Two world cups in a row – could this perhaps be the best playing group and coaching staff we’ve ever seen?

On a side note, I hope our next coach continues the hard work Eddie did for the future of Australian rugby and also leaves our best players out of all Wallabies squads.

The joy of Rugby World Cup celebrations only ruined by Eddie Jones’ final act

Why do you love Chieka so much biscuit man?

Chieka is that you?

Yeah it can’t be Chieka. I don’t have the stamina to go through all this again. He went alright with Argentina, but they had a very easy run to get that far and it was very hard to tell what he wanted them to do, just like when he was here.
The whinging about the ref brought back the memories too.

John Howard backs him 😂
That blokes got form with backing people who need to go.
“I’m not a quitter”, but you are also not very good at your job, Hamish. You need to just go.

Reckon it’d be the rubbish performance rather than the walk out.

Eddie Jones quits as Wallabies coach - 'Sometimes you have to eat s--t for others to eat caviar'

Hallelujah! Only one clown to go now. Come on Hamish, your turn!

I hope the next one doesn’t come with backing from Christy.

Eddie Jones quits as Wallabies coach - 'Sometimes you have to eat s--t for others to eat caviar'

We are like France in 2019, actually no, like zealand in 2007. We need to keep Eddie, no we need to get rid of him, but none of this is his fault because as a nation we are uncoachable and bad at rugby…
This is such obvious click bait, because the analysis is poor and inconsistent.
These blokes at RA couldn’t run a single decker bus, no team would perform with such bad administration.
The only good thing they’ve done is go massively in debt to buy the Roosters back up winger 😂

Wallabies are where the All Blacks were in 2007 - it's time to look in the mirror or risk more embarrassment

I think the weather seemed to suit England a bit better, but they do like to play this way. It seems to be their natural game since Hartley/Farrell, and I think it’s what Eddie meant when he was telling us ‘possession rugby is dead’ and had us kicking everything. He had his time with England in mind.
Anyway.. great to see it all out of the World Cup. And Farrell should have been sent off for his carry on. What a horrible captain.

SPIRO ZAVOS: England's bully boy, no rugby display against Boks is the game they play in hell. Now for the salvation

Whether he has the ‘passion’ or the ‘motivation’ to continue shouldn’t come in to it. All that should come into it is that he is totally useless, has burned so many bridges, put most of the rugby viewing public off the game and made the sport a joke.

Eddie Jones says he needs to 'give myself an uppercut' but '100 percent' committed to coaching Wallabies

The team also doesn’t seem to respond too well to Farrell. I don’t think it’s any coincidence their best recent performances haven’t had him involved.

REPORT: Eddie Jones to quit Wallabies and join Japan as head coach

I think he was well suited to England, had a lot of good players coming through at that stage and used to be able to get good assistants, who kept some of the more wild ideas from being used. By the time he had gotten to us a second time, the assistants were just sycophants and people keen to get some quick international experience.

REPORT: Eddie Jones to quit Wallabies and join Japan as head coach

Yeah.. this can’t be true. Eddie didn’t have an interview 😂 😂 😂

Fantastic article.

Chasing Headlines, Missing Marks: Why Hamish McLennan can’t remain as Rugby Australia Chairman

At the moment, the Irish, South Africans and the French really seem to understand how to best play the game to the current rules. They’re understanding trends in attack and defence and putting them to the best use.
It’s absolutely criminal that 2/4 of the top teams are going home next week.
Great article, Australia does have a lot to learn from these tops teams. It seems we don’t have a clear understanding of rugby at the moment, and as a few have pointed out, confuse it with league when it’s like comparing tennis with squash. The similarities are very superficial.

'How much does Australian rugby want to learn from the world?': Why you've got to stay tuned into World Cup

Read the Sydney morning Herald piece about why the Angus Crichton deal fell through. His manager reckons some journo in France knew about it all before he did!
Christy is in France.. and also how else would the Roar be able to support all these journalists? Clearly a deal was done to put Christy here breaking news from RA, getting the story out and doing RA’s PR.
It would have been subtle and not appeared so ridiculous if the wallabies had had some success, but given RA couldn’t be trusted to run a single decker bus, but still want to tell us how good their decisions are, it’s bleedingly obvious something is up.

The Wallabies' World Cup campaign was a disaster from start to finish - but sacking Eddie Jones isn't the answer

I reckon he’s already got the comms job for them. That’s how he gets all the inside info. All he ever writes is their puff pieces. He’s told what to say.

The Wallabies' World Cup campaign was a disaster from start to finish - but sacking Eddie Jones isn't the answer

Of course this guy is going to say don’t sack Eddie.. thanks for the daily RA propaganda.
and if the only reason he can’t go is that Hamish signed him on too expensive a contract, and for too long, he has to go too (he should anyway) because that is a monumental error, showing no insight and very poor understanding of the game.

Nobody’s questioning how hard Jones works, it’s the quality of the work he does.

Nah, it was the rubbish tactics and strange selections, Eddie.

Exactly.. and what’s the excuse for winning the semi final then?
We need a new story from RA to equate that with bailing out in the pool stages.

Exclusive: 'Seismic shift' as Waratahs to hand over keys to RA in boost to reform push - others to follow

Yes we were “fortunate to progress past the quarter-finals after an incorrect penalty call” in 2015, but we also won the semi, and what run to a final doesn’t involve some luck… don’t try and equate it with this poorly coached train wreck of a campaign where we squandered more luck in getting the easiest pool ever.

The Waratahs would hand over the keys because they have managed themselves into bankruptcy and their talent identification is poor, but if all that comes out of this failure of a World Cup is that rugby Australia tries to remove the brumbies or merge them, they are stupid beyond belief. Who, except a club desperate for their debt to be wiped would trust these clowns? Eddie and Hamish to go!

The problem is that the man with rugby’s chequebook doesn’t understand much at all, let alone the difference between the sports.

SPIRO ZAVOS: Eddie Jones' coaching flaw is his belief that rugby is the same game as league

This bloke is as much a clown as the rest of them. Call a spade a spade!

“Hindsight is a wonderful thing”, but so is being perceptive enough to figure that Jones is past it, his selections were woeful and his tactics make it seem like he needs a HIA.

“And you’re not going to win World Cups or win international games if you don’t have that depth and system supporting the national team.”
No… And most teams wouldn’t win playing their 19th choice 5/8.

And the whole ‘Eddie’s not lying to us this time, I asked him’.. RA seems like a desperate, jilted lover. He lied multiple times, and RA kept going back to him for assurances.
