The only thing holding him back now is him.
Meaning is the front runner this year at present.
Your views on well documented on Mounga Jacko and that’s OK, it’s just proof that no one is right all the time 😛

Now tell me that wouldn’t be entertaining Cam 😂 😂

I really do wish Damien all the best.
The only thing holding him back now is him.
Sometimes he has been guilty of taking the game on alone and not managing the team as well as he should.
If he can find the balance he and naturally we will have a good year.
Good luck to him.
Just a side note, his father may be from Woodlands but his mother is a Bluffy 😛

Everything and everyone is negative towards England in New Zealand Brendon, you know that!
Question:
If the All Blacks do win 2-0 will there be crushing pressure on Borthwick being beaten by a New Coach and Rookie to boot.

Let the mind games begin ... What Razor's expecting to see from Joe's Wallabies

JOC needs to except and focus on a mentoring role, baring injury of others.
Depth and talent needs to found and nurtured for 10 and 12 (and not just there) for Queensland and Australia at the moment.
It’s not just JOC either, everyone of his era and knowledge base needs to get behind Franchise and Wallaby development. Putting the up and comers in-front of themselves.
Fine tuning, developing and mentoring.
Now that’s not likely to happen, but wouldn’t be wonderful.
On the other hand I say play if there is no one ready to step up. Because that part is not on him.

I don’t know what this game would be called.
It certainly wouldn’t be rugby and probably wouldn’t be game I would like to watch.
More Scrums I say, not less.
Scrumming is what sets this game apart from the rest.
Well line outs as well, but spectators hardly go Wow at a Line out.
To get under and pop your opposite to see his feet dangling in the air or put his chin through his belly button or bore in to a hooker until he practically passes out. Oh yea, that is Rugby.
My personal favorite was the slight glancing blow when engaging, a half a head but if you like.
What they have done with scrums needs to be looked at and Rucking for that matter. Nothing gets the crowd up like a back rolling at speed out the back of a ruck.
More Scrums I say, but lets rewind and make them proper Scrums.

For popularity you could always blame Captain James Cook.
If he never landed here there would be no Wallabies in the first place for a less than smart first 5 or conspiring frog to muddy a magnificent All Black win.

Yep, Sorry mate 😔

'Whatever was best for the team': The accidental Wallabies captain who gave RA 'everything' for post-RWC review

I’ve heard that somewhere before 😛

That word should placed into the box of words that should never to be used again.
And it’s not Bluff 😔

Sorry about previous Tom for some reason I thought you were talking about Porecki.
Yes I agree with your comment. 👍

Apologies to all 😂

Careful K. Apparently this is mind games

I wouldn’t describe him as a dominant hooker Tom but I would say is solid as a hooker.

Although I think he will be in for a look with JS I think the squad should be on notice. No one is a certainty.
New vision a new game plan anything can happen.
Personally I think we have seen the last of Mr Skelton. But that is just my opinion.

I think a bit of ABBA would have been better T.
How about “Knowing you Knowing me” 😛

Let the mind games begin ... What Razor's expecting to see from Joe's Wallabies

Good on him Jez, you would expect that from any serious coach.
I suspect JS would have done the same.
Eddie might have thought, “well it’s boys being boys”. 😔
Maybe not but it wouldn’t surprise me.

I can see a few detentions and maybe the odd flick of the cane in the near near future for some of the Wallies 😛

Mind game alright.
Robertson says he’s expecting Australia to bounce strongly back for the annual Bledisloe Cup battle now they’re in good hands with Schmidt at the helm.
or
Robertson said the veteran coach is the right man at the right time for the Wallabies.
or
“He’s got a great CV – he’s a good pair of hands and is experienced so it’s good timing for Australia and him,”
or
“There’s no outs. You’ll know where you need to be on the field and know what the expectations are of you.
or
“He’s a great rugby mind. He’ll be clear.”

That Scott Robertson, you just can trust what he says 😔

It’s not unusual he doesn’t get it.
Now that’s a good one 😂 😂 😂

'How do I get out of Australian rugby?' Wallaby's anguish after year from hell - and why there are 'no excuses' for Rebels

Jacko, my wager is that Eddie had forgotten what it was like working for a union without England’s mega million pound budget.
I said the very same thing when he was appointed and got smashed by the “Eddie Supporters”.
But there is no value in “I told you so”.
A lot of truth in that for me.

At least he didn’t say “Learnings” 😔
