TWAS – and I believe they were reasonably well trained when he arrived! McKenzie had them reasonably fit and ready. And the team was at a stage or reasonable teamwork.
Rugby News: 'Doesn't seem right' - Mack urges RA to avoid Kiwi coach, Clive tells Poms to ditch 'ridiculous' ban
Hey Mack, who do you play for? Who have you committed to? Then please, “ST$%@U”.
In addition, I note that an Englishman is currently coaching Ireland. I thought that the Irish hated the English. Strange World.

Thanks TWAS – a very good question!
'An experienced 10 would have helped': Wallabies open up on on failed World Cup they'll have to 'live with'
Hamish, I see that you are masquerading with a moniker? Not nice.
FFS, the truth needs to be told and comments made as to the fact that the total Rugby Community has been saying since the team was picked by EJ!
'An experienced 10 would have helped': Wallabies open up on on failed World Cup they'll have to 'live with'
Here we go again. Christy, you must have received your payment from RA? Excellent article but only for RA. The fans are the issue and they are piixxd off! But no matter, you still keep championing RA.
The Wallabies' World Cup campaign was a disaster from start to finish - but sacking Eddie Jones isn't the answer
Scrum, 100% correct – “But sportsmanship by fans is getting virtually non existent”. This is becoming a tragedy for the sport, all sports. But scrum, it is also transgressing, or should I has has transgressed into live a long time ago. These days life has become “anything goes”, with a loss of all respect for rules, decorum and fair play and common sense. It is a poor sign of the current times and likely a breakdown in many aspects of the life we once knew. More the pity.

Five things we have learnt in the World Cup, and two we will learn soon
But RH, in my opinion, that win against the ABs in 2003 SF was more due to Gregan’s rugby nous and on-field nous, than Eddie’s coaching.
SPIRO ZAVOS: Eddie Jones' coaching flaw is his belief that rugby is the same game as league
TCFB – that is because he had: “1 bloke trying to push 2 blokes up 3 blokes bums – of which one bum was Eddie’s”!!!! 😂 😢 👍

Sorry, same comp but different name and management, that is all. But then people like to rewrite history.
‘The resume speaks for itself': Luai on the hate, the injury, the faith and why the Panthers are the best of the NRL era
jeznez – a very good read! And if enough get behind it – it might just work!
The Wrap: Wallabies scrape a win but the team, and the code, have entered Chinese water torture territory
Soapit – see my comment above. Hit the wrong reply button.
‘The resume speaks for itself': Luai on the hate, the injury, the faith and why the Panthers are the best of the NRL era
The statement – “and was quick to label his side the greatest of the NRL era on the back of the stunning comeback”. What is the NRL era? A name change does not alter the fact that the NRL is still a competition which, under different names, has been in existence since 1908, if I am correct on the year.

No I do not hate Cleary. He is one of the greatest, if not the greatest. No. 7 in the NRL. Seems I misread the statement re Jerome Luai, apologies. But any Panther that says they are the greatest team in the NRL ever, needs a reality check.
In fact, both the Panthers and the Broncos will never ever reach the heights of Souths (21) and St George & Roosters (15 each) in the old days or, in my opinion, the golden era of Rugby League. With St. George winning 11 grand finals in a row. Penrith are but a “metre” on that road to “most number of GFs in a row.
‘The resume speaks for itself': Luai on the hate, the injury, the faith and why the Panthers are the best of the NRL era
Greatest of the NRL era? I think Nathan Cleary is on something and needs to be drug tested. Fanciful thinking for the moment. Speak after next year’s grand final. for the moment you are running 2nd. Penrith have won a total of 5 premierships. The Broncos have won 6. So, Nathan, clip the lips or the brain or make certain that the “brain is in gear before the mouth opens”.

Spot on KCOL. Facts, should not get in the way of a point of reasoning with no facts.

JDK, many years ago the Broncos had a Cyril Connell since 1990 as their chief talent scout. Rugby SR sides need to each get a rugby talent scout who gets out and about and finds likely candidates; some who will fail and some who will succeed. Rugby does not do this well.
“Connell, who died in 2009 aged 81, was the Brisbane Broncos chief talent scout for almost 20 years and Bennett credits him with recruiting most of his top players during his time as coach of the National Rugby League club”.
“Connell, a former Australian and Queensland player in the 1950s, was chosen by the Brisbane Broncos founding chairman, Paul Morgan, to be a recruitment officer for the Broncos in 1990. Morgan had been a student at Brisbane State High School when Connell was the deputy principal”.
Might work you know! We need to do something!

Then I take back my comment above. Well said in apology. All of us, at some times in out life, do not think before speaking or commenting. I know the condition well! ????????????

Very poor comment! 👎

Attitude has shown to be poor, and for player comments, I honestly believe that EJ has lost the shed – and the whole 30 players have no time for the BS that this RWC has been with EJ in charge!

Sorry, the RA politics are a concern but as far as McKellar goes, he does not have runs on the board. And as for Larkham, less so.
In my opinion, both do not qualify when compared to Schmidt. All Schmidt needs to do is request the “contract he wants – and ensure he gets it” – with what he believes needs to be done and how it is to be done and with his management of how.
And with the appointment of Horne and Nucifora, then I see Schmidt as the ideal pick.
