Tale of 2 Australian coaches. One wants to play the game in a way the players & supporters will love & trusts that, with good coaching, the results will come. The other insists on his plan, everyone following his detailed instructions, and creates an atmosphere that destroys instincts & creates fear. What a pity that Ange coaches another code.

Yes Eddie, we really are sitting here thinking 's--t, what's this bloke on about?'

Just a small correction, Randwick & Easts are not on the North Shore of Sydney

'Bloody disappointed: Wallabies OUT of World Cup as nation to miss finals for first time, Eddie fights for survival

The problem with Peyper is that he is unfit. He is not biased , but he blows the whistle as soon as he is fatigued, frustrating both sides .

Wallabies player ratings: Wright's rocks and diamonds nature leave 15 jersey open for RWC, winger's perfect night

Once again, panic reaction by NSW. Put a halfback in to centre with 10 minutes to go. He misses one tackle. Lets try someone else.

NSW Origin II team: Hynes pays price for dip in form, Moses, Cook recalled, Pangai punted, rising stars to debut

Sorry , the Chiefs were great but poor kicks failed kick offs plenty of penalties , I think the Crusaders were the worst of the 4 teams tonight

You are a roar Guru? What religion is that?

'Significant mistake': Hasler apologises for rainbow jersey as seven players boycott Manly game

Love the culture building at the two blues, just also beat Randwick.

Two Blues flying the flag for western Sydney in the Shute Shield

My only comment is this. If Tomkins try is called back for a penalty, would there have been any outrage from the Welsh? To say this was probably a right call just is ridiculous.

Wallabies warned as Rennie apologises for ref rant

What a pity that the class of the Kiwis on & off the field is not mirrored by the Aussies. Their carry on while Kane Williamson was doing a press conference sums them up. the Kiwi side is a national treasure on & off the field. The Aussies are not.
I look forward to the day when they take a leaf out of the Kiwis book

MATCH REPORT: Magnificent Marsh outdoes Williamson epic as Australia claim World Cup glory

Sorry ,

I have been off line for 2 days. The main one is Louis Lynagh. He is getting isolated & getting pinged, not running with confidence & does not seem to position well in attack.

Coach's Corner Issue 32: What do Scotland have in store for the Wallabies?

I have been watching the English Premier league on Stan & I have to say that the players sent back from the England train on squad to “work on their game” seem to have pretty much universally dropped in form. Is that the Eddie effect?

Coach's Corner Issue 32: What do Scotland have in store for the Wallabies?

Absolutely agree, He is a great story of overcoming many obstacles to achieve his dream. This is such a complex sport & to get to this level of performance over a short time period is exceptional.

Where is the fanfare for Jordan Mailata?

By far the most enjoyable player to watch in world rugby. I like watching an array of football codes & I have to say he is the most enjoyable player to watch currently across all codes. Just give him more of the ball!

'Pure instinct': Cheslin Kolbe's incredible rise from firefights in the street to most expensive transfer in rugby

1. Banks is penalised for holding the ball when tackled more than any other player.
2.He fails to find touch at least once every game from penalties.
3. He is a poor decision maker.
4. He looks like he plays for himself and looks for glory moments rather than the detailed
work required at his position.
5. If he was playing for the ABs & not for Aus he could be a Damien Mckenzie, but unfortunately the WBs need a solid capable fullback not a highlight reel fullback.

Wallabies DIY player ratings from Bledisloe 3: The results

Sorry Bobby, the best back for the Wallabies was Kerevi. I seem to remember he did 2 great passes leading to the first Wallabies try. His first job is to run hard then take passing & kicking opportunities when they come. With Cooper inside & Kellaway at fullback the backline will be a lot calmer. Banks needs to be punished by non selection until he eliminates his silly mistakes.

Don’t panic Dave, reasonable Wallabies fans can see what you are trying to do

Interesting one eye, clearly you have not seen similar opinions in other sports . Studs up is outlawed in football , & AFL and is clearly seen as foul play in our code. You may not like it but your opinion that it is “natural ” is absurd.

The Wrap: Rinse and repeat as sharply focused All Blacks sweep the Wallabies

Sorry Backrower, Harrison has a slow brain, he needed time in SR to make good decisions – he will have less time in an All Black test. Give him another year to develop. Keep Paisami, he is much better than most in this forum believe.

Wallabies DIY player ratings from Bledisloe 2: The results

I saw Gutherson send a poor pass from dummy half on Friday and then mouthed off at the receiver. he needs to be sat down and given some strong guidance.

Eels' lowest ebb: 'As far away from winning a premiership as they've ever been'

So the All blacks were so fired up by that comment they let in 2 first half tries , & if the Wallabies had been smart would have been losing just after 1/2 time . The Wallabies lost because of really dumb decision making in the second half, & took all the pressure off the All Blacks. Then as is usual, once the pressure is off the All Blacks they put you to the sword. Kellaway’s comment was irrelevant to the ABs performance.

Wallabies head to Perth with their tail between legs after All Blacks shellacking

Just a late reply – I never said that shute shield clubs had money, I said the Sydney rugby community had money.

'Angst, pain and suffering': Penrith boss reacts as club cut from 2022 comp

Are you seriously suggesting that there is no money in the Sydney rugby community? You are deluded. It is these decisions that remove peoples interest in the game. How about casting a vision for rugby like the rest of the world is, instead of trying to defend a shrinking wall of privilege.

'Angst, pain and suffering': Penrith boss reacts as club cut from 2022 comp

I am a lifelong Gordon Supporter. My Father, Alister Sutherland was captain of our first Premiership & coach of our second, He was also president of the club when Bob Davidson captained our third or fourth premiership. I have played over 130 games for the club. My brother over 300games. I have never been more ashamed of this great club. Rugby is about inclusion. All body shapes , all skill levels, all personal beliefs are accepted & we desire to add to the society not subtract. We are not a game of privilege , nor do we need to win at all costs. If we lose the Bledisloe for the next 50 years , but some young boys & girls get the pleasure of playing a truly team sport ,with all the associated benefits, then Rugby is doing its job. May I encourage every Sydney club rugby supporter writes to their club and expresses their total disagreement with this decision. I will also be sending a donation to the Emus to help them retain their rightful place in the Sydney rugby community.

Have you seen To’omuas passing this year!!!

Welcome back Lachie! Swinton confirmed as Wallabies name their team

Only disagree with one point. To’omua has been a real risk all this year in defence & in passing selection. He is slowing down between the ears & it shows. I hope I am wrong but Paisami/ Ikitau is a much better combo.

Welcome back Lachie! Swinton confirmed as Wallabies name their team

Sorry Peter, there are unlucky intercepts and there are bad intercepts. By any measure this was more towards the unlucky. Just like Stirling Mortlocks intercept against the All blacks in the world cup semi – nearly a try to NZ, but resulted in a try to Aus – 😢 unlucky.

Why Paisami isn't to blame for Mo'unga’s Bledisloe intercept
