Lads how has Rodha tricked you into arguing about what you just swore off doing a week ago? You know he gets off on this weird merry go round of nonsense, don't give in

see this is all very apt. Dctarget - Eddie & Rugby Australia are all about smoke and mirrors, McLennan the master of deceit & trickery, this deception envelops like a thick haze across this once proud organization. this sneaky manipulating behind the scenes, Eddie influencing from afar, pulling strings & levers this whole time, and inevitably Rennie falls victim to RA's underhand maneuverings under the guise of authenticity - an honorable sacrifice!

It's called the ignore button for a reason worked wonders for me, I can only see the reasonable replies to something quite probably ridiculous

This is the way.

Tuned in to see Sua'ali'i have a crack. Fucken flying shoulder to the head of Tedesco and its just a 10 minute sinbin. League is dumb as fuck - you'd have to be happy with a life expectancy of 40 to play it.

Sua'ali'i should have his own highlight thread, get hyped Aussie Rugby!!

 

[KOB1987]

I don't think Foketi & Perese deserve picks

Perese, no, not at this stage but Foketi has been pretty solid - he hasn't been helped by the players inside him. Despite that he is 2/4 in the TOTW I think. And he's been great in gold - in the absence of Kerevi he's surely in there.

Another Chook army here?

Someone has to be concerned about the lack of elegible Wallabies playing in some key positions for Aussie sides. In a Centralised system like IRFU does, this things doesn't happen. They can't produce they own big centres so they sign a reliable big centre like Bundee Aki in a long term to secure him for his national team

we were kinda relying on Samu Kerevi...still are. I think apart from the Brumbies guy all the starting 12's of late are aussie eligible right?

Stacey Ili isn’t

I actually thought the guys on the nrl broadcast tonight and the players after the game tonight handled the whole thing with class. Even brandon smith took the chance to retract his earlier statement.

Remind me why we rate League defence coaches so highly?

Patterns? Sure. Technique? Absolutely not.

That question you should ask to Eddie Jones, Michael Cheilka, Warren Gatland, Stuart Lancaster and Joe Schmidt

It is all about the clicks

John Muggleton was an incredibly successful defence coach.

John Muggleton was an incredibly successful defence coach.

From a zero base. Our first ever pure defensive coach?

 

[wamberal]

From a zero base. Our first ever pure defensive coach?

Probably. I could be wrong, but I think he had some influence in other areas of the game. Our forward ensemble attacking, for example.

Surely an international Rugby coach isn't teaching technique, it would all be patterns and structure
