No, he also said that's not his bag baby, he wants to be a hands-on coach.
But doesn't agree to centralisation 🙄

Again: he makes a couple of good points, particularly about the Islander guys getting screwed.
Utterly wrong about ranking based on pools from previous RWC. What a stupid idea.
He has never failed to express the need for himself to get involved. And sure, we lack basic skills, but mate that is from schools onward. Schools fucks the system.
When he says "no money for grassroots", he means "no money for shitty club rugby".
It is funny that he says "we never got paid" - he was on the take from well before '95

Bloody hell. Never watch the news, but was at parents while 7 news was on. Not a word about the RWC. Report on NZ vs Samoa league game but nothing about NZ vs Argentina. That isn't good.

7 news
What news? Australian, why would they give a shit
Well clearly they don't, which is a sad reflection on the state of the game here.

The reactions to this announcement on social media are not positive.
-
@Stargazer along what lines? just dont rate him or more around the bring people in rather than developing their own
-
@Kiwiwomble The latter. I've seen several comments from people who are not happy that the Tahs bring in someone from overseas and aren't developing their own players and have proper pathways for local players. Maybe the reactions would have been different if he was a star with test caps, I don't know, but he isn't.

No surprises here but I'm unaware of the different responsibilities of Oz rugby chairman and CEO-why is the former getting the pressure and not Waugh as CEO as well?

I thought a good article
yes good article but how Australia have fallen if the "expert" says they should copy Canada. (No offence to Canada meant).
Edit: Australia, whatever you do, please don't play like England.
Australia’s Wallaroos toiled honestly and earnestly but operated at a level far below Canada, England, France and New Zealand, who produced semi-finals and a final full of skill, daring and high drama.

Who is the key ally?
NSW Waratahs sign former Saracens and England U20s prop Hayden Thompson-Stringer
