempts bugger all.
Yes he looks great running with the ball, however he doesn’t do much of that either, in reality he is lazy and generally uninvolved unless there is a try on offering.
My feeling the reds will be better off without him.
CONFIRMED: Tupou signs multi-million dollar deal to stay with Rugby Australia - but he's leaving the Reds for rivals
Harsh and funny, excellent
thank you.
The key reason why RA should break the bank to sign Scott Robertson as next Wallabies coach
Sorry Joe that’s just rubbish, he went far beyond what could be expected, considering the cattle.
The key reason why RA should break the bank to sign Scott Robertson as next Wallabies coach
Well Tony it depends on the soup, Minestrone gets better, Jewish chicken soup is fantastic first up, no so exciting on reprise.
The key reason why RA should break the bank to sign Scott Robertson as next Wallabies coach
So the patented “aussie way” Eddie Jones has had the biggest talent pool and the most money ie resources to play with, yet has achieved sweet fa.
Perhaps instead of shouting your bias (aussie aussie aussie oi) you could actually look at reality and be thankful you don’t have Ian Foster destroying your hopes and dreams.
Rennie’s World Cup future up for discussion after Eddie Jones’ sacking changes everything for Wallabies
well Lomax, that was a seriously pathetic attempt of a blame and patriotism appeal.
Wallabies limp to Wales with massive injury issues, and staring down barrel of worst year since 1958
Bodger by name and nature, so the coach, Rennie, backs his players selected, and somehow in your brain that means he “has no pride in the jersey”
Why Donaldson’s miss was the best thing to happen under Dave Rennie
You definitely have a problem with reality, So which team as the winner of super rugby the last 3 seasons, hint it wasn’t the Chiefs, seriously, you need to open your other eye.
