RWC Pool C - Australia v Wales - 5AM 25 Sep AEST

[LeCheese]

Capitulation aside, it's a very small comfort to see a lot of the boys breaking down on the field - they clearly do give a fuck, and it's pretty devastating that they couldn't execute.

Eddie Jones deserves to be hauled over the coals

But anyone thinking getting rid of him will make us good is dreaming. Our entire system was a broken, and players atrocious

 

[Tomikin]

Pretty harsh on the Rebels.

Remove and insert any 4 of the bottom teams... not saying it should be a Brumbies team, they play a game that other international teams are better at.

 

[LeCheese]

This could just be the death of Australian rugby

One way or another, you'd think it has to be a fork in the road

It makes it worse. They were doing their best and we still lost by 40 points to Wales

the reset for rugby in Australia starts with getting rid of the flop that is Harrison. How can he work for STAN and RUPA? Is that not a conflict of interest? He doesn’t care. He’s just lining his pockets .

 

[Equalizer]

This could just be the death of Australian rugby

Australian rugby has been in the grave for 15 years

 

[Wallabies]

Kind of see this loss as a good thing, as @LeCheese said, this is fork in the road. A rude awakening for rugby australia and hopefully they realise what they've done isnt working.

SBW is going nuclear on the coverage

A week ago I said that we could lose to Portugal and Eddie would survive as he is being touted by Mclennan as part of the 'solution' and that this RWC would be touted as the pain we needed to go through

Now I am not so sure. We've been embarrassed on the global stage and I don't think EJ (Eddie Jones) (Eddie Jones) will ever retain the goodwill of the fans / community, given that he is going to be working against the same systemic issues for the next four years that have plagued the game for a generation.

Does he survive? I doubt they can afford to buy out his next 4 years

If Eddie loves Australian Rugby MUST resign to save money for RA. If he loves the money over the game, then we know what he's gonna do

Channel 9 detonating the coverage 5secs after full time is pretty funny.

Try and delay the mass Australian public from seeing the score until as late as possible.

SBW is going nuclear on the coverage

Crazy that a former All Black seems to care more than all these former Wallabies

 

[KOB1987]

The press conference is going to be interesting. Very.

 

[Brumby Runner]

Always thought he was shit but can everyone get over Pone now? The run backs from drop outs don’t win matches

Agree on Pone. But there's a few more who also deserve that description, especially Koroibete, Kerevi, Arnold (so much for overseas picks) and who would have guessed, Donaldson.

Tate tried hard but was totally outclassed by Davis. But of course, that was all the forwards fault (sarcasm). He did very little in the first half with 70% possession. And never let anyone claim hereafter that Porecki is a consistently good lineout thrower.

Eddie's new game plan of Rugby Legion has well and truly been shown as a failure. He is the worst coach our Wallabies have ever had, in both iterations. Players had issues but the greatest contribution to this disaster has been Eddie and his League assistants.

We've been shit with at least five coaches now. Eddie is not the problem. Well at least, not the main problem.

I mean, the others have been pulling their punches a touch, but all have been very critical

This is a new low. 40-6 against Wales. Wales, the same team that lost against 13 vs England, the same Wales that South Africa beat by 50

Michael Hooper of all people going in to bat for Eddie Jones

Michael Hooper of all people going in to bat for Eddie Jones

More proof he should have been there as a senior player.
