The one and only Wallaby Coach thread

Sir Arthur Higgins

Alan Cameron (40)
I agree we were better under rennie wnd letthing him go was moronic and we hired a moron but let’s move on please.
Who is our coach and assistants
Who is high performance head
Can we get a mick byrne type player to do skills again at super and senior club level - berrick Barnes and giteau split the country?

I can't believe that everyone is still circling the same point (well, it's a rugby forum, I've been here a while, so maybe I can).

Just because some people think getting rid of Rennie 1 year to go on his contract was bad, doesn't necessarily mean that they think he was a brilliant coach.

It's not a mutually exclusive argument - and to argue that we'd be as shite or better under Rennie as we were under EJ (Eddie Jones) is just clutching at hypothetical straws - lets just move onto who's going to come into this steaming pile of dog poo that is the Wallabies coaching set up

How do I post this without rodha reading it?

Nucifora has now finished up with Ireland...

Pretty sure from last reports he's still not keen on helping out Aus Rugby - don't know if he's actually softened on that view recently.

I think you'd sooner stop the tide with a broom than prevent rodha reading this and I'm going go out on a limb here by saying he's likely to make a comment along the lines of "lets get David Nucifora back into Australian Rugby"

And I'm sure he's going to highlight that it was actually Nucifora responsible for Robbie Deans' successes, and not his failures...

But yeah, Nucifora is not keen but hopefully it's someone they can have a discussion with.

Just to reiterate barb's point somewhat, the optimist sees a number of candidates who could fulfil a variety of roles going forward whether it's coach, DoR, high performance whatever.
