I think he meant as a coach not as a manager.
'I’ve got nothing to show for it': Neill opens up on bankruptcy after ex-Socceroo narrowly avoids jail
They’re going to have to draw a sternum line on the jerseys to make this work. You can’t expect players to just know where the sternum is, in the heat of a game.
'Can of worms': Rugby Australia introduce radical tackle law reform to protect players
I’ve just come back from an x-ray ordered by my chiro. There was shocking wear and tear on my back and leg joints, which I’m told it’s going to come and get me badly within a decade. Will there come a day when people like me sue the codes? Codes, plural, in my case because I played three of them, up to first grade.
Vickery and Henson join list of legends in major concussion lawsuit against World Rugby
My daughter bought me a 4x brewery tour for Father’s Day. Seems like they only make 4x one day a week, the rest of the days they’re doing contract brewing for all sorts of craft beers. However the old formula XXX brew isn’t too bad I discovered; they should unleash it on the world
Madge is an outstanding choice for the Blues – but only if he embraces the difference of rep footy
The only way that could happen is if it was sold was an anti-AFL consortium. My enemy’s enemy is my friend…

Actually it’s a step down, for sure.

Who provided the debt and what’s the security interest?
Cash-strapped Rugby Australia sign $80m debt deal to help give game second life ahead of Lions, World Cups
True for established business, not startups. However we can assume RA is an established business, sort of. Although it’s almost at an administration point then reset. There I said it….
'Thank f--k': Why RA's new chairman has brought 'hope at last' - and won't be scared of tough calls
Often an exec chair just takes on just one of the CEO’s role where the CEO has a weakness through lack of talent or experience

The last time I critiqued the tech here they shut me down. Lazy owners sitting on the asset
'Thank f--k': Why RA's new chairman has brought 'hope at last' - and won't be scared of tough calls
I think they’re confused about what a chair is. He isn’t “the man in charge”. He’s the CEO’s boss in an HR sense and mentor, and he manages the board process. Anything else gets us right back to where we just left.

It looked to me like RA hasn’t really factored in the key stakeholder into their actions, the fans, especially the rusted on ones here. They’re very vocal. I understand it’s hard to keep everyone happy with your actions and decisions, but at the very least you’ve got to communicate what you’re doing and why. Sacking Rennie and hiring Eddie was clearly a high risk decision because it exposed RA to the ire of the fans. Poor judgement. Even if the chair tabled the motion, the whole board voted for it, so they all should go. To be replaced with folk with a better understanding of risk, and more independence from a dominant chair.
ANALYSIS: McLennan's fatal blind spot, and why his exit leaves Australian rugby in a better place and a worse one
Well it worked. I don’t give a stuff after barely skimming that article. No one knows what the future will bring, and their prognostics look and feel self serving, so I’m just going to sit back and wait for the war to be over. Hopefully in 5 or 10 years or so we can watch some good football
States not RA the issue Australian rugby is facing as Wallabies great calls on reform measures to be backed
In Vegas per chance?
Don't mention the war chest: NRL gearing up for rugby raid makes strategic sense but won’t change much
NZ rugby did better with Thorn and SBW. Maybe the league clubs should raid the all blacks instead and do us all a favour

Let’s call it the “zero magic round”
COMMENT: Congratulations, AFL - 'Opening Round' is the dumbest thing you've ever done
Get out, I’ve never heard such rubbish. How dumb do they think we are?
'Talent to beat the All Blacks': Ex-Wallabies coach's bold call following 'hash of a year'
Maybe he is a good choice for the blues after all…
Maguire proves his coaching pedigree by smashing both World Cup finalists to the merry tune of 80-0
They don’t call him the big show for nothing. Maybe he has to wear a camel back full of staminade for the semi?

Seriously, you sack a guy like that after 3 losses? Who’d be a football coach
No delay Talay: Sydney FC announce new manager just a day after Corica's sacking

Bats hit crazy distances: Joy of six diminishes as modern chunks of willow turn average batters into master blasters
Who’d sign up for the job now given what they did to Rennie? RA board has to go too or the answer is no-one qualified
Read it and weep: Eddie made Wallabies fans 'eat s--t' for 10 months - here's every bit of BS he uttered
True but they didn’t actually need the new stadiums. That was a freebie you’d take if you could. Football needs quality it doesn’t currently have. Thats for the code to figure out for itself.
Can Matildas' continued sell-outs prove the genius behind Ange's drive for change in Australian football?
If your solution requires politicians, no matter what the problem, you’re up the proverbial creek.
Can Matildas' continued sell-outs prove the genius behind Ange's drive for change in Australian football?
I couldn’t agree more. How many wooden spoons does it take for a board to realise they’re the problem? Having said that I don’t think ex NSW premiers are good for anything other than god-fathering the NSW cartel.
