'Devastated' Dave Wessels' frank assessment of Rebels woes
Melbourne Rebels coach Dave Wessels says he is “devastated” after his side were blown off the park by 51 points against the Chiefs and missed out on the Super Rugby finals.
The Rebels needed only a win to secure a spot in the playoffs but lost their last three matches of the season.
Wessels didn’t hold back in his assessment of what has gone wrong for the Rebels, telling media he believes there is a certain “softness” that has become part of the group, and even went as far as to criticise his own performance in recent weeks.
Failure to make the playoffs is a big blow for the Melbourne club, who have yet to have made it beyond the home and away stage of the campaign in their nine seasons.
