    Exciting times ahead. First RWC cycle post-COVID, some changes in the air, and a bunch of players with a long history leaving the scene.

    Time to clean the slate and see what happens. Next stop: new Wallaby Coach!

    Only come on here to post if you can incorporate a shitty Split Enz pun.

    That was your mistake.

    Oh sorry. I still have all my chromosomes.

    I’ve never heard that song, is it from an unreleased B side or something ?

    Dream team of Fozzie and Shag.

    They can be the next in a line of Kiwi coaches to turn up, have a look at the joint, and wonder what the fuck they were thinking.

    Wrong.

    I started the puns on here ( as a defence mechanism to mask my lack of real rugby knowledge )

    I'm doing that for my own rugby club - leaguies that is, not Wayne Bennett.

    Got a bunch of kids with long history in local (Parra/Penrith) junior league ranks to line up for an U21 side next year - all 18-19.

    Are you building for a job in administration and player development for the ARU mate?

    I've had a bit of a look at the admin side of things, as I sit on a Board a level below NSWRU. It is a very closed shop, and I didn't go to the right school 🙂 neither am I prepared to compromise a few core values that would help the game 😜

    As for the player development: outside some of the pro pathways, which are jealously guarded and fucked over at times by the school system, there isn't any 😐

    One thing for sure, the Foster era and its ultimate ending will make for a fun pub conversation in 10-20 years time. How history will remember it will be fascinating.

    The RWC win would have papered over some cracks. I'm not sure the Fozz era will be seen as much more than a down period in the history of the jersey and the team

    Too true.

    Time to clean the slate and see what happens. Next stop: new Wallaby Coach!

    I wondered what Foster meant when he said he had a new coaching job..

    I'm sure as an ex-AB coach who almost won a RWC, he could get a nice job coaching a pro club somewhere
