In NZ, you cannot legally interfere in a criminal action. A person left a supermarket with a trolley loaded with groceries, unpaid for. A bystander wrestled the thief to the ground and called for the police. The supermarket manager came up and told the good guy he had to let the thief go. Police said he could be charged with assaulting the crim. Go figure that one?? No, not fozzie or rugby related,, but,, 😁
'Young man with a knife': Foz confirms scary attack at World Cup
Eddie will have his nose out of joint if Foster beat him to the Japan job. I wouldn’t want to see Fozzie coaching the Wallabies, He has been immersed in NZ / AB rugby culture all his life. The change would be a hard one.
'That's one of the options': Foster admits Test coaching return possible as he reacts to Wallabies link
I wonder if the Wallaroos know they no longer have someone overseeing their performance ?? Or if they knew they ever had someone, or even what his name was?? 😁 😁 😁
Exclusive: Path clear for McKellar to return as Wallabies coach despite Leicester job, Cheika's update on future
I agree, two years ago this site produced some intelligent debates. I notice many of the regular contributors from that time no longer post on the Roar. Sadly this site is becoming more like the English forums.
Legacy vs ego: The Springboks are playing for South Africa, the All Blacks are playing for themselves
Game plan was top secret. Only those who needed to know were told about it. 😂
Wallabies lose another two young guns to World Cup injuries - but Eddie won't call up anyone yet
Why on earth do you need a separate coach for the scrums, lineouts, mauls?? Each action isn’t a 5 volume set of technological theory? .
Three head shrinks? Our town of 5,000 can’t get two. 😔
'Coaching staff is outstanding': Eddie assistant's bold call on 'eclectic' crew - despite their smash and grab flop
Maybe Eddie should employ Baldwick, he always had plenty of plans. 😁
Good, the bad, the Eddie: Rats and possums, Hoops 'like the ex being MC at your wedding' and an orgy of apologies
You guys can have Fozzie!!! He will be on gardening duties in another couple of weeks. 😁
The Wrap: With Wallabies done and dusted in 15 miserable days, who do we trust to take Australian rugby forward?
Rennie would not be laughing at the players,,, RA maybe 😁
'Bloody disappointed: Wallabies OUT of World Cup as nation to miss finals for first time, Eddie fights for survival
Ronaldo doesn’t leave his boxers out on the clothes line overnight anymore, they keep going missing. 😊
Good, the bad, the Eddie: 'Always good to kick a dead body, mate' - Jones' wry reality as Fiji rise from sleeping on floor to rugby heaven
Yes, apparently after becoming a professional player and playing x number of Tests, you get to attend Tackle School and learn how to tackle correctly. It is only a select few that get picked to attend this school. 😁
'Frustration and confusion': Rugby in 'trouble' says game's greats after England star banned in RWC
‘ In what other commercial sector in NZ would someone who’s shown are complete lack of success in their job, at every level, be given a free ticket to the top job in the country? ‘
Check out our politicians. 😢
End of an aura: Critics target Foster and 'an empire that's gone soft' after All Blacks 'lose fear factor'
Well someone has to cut the oranges into quarters? Although that someone would have to work out how many oranges are needed.
Six talking points from Wallabies versus England
I don’t even care if the WB’s were to beat the AB’s from here on, as long as the pom’s do not win the cup.
Japan into RWC quarter-finals after beating Scotland 28-21
According to MC, they don’t. 😊
VOTE: Wallabies DIY Rugby World Cup player ratings vs Wales
“We’ve talked about where we’ve come from since last year,” he said.
That would’ve been a short conversation.
Pocock to shake up Wallabies' selection mix
“The Rugby Championship is not our main priority”, as Steve Hansen offered after the All Blacks’ draw with South Africa in Wellington sounded very convenient after the result, and the disappointment in not winning was evident.
He had pretty much said this before the test. Of course he wouldn’t want to have lost, but this comp is more of a fine tuning exercise for the big event further on.
The Rugby Championship: The feet-up week
My biggest fear on hearing this, would be reading that Raelene Castle is stepping down about the same time and returning to NZ.
New Zealand Rugby chief Steve Tew to step down after World Cup
This used to be the procedure for anyone caught D.I.C in the NZ govt dept I worked for. Drunken driving, and you were gone,, untill a senior manager got pinged. Then the dept policy got changed.
Tolu Latu officially stood down by Waratahs
Geeez!!! give it a rest. Would be nice to read something about rugby for a change.
How would a Folau legal challenge affect RA?
As a 3rd grader playing back in the dark ages, I pulled on an opposition player’s jersey. Not trying to be dirty, just a spontaneous action clearing the way ahead of me. Got a smack in the mouth for it. For some reason I never did that again.
Thomas du Toit’s yellow card was spot on and there should be more of them
If Foster gets the top job for the AB’s after this world cup, and Cheika stays on, then the playing field will level out. Aussie will have Mickey Mouse, NZ will have his best mate, Goofy.
"They've got Mickey Mouse coaching": Hansen shocks with stinging Cheika rebuke
What tier one level tests are lined up for the Wallabies next year? I can’t see too many ‘easyish’ tests to blood new game plans, player combinations before Japan. Going to be hard for a new coaching team.
Rugby Australia: No guarantees on Cheika
“We need to think this though very carefully. These decisions take time you know”.
Cheika survives Rugby Australia review - for now
He missed out on the ” Royals” columns,, rugby was the next best option.
