Last year, the Brumbies had better records against the non-Australian team than the Australian ones. Unsure about the Tahs the year before.

Yeah but by way of the conference system Fionn. In an "open field'?

The Waratahs made the semifinals in 2018 and the Brumbies made the semifinals in 2019. Shame the facts don’t agree with you.

What a good idea Rob. You will find that the problem is not belief : They think that they are great players with a dud coach. The problem is ability.

The oz super sides are all rebuilding till they get thrown out for being non competitive. Let me guess crusaders or Hurricanes to win with the Rebels coming last.

Saying some good things. I like how he's shutting down the "rebuilding" talk. To settle into a rebuilding mentality is to excuse poor performances. They should be training and preparing as a team that wants to compete, not rebuild.
