Brutal honesty , is that like elite honesty but tougher.

'Brutal honesty': Eddie backed to follow Black Ferns' lead and turn Wallaroos into rugby powerhouse

Wise move by the hierarchy , Eddie’s intense 24hour a day rugby brain will wear even the most dedicated Wallaby spare , letting him spread the love will be a relief for both teams .
In his spare time he will look after the grass roots.
3 jobs , one man , that’s how we can afford him.

don’t know where Hippy stands in the best business but I’m sure he was the strongest.

Is Gareth Edwards the greatest rugby player of all time?

I’m betwixt and between , I well remember Eddie depowering our scrum and trying to play rugby league in his
last incarnation as an Aussie coach but I have been impressed with his results elsewhere .
we will be in no doubt as to were he stands. Choppy seas ahead.

'Major coup': Rennie axed with Eddie Jones returning as Wallabies coach on mammoth deal for two Cups

Come on John , tell us what you really think.

Kyrgios wants to be revered for antics like McEnroe but his career more like Happy Gilmore … without the trophy

Thank you . Sorta sharpens things up a bit doesn’t it ,

Warner’s epic 200 gives him chance to retire on top rather than risk sour ending in India or England

His 8 tests in India , what were the other batsmens averages . I’m too lazy to investigate but I’m sure someone will .

Yep , a pathetic mob , Warner , one of the great entertainers of our time.

'Didn't really have any support': Warner takes latest whack at CA over leadership ban ahead of 100th Test

Conde , one of those really really important people that hang around an organisation and nobody has a continental as to what they actually do.

I’m reminded of the first stone and all that , good post.

Risky for Warner to accuse CA of 'public lynching' while struggling for runs but Copeland backs him to silence critics

Ffs , Beale , the most destructive player in wallaby history.

Predicted 2023 RWC squad: 19 forwards, 14 backs and FIVE overseas picks

I reckon we’ll go alright next year. The results this year weren’t great but I believe we are a lot closer than many think .
I reckon 2 will be right on the night and 15 , but we need to keep Cooper healthy.

Wallabies Spring Tour Report Card: 9/10 discovery ends big money rival's RWC dream, back line 'rock' emerges

I’m going mad , I’m pining for Cheika.

I'm not giving up on the Wallabies, but I have no idea where they're going now

Did Foley find grass this morning , a popgun kicker with half a dozen heart attack moments each game. Was a middling player in 14/15 but has regressed in a major way since.

Wallabies CONFIRMED: Foley returns at No.10 as Rennie makes EIGHT starting XV changes for Bledisloe opener

NZ are replacing all time great players with great players . It happens , they are back with the rest of us at the moment and it’s probably going to get worse for them in the short term but I’m sure that there will be a new bunch of super superstars coming along shortly to torment us.

ANALYSIS: Forget the chaos, Ireland had the All Blacks' measure anyway

For whatever reason ( possibly because I was halfcut ) I never thought we were ever gunna lose this game. So happy for Slipper , he is a great servant of our game.

Sometimes, the Wallabies just make you sit back and go, ‘wow’

You are Cheika like with the Quade stuff , maybe you be coaching.

Did the Wallabies play champagne or cask-wine rugby?

I like the side . JOC has only ever been a manufactured number 10 and a poorly made one at that . Swain is the best swimmer in the pack and will hopefully get a couple of turnovers or scrums from the maul.
the reds were lucky to have none in the 15 , we know who to blame for that.
Wallabies by 15.

WALLABIES TEAM: JOC, Tate left OUT of 23 in Rennie's Reds purge, Neville and Porecki to debut as Brumbies dominate

I don’t know why internationals have to interrupt the club competition , there are only 22 /23 players in a test side and Australia has 150 odd super players at the moment. The comp ending in June ( and in some cases May ) is the real impediment to running the show successfully . One , maybe two internationals in Australasia doesn’t make up for a 12 team home and away completion ending 1/2 way through June.
The NRL managed a complete weekend of international footy this past weekend and a SoS and haven’t finished their season.
What’s it been , three , four weeks since we have seen an Aussie side going round . People want their footy , RA is not giving them that.

The Wrap: Is Australian rugby setting itself up to sink or swim?
